    My hands were shaking so hard that I was having a hard time getting dressed,” said Daniels, who told jurors that she had gone to Trump’s Lake Tahoe hotel room under the belief that they would be getting dinner after meeting there.

    The one thing that always gets me with these stories is that it’s always a hot teenager or 20-something woman…and an old, rich, (and/or famous) unattractive guy. The woman always claims “I thought we were going to do anything other than have sex!”. You’re hot, he’s old/fat/rich, and horny. We all knew you were going there to fuck him and get something out of it for putting up with that. It’s a business transaction. I’d say this narrative is the most common in the decades old rape allegations that have been popping up over the past decade. I remember hearing one about a 16 year old girl that went off with Aerosmith (or another huge, all dude band) when they were in their prime and like 40 years later said “he groped me, and pinned me in a phone booth, etc…” what the fuck did you think was gonna happen lady? That you were going to go back to their hotel and play Go Fish? They only want one thing from you.

      You know, even if the victim is stupid and naive it’s still not all right to abuse that. There are always going to be blonde gold-digger bimbos around old rich fucks but it doesn’t make it all right to fuck them without consent.
