   Which is what I said, rephrased.  Trump used some of Bill's alleged   
   victims against her at a debate.  I say alleged because they lied. How   
   do I know they lied?  Because they waited years, some even decades   
   before speaking out.   
      
   So, let's assume your argument vis a vis Bill.  Why should anybody   
   believe those women?  Why didn't they report it at the time?  Why did   
   they wait until he was running for and then became President to speak   
   out?  And why did they consent to attend a debate and tell their lies   
   in public?

   or the 1% is that the government is ultimately answerable   
   to the voters - the 1% are answerable to no one.
