The lawsuit accusing Trump of raping a 13-year-old girl, explained
vox.com
Johnson claimed that Trump violently raped her when she was 13 at a 1994 orgy hosted by Jeffrey Epstein — the billionaire who was convicted in 2008 of soliciting an underage girl for prostitution and has been accused of having sex with more than 30 underage girls.
Johnson said Trump had sexual contact with her at four of those parties, including tying her to a bed and violently raping her in a “savage sexual attack.” The lawsuit said Johnson “loudly pleaded” with Trump to stop, but that he responded by “violently striking Plaintiff in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted.”

The general consensus is that this lawsuit was fake and started by anti-Trump members of the GOP in 2016.
And yet there is a case number and record of the case.
Case was real, one was dismissed and another dropped though. I think they're saying that the accusation was fake. The article does make it sound really suspicious, but also it mentions that it could be real but just handled bizarrely.
Exactly. Poor wording on my part, but the kicker is that none of the other Epstein victims corroborate that Katie Johnson was one of them.
Here's a current press item about the issue, dated Jul 04, 2024, Donald Trump, Katie Johnson Allegations: Everything We Know - Newsweek
…which confirms that there’s no new info.
Now, I wouldn’t be surprised if he actually did it, wouldn’t even be the worst thing he did. But that is indeed the general consensus, afaik.
EDIT: the article posted by Flying Squid would be more relevant to current events.
The Murdochian consensus, yes.
As for the rest of us, anyone who’s bothered to look can see the situation fits trump to a T.
Allegedly.
Sure
None of the other victims corroborate that Katie Johnson was even on the island. They made a real filing of fake claims.
I'm all for sticking it to Trump and punishing him for his crimes, many of which were sexual and some may have been with underage girls. However we have to be careful to focus on the things he is actually guilty of, else he will just be exonerated and get another layer of orange Teflon added to his skin.
