Nah, this doesn’t pass my smell test. If anything of this magnitude existed, it would be published before early voting started. But deepfakes, and AI are coming, well they’re here… but uhh that’s not real. So that’s not really a story.
It passes my smell test Donald’s poop filled diaper is all over this story.
My gut says that most of the people who vote early have already had their minds made up for a long time and not much would change their vote one way or the other, otherwise they’d probably wait until the day of to see what new information might come to light in case it changes their mind.
And in general Democrats vote early in higher numbers than Republicans. This wouldn’t do much to change how the Democrats vote (what are they gonna do? Say “well I wasn’t going to vote for they guy anyway, but now I’m really not gonna vote for him?”) but you would at least hope it would for some Republicans (though that might be wishful thinking.) Since more of those Republicans are going to be voting in-person it may have made sense to hold this back so it was still fresh in their mind when they actually go to the polls.
Just my 2¢ on the matter. Take it for what it’s worth.
This is a fair point, and I agree that could be the strategy. Really I just hope it didn’t happen, and there’s no one victimized, and never something that could be recorded.
So your version of compassion towards this woman is “I hope she’s part of an elaborate election lie”?
Not sure how you interpreted that, I’m hoping the entire allegation never happened. What I’m reading in the article is reputable accounts saying “Dems have something big to release”, and the article correlating those posts with other non-reputable accounts implying it’s video of trump groping a minor.
I doubt it’s any more than a social media rumor like the kinds that frequently spread on X.
