I am afraid it doesn’t really matter. Trump now claims to be a born again Christian I believe. Why doesn’t he just release the Epstein files? His MAGA Christians will just say their God is a forgiving God and Trump has repented.
Vance and Johnson as second and third in line make him likely unimpeachable or removable under the 25th Amendment though it likely never would happen regardless.
The trauma never goes away. It’s been 50 years. The trajectory of my life was changed forever because they asked me as a 9 yo if I wanted to press charges.
Thank you for writing and sharing this piece. I have a similar story which never completely goes away, even though it is almost 60 years since the abuse ended and I still go to therapy. A female doctor told me once that she hears it over and over. Men with power, be they president, counselor, step father, whatever creates so much pain and suffering.

You are seen. It was wrong. May your abuser live lifetimes of repentance.
Thanks for reposting Gaetz of Hell--I hadn't seen it before.
This kind of damage is deep enough to change your freaking DNA.
