Well, it looks like the media’s latest attempt to derail President Trump’s 2024 campaign has hit a brick wall. For nearly a week, rumors swirled about a bombshell story against Trump, with anonymous sources claiming CNN and other outlets were sitting on something big. Turns out, that “something big” was a very flimsy allegation that quickly crumbled under scrutiny.
The Allegations: A Closer Look
Stacey Williams, a former model, came forward on Wednesday alleging that Trump groped her at a private party hosted by none other than Jeffrey Epstein—31 years ago. According to Williams, the incident took place in Trump Tower in early 1993 after Epstein took her on a walk from his brownstone on the Upper East Side. But here’s where things get messy: Epstein didn’t even own that brownstone at the time! In fact, reports from Vanity Fair and Business Insider indicate Epstein didn’t officially move in until 1996—three years after the alleged incident supposedly occurred.
Debunking the Timeline
Cue the timeline debunking as sleuths on X (formerly known as Twitter) quickly pointed out this glaring discrepancy. So much for the blockbuster revelation! It didn’t take long for Trump’s team to respond either. His spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, slammed these accusations as “unequivocally false,” calling out Kamala Harris’ campaign for apparently orchestrating this smear just weeks before Election Day. Given that Williams was an activist for Barack Obama and announced her claims during a Harris campaign call, you have to admit—the timing couldn’t be more suspicious.
A Familiar Playbook?
Williams’ allegations have an unmistakable whiff of déjà vu. Remember back in 2016 when Democrats thought they had finally found something that would end Trump’s political career? The infamous “Access Hollywood” tape? Voters saw through those crude remarks and brushed them off as mere “locker room talk.” Fast forward to 2024; it seems like we’re seeing the same playbook again—but with even shakier evidence!
The Polls Tell Another Story
Despite this last-minute hit job aimed at him, Trump appears to be holding steady in the polls. A Wall Street Journal survey released Thursday morning shows him with a narrow lead over Kamala Harris—just 13 days before Election Day! This is not what you’d expect if these allegations were truly damaging.
A Pattern of Overhyping Attacks
This feels like yet another overhyped media attack likely destined to fizzle out just like its predecessors did. Voters have seen this movie before—and spoiler alert—it didn’t end well for Trump’s opponents then either! Will history repeat itself? All signs point to yes.
