The allegation was against Joe Biden: > **[Have Contents of 'Ashley Biden's Diary' Been Verified?](https://www.yahoo.com/news/fact-check-posts-claim-contents-181600349.html)** > > The existence of a diary and the authenticity of purported facsimiles of a diary are two entirely different questions.

The Snopes page on the showering allegations bothers me. Yes, Ashley Biden wrote a diary, yes it was stolen by Project Veritas, yes she subsequently verified that the diary as a whole was hers. But has she ever specifically said that the two pages including the showering allegations were part of her diary? They only seem to be presented as individual pages. Do we have a thread on this somewhere? > [@Mr.Greenjeans](#): > > He didn’t build Mar-a-Lago.

Because so many of the adjectives thrown around here apply **very much** to him, starkly so as a matter of fact. This is one of the things that so confounds me about the way modern day liberals are acting: the profound hypocrisy and seeming lack of self-awareness in the way they talk and behave. And this incredibly bizarre use of the word “convict” (oftentimes in ALL CAPS) that you people love to constantly throw around, rather like children who have been given a cool new toy. You don’t even have a sense of just how incredibly empty and hypocritical that word sounds to the rest of the country when you people constantly throw it around about Trump. Never mind the fact that everyone else recognizes that almost all the (mostly phony) charges against him came about solely as a result of political warfare against the man by a corrupt and increasingly tyrannical state. Never mind that other presidents (including your Biden) have been guilty of many of the things he was charged of but let off the hook because apparently they weren’t really ‘crimes’ in any meaningful sense. Incidentally, based on your text, it seems that even you do not buy the BS that Trump ‘raped’ that porn ‘star’ whore, but that he merely cheated on his wife with her. I can’t even describe just how remarkable a revelation that is, and just what it says once again about you people. But the most ridiculous thing about the way you guys keep throwing that term around is the fact that all it does is simply bring to the minds of most people who are fairly objective observers the fact that we literally have other politicians walking around who SHOULD be convicts but are not!! (Apparently because they are members of the establishment.) One obvious example is of course good’ol Slick Willie, who I already mentioned, who is a **serial rapist and adulterer, and assaulter of women** , and possible child molester (given his previous close connections with the late Epstein). And if we really wanted to get into it, we could probably throw in additional terms like ‘money launderer’ and ‘con man’ (through his so-called ‘foundation’), and maybe even ‘murderer’, if we wanted to get conspiratorial. But you get my point. This name-calling game is one that can _so easily_ be played by all sides that it defies belief that supposedly ‘mature’ people like you are playing it so childishly with such complete absence of any self-awareness or hypocrisy whatsoever. And speaking of childishness, this nonsense about throwing around the word ‘troll’ simply because someone who doesn’t post often happens to have opinions that are contrary to the status quo within an echo chamber. It’s pretty obvious at this point that there are very few if any rational minded people left here. And this is just a microcosm of what has happened over the past decade or so in America, where dissent has become increasingly suppressed and eradicated from various platforms altogether as the state (and its leftist supporters) become increasingly fascist. But go ahead and call me ‘troll’ all you want, or whatever name makes you feel better. ETA: Btw, the illogical and puerile nonsense about “no, it was only a quarter of the country” rises to a level of imbecility that beggars belief and doesn’t even deserve an ounce of response. ---
