her book without this ex-empt would be an incredible book. with this excerpt it fills a time and space especially for somebody like me who has had the same career trajectory, to show what somebody went through of her age and time had to do to survive. the president coming out with this statement immediately after this was published online. i m going to read a little bit from it. shame on those who make a false stories of assault to try to get publicity for themselves to sell a book or carry out a political agenda. like julie swetnick who falsely accused justice brett cavanaugh. this line the president is drawing between two women accusers. this is something that trump typically does, which is pick an example of something he thinks makes the rest of the accounts or everything else just false.
