No video released yet but the right wing blog-sphere is already claiming it's AI. Put on your seat-belts and keep your hands inside the car at all times.

This is being pushed as the October surprise on X. The MAGA Cult is so far gone I don't think much will change their mind at this time. "It was Gods will he groped her."

this is the party that wants to let rapists choose their baby mommas

I thought surprises were meant to be surprising

The maga cult already believes that women have fewer rights than men. A woman being groped isn’t going to sway them in any direction but even more toward trump.

[-] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

Plus most of them believe any women grouped by Trump should feel honored that their tangerine messiah chose to assault them.

The guy would walk in the dressing room of the Miss TEEN USA pageant, that he owned, while they were changing. Of course he’s groped minors. Unfortunately, there won’t be a video of this happening. Guaranteed.

He’s the Groper in Chief.

Definitely one of the gropers of all time.

[-] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 9 points 19 hours ago

Always has been.

[-] hOrni@lemmy.world 7 points 18 hours ago

You need video proof for that?

He is so lost these days he probably honestly thought her ass was the lecturn.

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.

[-] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 4 points 17 hours ago

It passes my smell test Donald’s poop filled diaper is all over this story.

[-] Fondots@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

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.

[-] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 3 points 18 hours ago

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.

[-] TheOctonaut@mander.xyz 5 points 17 hours ago

So your version of compassion towards this woman is "I hope she's part of an elaborate election lie"?

I doubt it's any more than a social media rumor like the kinds that frequently spread on X.
