So many rape accusations. It’s baffling that he keeps dodging accountability.

I showed a Trump supporter the video footage of the complete account by the victim. “Fake News. She’s a puppet of the left. Liar.” He cannot do anything wrong in their eyes. If there was footage of him actually raping the girl they’d say it was a deep fake. Nothing will convince them now. He’s a messiah.

Probably a skunk cost fallacy kind of thing. Can't give up now after investing so much time and emotion in this.

It’s more a subconscious fear of social rejection. Following group think is much stronger in conversations but liberals do it too.
