The L.A. Times put out a story about Schwarzenegger molesting women
They got hammered for putting out such a damaging story so close to the election
It turns out they were right about the Gropenator
As for Trump's accusers
Trump's main defense is the timing of this growing story
As we learned
Timing has no bearing on the truth

(9,275 posts)A Cosby Unit(CU) is the number of female accusations of sexual assault, harassment and related misconduct which have to be leveled at a male celebrity or public figure before a supermajority of men will believe the allegations to be essentially true. Generally a number between 40 and 60. A Savile, named after Jimmy Savile, is a number which represents the maximum height of depravity by a male celebrity or public figure. One Savile is roughly equal to 10 Cosby Units.
My prediction is that Trump will reach at least 1/3 of a Cosby Unit by the date of the final debate and at least half to 2/3 of a Cosby Unit by Election day. Ultimately he may have 2 or more Cosby Units worth of accusers.
