We’re not even going to go into much depth into the latest smear campaign against Donald Trump. The internals must be appalling for liberals to pull a ‘Trump is Hitler’ and a Kavanaugh 2.0 double-feature. The former deals with some supposed remarks made about the infamous dictator but not before The Atlantic, a familiar factory for fake anti-Trump stories, led off with some apocryphal story about how Trump denigrated a US Army soldier who was murdered in 2020. The servicemember's family, including the family attorney, slapped down the piece as a hoax.
I've been pitched the same story. Does not seem remotely credible, but don't be surprised if you see something in the New York Times next week.

Now, with that story not gaining traction for numerous reasons, not least being that the media has peddled far too many fake stories about the former president, no one cares, and it’s too late to change the course of the race; liberals are trying the sexual assault route. The rumor is that Trump was involved in a groping incident that happened 30 years ago.
And of course, the allegation is 30 some years old and there's zero corroborating evidence. They are trying to 'Kavanaugh' Trump on the eve of the election because they have nothing else to offer the voters. https://t.co/4FsSvJ53w7

Trump groped the minor daughter of a huge donor and there's video proof so naturally the donor waited until 13 days before a presidential election to leak the story to Brian Krassenstein and some other no name Democratic strategist.

“Donald Trump groped me 35 years ago and I didn’t remember until after the 2016 and 2020 elections”

heard the “big Trump story.” It’s just as dumb and obviously fake as you’d suspect. Lol

If it’s the story I heard is being shopped, whichever outlet publishes it will certainly get sued and have to pay massively. https://t.co/EsPtPUFcXn

There is no panic in Trump circles… if you have the story of the century, you don’t bypass major outlets for minor ones.

It’s all fake. https://t.co/QxFOO8YduA
Uh, announcing your 30-year-old allegation on a Kamala Harris campaign call 2 weeks before an election is, uh…weird. https://t.co/YeKN9mT27I

It was also openly coordinated with the Harris campaign. She spoke at a Harris event on Monday, piece comes out today. https://t.co/ADF2DzUzvP

That’s right. Trump committed some heinous sex act that no one knew about until 12 days before Election Day. This little diary entry supposedly missed the hordes of anti-Trump activists and attorneys who have now made Trump the most investigated man in modern American history.
Who in Trump circles is panicking?

Certainly not my experience and I’ve communicated with six so far today. https://t.co/5fDI5jZLxH
As Joe Concha succinctly put it, “This allegedly happened 31 years ago. It’s impossible to prove or disprove. We’re 12 days to Election Day. Trump’s run for president twice before yet this never came out. This was pitched to multiple reporters — even some very friendly to Kamala — and only a British tabloid took the bait. This is laughable. The panic is real.”

Mark Halperin also received this story and rejected it because he knew it was also false. He also discussed why the usual suspects pitch it: if it’s true, then it’s an election killer, but it’s not. Halperin is not pursuing it. Only The Guardian, who I assume has their lawyer handy because a lawsuit is likely coming.
NEW: Mark Halperin clarifies himself after he went viral for stating he had been pitched a story that would “end Trump’s campaign.”
