Evidently feeling like they need to up the ante after the first try sputtered out earlier this month and that yet another credible accuser came out against convicted felon former President Trump – this time linking him to notorious dead sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein – the Daily Mail is once again propagating an anonymous woman’s allegation that her ex-boyfriend, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, “forcibly slapped” her for flirting with another man at a 2012 party in Cannes, France.
The Mail still won’t identify the woman – just calling her “Jane” in the article – but includes pictures of her with Emhoff at the time, her face completely blurred out. “Jane” tells the Mail that she was spurred into “speaking out” because of Emhoff’s denial and she’s upset by “watching this completely fabricated persona being portrayed… He’s being held out to be the antithesis of who he actually is.”
What’s interesting about this is that, per the first report, the three sources who said they witnessed the incident had “requested not to be named due to fear of retaliation from Emhoff” which should indicate they feared for their friend too.Now this accuser shared photos of herself with her face blurred out, ones that Emhoff would almost certainly be able to identify himself and who he was with. Meaning that if the woman actually feared retaliation she would not be subjecting herself to potential scrutiny that could (probably will) reveal connections to Trump, Russians, et cetera.
