[quote=Anonymous]Look this is a classic he said-she said rape case. I am not at all surprised that it didn't move forward because lots of rape cases come down to this and women who really were raped don't want to press charged knowing the case comes down to their testimony and whether a jury believes them. Prosecutors don't like bringing these cases for the same reason. This is so many rape cases.

But even accepting there might be a chance she's lying and he's innocent, it should be disqualifying. Because what if he's not? No one is entitled to be SecDef. It's not something he's earned and is being deprived of. It is a high honor and a critical role and it should only go to someone who has no black marks of this sort on their record. You don't want someone with anything like this in their background. Too bad for him if it turns out he's innocent but on the other hand he knew he had this in his past, didn't disclose it to Trump's team, and accepted the nomination anyway. That's his fault.

Just move on to the next option. Does anyone think Pete Hegseth is just the only person on the planet who can be SecDef? That's stupid. There are other people without this baggage. Time to move on.[/quote]
