https://www.rawstory.com/2019/02/billionaires-literally-torture-women-fun-depraved-world-trump-trying-create/
Acosta is now a member of Trumps Cabinet, which is sadly no surprise. Trump himself was infamously recorded in 2005 bragging about how his wealth and fame allows him to sexually assault women without consequence, noting that he likes to grab them by the pussy because when youre a star, they let you do it.
Its unbelievable but apparently true: Americas intensifying wealth inequality has created a class of hyper-rich men who act like cartoon villains. Bored of their soft and pampered lives, they literally turn to torturing women for fun.
That may sound like an exaggeration, but its not. If what men like Trump, Kraft and Epstein wanted was rare and exquisite erotic experiences unavailable to the Gap-wearing masses, that is something they can all easily afford. As the Eliot Spitzer case from 2008 showed, there are plenty of gorgeous young women who offer consensual experiences and charge a few thousand dollars a night for the privilege a price that, for the billionaire class, is less than the cost of a McDonalds hamburger to the rest of us.
But women who work as highly-paid escorts are free to say no.
The underage girls that Epstein lured from troubled homes, the women allegedly pushed into working without pay at the Orchids of Asia Day Spa, and the women Trump bragged about grabbing and kissing: What they all have in common is that they cant say no.

They respect no one and nothing but themselves - everything is their playing.
No one is safe around these people.
