Trump claims female migrants 'are raped at levels that nobody has ever seen before'

Making false claims about an imaginary report doesn't help that.

What came out on Wednesday that he was referring to and when he talked about "where the journey coming up" if he wasn't referring to the caravan, what other journey did he mean?

I need someone who speaks Trump to translate?

I actually posted and others have posted that what he said is 100% correct.

I thought everyone had that already figured out. No matter what he says, people talk about it, thus amplifying the topic, which is the reason he talks the way he does.
 
This was his remark:



Why don't you give the citation that shows where it came out on Wednesday that women are being raped at levels nobody has seen? Also, it was implied to be the caravan. You can ignore that if you want.

And....we showed citations that state that women get raped at roughly 80% when trying to get to the US.

What evidence is there that this is no longer the case?
 
Yes, and if 80% of them were getting raped in past caravans, what is the new "level nobody has ever seen before"? 95%? 92? That's what I keep asking. My thread was about the remarks from the President. Not about the women getting raped.

Please do some research then you will actually be informed. a few years ago it was about 60%.
lately they have upped that number to be between 60-80%.

why are you ignoring factual information for your TDS ranting?
I am sorry but trump is correct.

there are a large number of immigrant women that get raped this is a fact supported by
several international organizations.

According to Amnesty International 60% of migrant women and girls are raped while migrating, while other data indicate that 80% of women experience rape and sexual assault during the migration process.
Women also experienced or were at risk of rape, assault, extortion, and other threats, which 64% of the women cited as their main reason for migrating to the United States.

seems to me that he is pretty accurate in what is going on. This confirms other news stories i haves seen on this.

And what is the new level of rape that nobody has ever seen before that Trump was referring to?
 
No. But I guess you believe all the negative stuff about Trump they came up with is true then right?
I don't know anything about fusion. I know I do believe that women are being exploited trying to get here. The only thing that seems to be in dispute is how many. Most seem to agree that it is happening.

I am asking for the specific report the President mentioned that came out on Wednesday showing new levels.

do you not find 60-80% unprecedented? i sure do.
define your definition of unprecedented?

They have been posted in this thread several times.
 
I have seen no reports dated April 4, 2018 that the President referred to.

go read this thread. it is amazing the amount of information that has been posted in here already.

The thread is about what Donald Trump said:

“They're not putting their good ones,” Trump said. “And remember my opening remarks at Trump Tower when I opened. Everybody said, 'Oh, he was so tough.' And I used the word 'rape.' And yesterday it came out where, this journey coming up, women are raped at levels that nobody has ever seen before. They don't want to mention that.”

Where and what came out on Wednesday? I have not seen that specific information that he was referring to posted.

I have no idea. Here's what I'm responding to...

A thread bashing and denouncing something that was said, not because was untrue or dishonest, but because of who said it, and nothing more.

If it had been almost anyone else decrying the plight of migrant women being raped at astronomical levels, to the point that they take birth control just for the journey (!!!), you and Tres would be in that thread leading the charge, saying how good it is that someone addresses that topic.

Is there any reason that you seem to be one of the only people who understands this thread?

I admit, it is hard to take some who has shown so much disrespect for women serious about topics that have to do with women.

Also, I would applaud someone who can intelligently point out the plight of women migrants without referring to imaginary reports that never came out. This is not the case.

Oh stop the hyperbole and the whining about this thread, and tell me and Americanwoman exactly what Trump was talking about. None of you have done that, no matter how many times we asked.
 
He was talking about migrant women getting raped at unheard of levels. I thought that was obvious?
 
Oh, you're right! It's been happening before, so why bother doing anything about, right? And certainly don't mention it, certainly don't call attention to it, right?

How does sending them back constitute doing something? Demonizing them is helping them doesn't quite add up.

Trump demonized the women being raped?

Expand on that please? I thought we were talking about what Trump supposedly said according to CNN?

He said this:

“They're not putting their good ones,” Trump said. “And remember my opening remarks at Trump Tower when I opened. Everybody said, 'Oh, he was so tough.' And I used the word 'rape.' And yesterday it came out where, this journey coming up, women are raped at levels that nobody has ever seen before. They don't want to mention that.”

What came out?
