What a cliché! Two thousands years of French concupiscence lusting after German purity! Those French never rest! They stand erect, even half in the coffin already!
The same old same old… the French male is strong, the German woman weak, under assault, and needs to be protected by the authorities. The newest salacious allegations are exemplary of how propaganda works. A female senior litigation lawyer called onto me, and chuckled:”I told you that was going to happen!” Indeed she did.
Here is the story: this German journalist comes to interview ex-president Valery Giscard D’Estaing (VGE, a conservative) for an hour, about his friend, Helmut Schmidt, ex-German Chancellor (a socialist). After the interview, the journalist asked the president to pose with her for photographs. Then he puts his hand around her waist, then down to her buttock, she claims, and stays there. She fights the lubricious old man with all her might, but can’t escape. Is that all? No. Unfortunately, the photos have come out unsatisfactorily. So the scene has to be repeated: he mightily grabs her pliant waist, and his old crochetty hand goes down towards her unwilling buttock. Again, with all her might the fair maiden fight. But in vain is the Walhalla summoned! Gallic “insistence” wins. Worse! Photographs have to be admired! Magnificent german buns again under assault come! What to do? Retreat to the Faterland! So they part, and the abominable harasser tries to kiss her, on the cheek, and joining psychological violence to the physical, assail her in the language of Goethe itself:”Sweet dreams!”
Contacted VGE, who sits on the French Constitutional Council (as ex-president do)l said he doesn’t remember anything.

So what was my friend’s theory? After Tara Reade’s (believable) allegations against Biden surfaced [1], this legal eagle told me there will now be lots of unbelievable, ludicrous, easily debunked “Me too” stories surfacing… such as allegations against Biden which would be easily thrown out by showing he was not even at the place at the time of the alleged attack (indeed, one such allegation magically surfaced).
The general idea is that a mood conducive to not believing any woman would be installed to make Biden disappear in a cloud of smoke. Dutifully, French authorities have launched an investigation into the sexual assault allegations made against the 94-year-old former president. German journalist Ann-Kathrin Stracke says:”I decided to tell my story because I think that people should know that a French former president harassed me sexually after an interview.” Maybe she should report that to Hitler, down there in hell, he would say:”I told you so!”.
The 37-year-old journalist accused d’Estaing of groping her backside three times while taking a photograph after she interviewed the former president in 2018, describing it as a “very degrading” situation. On the upside, she has been upgraded as an object of presidential sexual concupiscence…
“I was standing to this left, and while taking the photo, he put his hand on my left waist before sliding it to my backside where it stayed. I tried to push him away but I didn’t manage to. I felt like he insisted,‘ she said. There was a third assault when Mr Giscard d’Estaing touched her bottom again while showing her some photographs.
Ms Stracke tried to free her attacker’s hand, ‘several times and with all my strength‘. Methinks the lady protests too much, while cuddling too blatantly…
German public broadcaster WDR “backed” her allegations.
After being sexually assaulted once, I came back for more, twice, so now I am world famous and everybody knows Tara Reade was just of the same cloth… Isn’t that grand? I just had to do what I was told to do, as I told you…
After being sexually assaulted once, with a hand around a waist, I came back for more, thrice, so now I am world famous and everybody knows Tara Reade was just cut from the same cloth… Seeing sex assaults everywhere. Isn’t that grand? I just had to do what I was told to do by my superiors, as I told you they told me to do… Isn’t the establishment grand, auspicious? Do as you are told, and fame, plus a career will come your way…
The old goat was just plain too strong. He is French, you know how those French are since they make wars and win them. Four times I came, and he touched what was offered… very degrading… I am just a poor German maiden invaded by the French in Paris. A new Lorelei warning travellers against the rampaging VGE…
Speaking about fake assaults… So what were Warren’s and Sanders’ campaigns about? They now both support Biden… As if the Archangel Gabriel suddenly supported Lucifer. Against Biden the same allegations made against Trump holds, except, way worse (Trump and Biden were already adversaries in the 1980s, with then Senator Biden one of Reagan’s henchmen… although nominally a “Democrat” (Reagan passed his so-called Revolution, a revolution of greed for the few, thanks to the help of “O’Neil Democrats”, globalizing further plutocratization came out of it).
Warren and Sanders’ campaign were characterized by ludicrous proposals, which could only be rejected by voters… Such as accepting all and any immigrant (six billions want to come in!), and offering these illegals free healthcare… when average US families are bled dry by Obamacare’s high premiums, “copays”, “deductibles”, and “facility charges”…
So the end product of Warren’s and Sanders’ campaigns was to give progress a bad name. In particular, give a surtax on billionaire’s incomes a bad name… such a surtax on very high income was passed in a referendum by California voters a few years ago. Now the bad association of the idea with the disastrous, ludicrous Warren and Sanders’ campaigns insures the idea will not propagate… As intended.
Warren and Sanders loudly accuse Trump of the Corochina virus… instead of putting the blame where it belongs, at the feet of DICTATOR Xi… it is painful to watch Sanders lie in an absurd fashion, claiming the poor people are dying, thanks to Trump, while the wealthy enjoy testing… That was his question to a panel of scientists. Yes, not a question… He was supposed to ask a question, but instead came out with furiously stupid statements.
… while it is surfacing that the Obama administration wiretapped the Trump administration elect… In a “counterintelligence” probe. This is unprecedented in US administrations transitions. Even during the hateful Hoover-Franklin Delano Roosevelt transition, nothing like that happened: FDR just went on a cruise. (One may ask then if those long transitions are so smart; Britain and France operate quick transitions… The transition Hoover-FDR was even longer, though…)
Now if one asks average “Democrats” (I don’t think I know one “Republican”), she or he will tell you Trump was elected by “Russia”. They feel it in their guts.
I need to write a little essay on reasoning with guts.
Please make no mistake: I think we live in a horribly sexist society. I also believe there are plenty of assaulting males out there. However, holding the waist, kissing on the cheek and saying something nice was not considered to be assault, until recently, this side of the Islamist State, or the Catholic Inquisition.
I also believe sexism and sexualism are very big problems, and need to be completely cleared as we evolve a more intelligent society, and so that such a more intelligent society can evolve. However, claiming that a healthy and strong 35 year old woman can be assaulted by a very frail 92 year old man, and that it is HIS fault if she comes back to be “assaulted” another three times… is, per se, sexist. It’s assuming that. per his gender, the male can overpower any female, and also hypnotize her… that’s a complete, grotesquely sexist absurdity. Full grown, non-disabled, in good health, middle age women should be able to resist any 92 year old man: the physical strength curves are very clear. Let alone she should able to resist when many other people are around, and that includes the capacity of resisting the irresistible draw female journalists feel for ex-presidents….

[1] The Tara Reade story has lots of corroborating evidence, including a call to CNN Larry King by her mother, and a court document in the 1990s where her husband testified that Tara Reade had experienced sexual harassment while in the office of Senator Biden.
“It was obvious that this event had a very traumatic effect,” the ex-husband said, according to the court document, arguing that it led her to make exaggerated claims against him, “and that she is still sensitive and effected by it today.”
