Smearing a candidate with serious allegations for political gain is disgusting, but the claims should still be fully investigated to ensure accountability and justice.

This is exactly why politics is such a mess—people will do anything to destroy their opponents instead of focusing on real issues. Whether the accusations are true or not, voters should be the ones deciding based on actual policies, not smear campaigns funded by shady groups. The government and media thrive on distraction, and this just proves how broken the system is.

Denying often means they are guilty of something. Rape is a serious charge and disgusting it's imperative to find who did it.
