    I guess my concern here is in the chilling effect. Sexual assault is already under-reported.

    If we make the process more onerous for the victim (or "accuser" if you prefer), that gets worse, not better. And schools have always been reluctant to bring in real cops.

    What happens now?

    Has he gone a single day of his Presidency without tweeting?

    It’s a legitimate concern, but I’d argue the “real cops” created the chilling effect. The way sexual assaults are handled in police departments - and the low number that go to trial because of reluctant prosecutors - deters reporting.

    That said, I get why prosecutors are reluctant. The real chilling effect is a not guilty verdict.

    He's gone through a couple of two or three day periods where he hasn't and it's always a sign of deep, deep trouble, like after Charlottesville.

    These tweets indicate someone has heard something about tomorrow, traditional Mueller indictment day.
