Newly released U.S. Justice Department documents related to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein include an allegation that a 13-year-old girl was forced to perform a sexual act on Donald Trump more than three decades ago.

Among more than three million pages of files made public on Friday, one document claims the girl was coerced into performing oral sex on Trump 35 years ago. The record alleges she bit him during the act and was later struck in the face for laughing about it. The allegation appears in FBI materials that include unverified tips.

This is only shocking if your head has been stuck in the sand for the last decade or so.

It's shocking in the meaning of the shocking nature of the act. It doesn't matter how expected this was, it doesn't make the act of pedophilia and rape any less shocking.
