For nearly a week, rumors of a major negative story against former President Donald Trump have been circulating online, fueled by anonymous sources at CNN and other mainstream media outlets claiming they were approached with the story.

Ultimately, however, the latest attempt to undermine Trump’s bid for a second term may have backfired after the alleged victim’s timeline was debunked.

Details of the story began to surface late Wednesday when Stacey Williams, a former fashion model, came forward with allegations that Trump groped her breast 31 years ago during a private party reportedly involving the notorious sexual offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The Guardian, which interviewed Williams, reported that the alleged encounter was part of a “twisted game” that Trump and Epstein were playing. Williams, 56, claimed that the late Epstein introduced her to Trump during a Christmas party in 1992.

“It became very clear then that he and Donald were really, really good friends and spent a lot of time together,” Williams claimed in her far-fetched story.

The alleged incident is said to have occurred several months later in Trump Tower after the late Epstein suggested she join him there for a visit. “Late winter/early spring of ’93, I was on a walk with Jeffrey from his brownstone on the Upper East Side down Fifth Avenue when Jeffrey looked at me and said: ‘You know, let’s go stop by and see Trump.’”

Williams stated a key quote that has raised significant questions about her timeline. She claimed that moments after arriving, Trump greeted her, then pulled her close and placed his hands “all over my breasts” and backside.

But again, the timelines don’t match up, and what’s more, a lot of corporate media outlets have already moved on from the allegations, likely because they cannot confirm them and don’t want to be held liable for reporting false claims.

Investigators on X compiled a timeline of Epstein’s residence in New York City, a timeframe that some argue does not match Williams’s account. Vanity Fair previously reported that Epstein did not move into the Upper East Side brownstone referenced by Williams until 1996, three years after the alleged incident took place in his presence. His name only appeared on the ownership paperwork in 2011, when the $77 million property was transferred to him for $0 by an associate, according to Business Insider.

In response, Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt vehemently denied the allegations.

“These accusations, made by a former activist for Barack Obama and announced on a Harris campaign call two weeks before the election, are unequivocally false. It’s obvious this fake story was contrived by the Harris campaign,” Leavitt told the Guardian.
