Lawyers for Donald Trump’s former faith advisor Robert Morris accused a 12-year-old girl of initiating “inappropriate” sexual conduct with the ex-Dallas megachurch  pastor, new documents have revealed.

Morris resigned in June after admitting to the incident. His accuser Cindy Clemishire previously claimed that the pastor had begun abusing her on Christmas Day in 1982.

Clemishire, now 52, said that Morris and his wife had been staying at her family home at the time when he asked her to come into his room, whereafter he told her to lay on his bed and then began touching her inappropriately.

She said the abuse had continued until 1987 when she told her parents.

However, 25 years after the incident, a lawyer for Morris – J Shelby Sharpe – claimed that it was the child who was actually to blame.

    You must be looking at the wrong 20yr olds, take a walk around a university campus and tell me they’re kids.

        I’m old enough to look at 22yr olds and see them as grown women. Pretty gross to see them as anything less honestly.

          You’re really protecting a lot onto the other guys comments, dude. I’m only 30 and 20yr Olds look like children, both men and women. It has literally nothing to do with disrespect and everything to do perception of others as you age.

          That’s why they kept asking you your age. You’re clearly also a child who doesn’t understand it yet.

          The original commenter said

          that is never going to work and I have to be the mature one to shut it down.

          They didn’t say anything about women being or looking like children.

          It’s not infantilizing to recognize that, for them, being at significantly different life stages would not be the kind of relationship they want.

          Anything less? Different isn’t less. I didn’t say less. Distraction.

          I hire and mentor women that age. I still think anyone that age, whether their gender, looks like a kid, when you’re older. And I don’t like fucking kids, or adults that look like kids. How gross of me.

          So how old are you? Old enough to second guess how you’re going to be received by responding directly?
