First, he said he didn’t know anything about the abuse. Now, it sounds like he was aware of it. Liar!
Trump, of course, believes Jordan and not the people who say Jordan knew what was going on.
We’re up to seven people who said Jordan knew:
Rep. Jim Jordan faces new accusation that he must have known about alleged sexual abuse at Ohio State https://t.co/4HMNBvERMR

It's clear @Jim_Jordan was aware of sexual abuse at OSU (5 former wrestlers have come forward), turned a blind eye to it/is now lying about it. He's trying to discredit the abuse victims, adding a level of wickedness to things. He needs to be held accountable, including by Rs.

Wow.
Jim Jordan changes his story, seems to acknowledge that he was aware that the team doctor was molesting wrestlers at Ohio State

Representative Jim Jordan remains defiant amid accusations from Ohio State University wrestlers who say he knew of a team doctor's sexual misconduct https://t.co/Cml0B1HGyD

Um, @jim_jordan has basically admitted that he knew, but the conversations didn't count because they happened in a locker room.
Keep up, @mattgaetz. https://t.co/t1SVdfJTwD

Makes you wonder what the fuck else is going on in the locker rooms Donald Trump & Jim Jordan frequent.
Maybe Trump’s one on one meeting w Putin will be in the sauna.

President Trump was quick to defend Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, rejecting accusations against him — and this isn't the first time he has jumped to the defense of his allies: @RandiKayeCNN reports https://t.co/2mCMrk3TAi pic.twitter.com/NiqrrE7Dvt

And the same exact folks who supported Hastert are now supporting Jim Jordan (including Fox News who, as a rule, seems to support all rapists and sexual assaulters who aren’t “Hollywood elites”). https://t.co/etL1r6hQzo

Here's the problem w/ slamming these two as not credible: We are now up to five who agree with them on record. And i hear there is a pretty sizable group of former wrestlers talking abt doing a big TV interview abt all of this, abt everything that happened at OSU. https://t.co/J8mA6M3fpv

Congressman Jordan, why didn’t you report the sexual assault of students when you were their coach? https://t.co/ZpN0r6ZXbe
