In E. Jean Carroll’s “Heroic” Rape Trial Against Trump, His Team Calls No Witnesses
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 тра 2023
- Former President Donald Trump’s legal team rested its case Thursday in the rape, battery and defamation trial brought by writer E. Jean Carroll without calling a single witness. Carroll has accused Trump of raping her in a dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman in the 1990s. Carroll was able to file the case against Trump decades later because New York opened a one-year window on the statute of limitations for adult survivors of sexual assault. Trump says he may still ask to testify before jury deliberations are set to begin next week. The lawsuit against Trump is a major effort to counter the “long-standing tradition in our culture for protecting powerful men for sexual assault and sexual harassment,” says Deborah Tuerkheimer, law professor at Northwestern University and the author of Credible: Why We Doubt Accusers and Protect Abusers.

Its a defamation case.
For sure. These raped confessions that come out after decades, proves, there is more than meets the eye.
About a RAPE
I was r@ped in 2013 by a wealthy and prominent professor who is now a doctor of psychology. After 8 years, reporting it to 2 police districts, photographs of my injuries, text messages (which magically went missing between the police department and the DA), and finally bringing it up with the District Attorney of my state, i was told the state will not press charges.
Disgusting. I will never see justice and he will continue to be in power and work with patients.
As a woman , I am so sorry that you went through that disgusting crime 😢
I truly believe Trump is so guilty , most likely more than once .I pray he pays . If not here on Earth , when he and all others that do these sexual crimes to all human beings meet their maker .
O you poor poor thing. I really believe everything your saying…..N O T 😂 😂 Wow ppl like Ya won’t fail to stoop to the lowest of low just so they can claim they are some type of victim
You should have gone that very day you got raped, to the hospital and taken a test to prove it. When women wait for decades, something is wrong, somewhere.
These comments above are a perfect example what people have to face when they are assaulted. Please, I ask that you report these people for harassment and sexual content.
Jesus. So many of the above comments are disgusting. Why do so many people believe that rich, powerful, and/or high status people are incapable of sexual assault? The horrific irony of these comments existing in relation to this video...
Here in Omaha a few years ago we had a male masseuse get convicted of rape and sentenced to 24 years in prison. His alleged rapes occured in the course of his job. As far as I know he still claims to be innocent. I believe there were 3 women claiming rape. Buffington was his name. I think the most that will happen to Trump is a monetary judgement if he is found guilty. But it is not just these three women claiming he sexually assaulted them. There are literally dozens. I don't think there is any question Trump is a serial rapist who belongs in prison. The only real question is why he has so much political support.
His cult refuse to believe anything bad about him. Fake news, they scream.
...all those accusations and yet no one has proof...wow...so interesting...why would they wait until it impossible for him to defend himself to bring these allegations....ummmm. scratching my head!!!

The word incest came about in the 13th centuary CE, rape in the 14th centuary CE and pedophile in 1951.
Only recently the United States government has made spousal rape a crime.

Just like child abuse, we need to abolish the statute of limitations on rape.
Uh... nope. There should be statue of limitations on EVERYTHING... even murder. Our courts are already so backed up and so dysfunctional that we can't keep up with the crimes being committed TODAY... let alone 20, 30, 40 years ago... At some point you gotta just move on.
I would love to agree with you but all the faults accusations would flood the courts. Sad mess really. Don't wait stand up for your rights find help. I know easier said than done. My prayers go out to all the victims.
No.
Absolutely not. If you were an adult when you were a victim you need to report that ASAP. You don't have any right to decide you feel like a victim decades later when you KNEW damn well what happened at the time it happened. By not reporting it, you're choosing to allow the person to continue to commit these crimes to other people, which really makes you partly responsible for not preventing it when you could have.
@Michael Hunt Great deflection there Mike. You Trumpers will do anything but look at the issue at hand. Trump has over 34 accusers, many before he ran as well a woman who in 1994 accused Trump of gangraping her with Jeff Epstein when she was 13! Sources: Los Angeles Times 2015, 16, Vox Magazine, Rolling Stone. Matt Gaetz accused of sex trafficking, Jim "Gym" Jordan, Lauren Boebert's husband who went to jail for exposing himself to minors. I could go on for days Mike. P.s. In her divorce papers, Ivana accused Trump of raping her! And it is filed and lodged with the court as a legal document!
What is a “type” to rape? Rape is an act of defilement, rage, violence and control , not sexuality. E Jean’s bravery is phenomenal. I stand with her 100%.

So many women experience this. So many of us put it behind us because we don't want to be abused again. Still true to this day.
That doesn’t mean he did it.
@@jdubs604 i'D BET MY CONDO HE DID.
@@jdubs604 No, not that alone. But weighing all the evidence and the credibility of E. Jean Carroll versus the lack of credibility of Trump due to his history of pathological lying and misogyny makes it a strong probability that Trump is a rapist.
That doesn’t make sense, women hide it because they don’t want to be abused again 🤔. Ummm actually if you speak up it wouldn’t happened Again
@@TheHoodVoice2024 Ohhh Lay, what MZ is talking about is the abuse women receive when they tell their stories. For instance, when E Jean Carroll told her story, her rapist called her a liar, a disgrace and implied she was not attractive. That is the kind of abuse MZ is talking about. Even in these comments you see the abuse E Jean Carroll is getting. Lies about her; people blaming her for being a victim of rape. That is what MZ is referring to when she says women do not want to be abused again, so they often keep quiet. Then people like you do not understand. It is so sad.
😂😂😂 he won't testify !!!! Love that the judge gave him the weekend. He can't say he wasn't giving a chance to testify !!!!
He doesn't care about what some stinkin' judge or court says about him. He is "above the law" and no judge or court or jury is going to tell him what to do...
turmp is so un predicable ,
I love how gullible you guys are. You fall for the “we got him this time” every time they feed it to you
They don't listen to men anyway. The holy woman is protected empowered and a victim all at the same time. Believe all women means disbelieve all men. Amber Heard had to be proven 100 percent guilty and women will not say she's guilty.
@@pursueyourdreams3694 Yes. Creating chaos is a way to control people.
NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW ...
And no one is below it either.
If Trump were to be re-elected as President in 2020 will China’s ambitions be derailed; on the other hand, if any of the democrat candidates for president were to win, then China would not pay a price but would instead achieve even more power and dominance as a pliable and compromised democrat party would be in power.
The American people failed to understand that the Chinese Communist Party and the democrat party had formed an unspoken de facto alliance to defeat Trump in 2020. The unrelenting drumbeat for unprecedented lockdowns to ostensibly achieve net-zero Covid-19 infections and the gross exaggeration of fatalities were among the primary weapons.
For the first time in American history, a major political party was essentially in league with a hostile foreign power to defeat an incumbent president that posed a threat to their respective interests. Trump was well aware of this poisonous alliance and had often railed against the Communist Chinese. However, instead of relying on his nearly always infallible gut instincts that had propelled him to the presidency as well as worldwide fame and fortune, Trump, perhaps because it was an election year, foolishly acquiesced to this cabal’s Chinese Wuhan virus tactics. Further, and for the same reason, he hesitated to fire those around him who were not only incompetent but in league with the democrat/CCP axis, thereby setting up the election loss.
Dr. Li-Meng Yan, a virologist who fled from China and worked in the field of coronavirus research, claimed in the summer of 2020 that the Chinese Wuhan virus not only originated at the Wuhan Institute of Virology but it was deliberately released by the Communist Chinese. There is now wide consensus that the virus escaped from the Institute, and that it was perhaps deliberately released.
The virus was circulating among humans in China and Europe as early as October/November of 2019. Yet it took nearly three months until January 2020 for China to announce to the world that a new virus had ostensibly originated in a wet market in Wuhan and was rapidly spreading throughout the region. As a follow-up, the Chinese leadership initiated choreographed lockdowns of major cities and provinces for the world to obsess over as a means of exponentially increasing fear of the virus in the West.
However, their official fatality numbers were absurdly low and remained so for over two years as China has reported a miniscule total death toll of just 4,638 or .0003% of their population (1.5 Billion) during this period. This appears to have been yet another ploy that enabled them to falsely tout to the world, and in particular the United States, how successful their near total lockdowns were in controlling covid.
Duplicitously the CCP also closed down all domestic travel, but pushed to keep open foreign travel until the first of April 2020 (six months after first detecting the virus) thus creating the conduit to spread the Chinese Wuhan virus around the globe.
Falling prey to China’s deceptions, Trump was initially deferential to China and praised their actions to supposedly contain the virus. By late spring of 2020, however, he was the lone world leader criticizing and condemning the Communist Chinese. However, by that time Trump’s mistaken acquiescence to lockdowns and social distancing in the United States had placed him in an untenable and unwinnable situation.
Shutting down a nation to combat a pandemic had never been done at any time in human history. However, the politically compromised and dishonest medical advisors to Trump (Fauci and Birx) strongly urged Trump to agree to a lockdown and social distancing by pointing to the supposed success of China’s lockdown policies.
Additionally, the political opposition and legacy media also promoted lockdowns and social distancing as they realized that they could serve as a vehicle to initiate and legalize mass mail-in voting and ballot harvesting throughout all the so-called battleground states.
The folly began on March 16, 2020 when Trump announced an effective national shutdown of “15 days to slow the spread”. Within a matter of a week, he knew he had made a mistake as he watched the economy begin to implode. Nonetheless, he did not reverse course but continued to accede to a national policy of “temporary lockdowns”.
His concession to a 15-day lockdown would inevitably lead to massive economic dislocations, long-term lockdowns and school closures and, more importantly, it allowed the various states to initiate their own lockdown regimens pointing to Trump’s decision as the basis.
Inevitably, the 15 days soon became 45. Thereafter, it became impossible to reverse course as Trump was mercilessly mocked whenever he talked about ending lockdowns as the media and the democrats were incessantly fearmongering and the federal medical bureaucracy was deliberately inflating the infection and fatality numbers. Further, Trump was confronted with the reality that a president has no legal basis to intervene in the shutdown policies of the states.
He unsuccessfully attempted to alter course and eventually did shuffle Fauci and Birx to the sidelines. But it was too late as the damage had been done and it was a near impossibility to stop the Democrat war machine from changing elections laws in many states before November 3, 2020.
Donald Trump deserves to be recognized as an indispensable man who was the right president at the right time. However, when confronted from all sides by his adversaries and their manipulation of the Coronavirus Pandemic, Trump’s acquiescence and decision-making process were out of character as he was far too fixated on the upcoming election.
If he is the republican nominee in 2024, and with a vast number of voters are viscerally opposed to him because of his personality traits, Trump needs to swallow his pride and openly and honestly address his failures during that fateful period or he will not again occupy the White House and China’s uncontested dominance of the globe will be inevitable. Steve McCann!

Protecting the rapist while taking away the right for a woman to manage a potential pregnancy. This is not America
So many sexually objectifying images of women and constant shows about women being tortured, raped, murdered, and dismembered has to stop. Am I my brother's keeper, I am whether I want to be or not because what happens to my brother could happen to me as well.
That’s just such an uneducated statement
Very stupid. I was accused. The female claimed to be pregnant and that I took advantage of her. Actually only wanted $500 for an abortion. She got naked after I fell asleep and woke me. She was surprised I didn't respond kindly. Her boyfriend was the caller. I called the prosecutors office. Not only no sex, but I had a vasectomy years before, cut, tied, and burned. Two lab letters affirming 0 sperm count. NO, "SHE SAID", THEN IT MUST HAVE HAPPENED (woman lie too).
All I can say about this case, Ms Carroll is batshit crazy. Who can say what's real in that head full of squirrels.
@@candicewitzkoske3155 Probably a liberal
I wish more people knew about and would watch the video of Anderson Cooper interviewing her a few years ago. He literally got uncomfortable and ended up cutting the interview with her when she said (quote) "I think most people think of r@pe as being se×y." What a sick thing of her to assume and say. Politics aside, this is nothing less than a defamation case towards Trump based on how she speaks about it. Something doesn't add up on her end. The way she enthusiastically told her story with such enthusiastic detail leading up to her accusation does not line up. She downplays it as no big deal and says that she feels bad admitting it since it happens to less fortunate people. Seriously?! What an insult to those who have been through this. Look it up. It's right here on UA-cam. Instant results when you search for the interview. She tells it with such enthusiasm but stumbles on specific questions trying to brush them off and continues digging rabbit holes trying to distract from the main point of the interview. Things don't add up based on her demeanor, body language. She doesn't realize that playing this kind of crime she accused him of, down as fun and no big deal since it was her, is very bothersome. That's all I have to say. If people were able to look at things from a dual perspective and stop looking at this in a political way, it would benefit everyone these days. Regardless, to each their own.
You're right, I totally agree. She obviously didn't plan this story out very good, because she's claiming that he pulled down her tights and penetrated her standing up. I once tried to have sex with an ex girlfriend standing up while she pulled her tights down, and it forced the legs together where I couldn't get it in. She had to remove one of the legs of the tights. Carroll also claims to have the clothing from that day and never washed it, but won't turn it over for dna testing, which Trump has requested. The judge also refuses to force her to turn over the clothing that could prove Trump's innocence. Do you know if Trump is going to testify?
She's a writer and writers read a lot! 40 years ago, Harlequin Romances were basically rape novels. Innocent girl compromised by experienced older man and portrayed as "Romance". Then, it got dubbed as "soft porn".
Other books similar to those writings drew comments from some stupid morons that they wished it happened to them.
So, for a long time, rape was considered sex by idiots and that's the point she was trying to make.
Must the decision be unanimous? And what would be a reasonable settlement amount? Does the jury decide that? What is the asking price?
I believe her.
@babskaz74 I do too.
I believe all men. All men not guilty. If you don't follow evidence, why should I? Women can consent and then change their minds 20 years later. He didn't chose them, so they are abused. Or they want money to survive, after they hit the wall.
I believe Sara Reade
Anyone is nuts to believe the E J Carroll nutcase.
Of course you do.
Trumps defense, “She’s not my type”, 🤢
...also that he never met her...she has no proof at all...although she could have...if true...she could have reported it immediately and gotten security footage from the store...there would have been witnesses, there would be physical evidence and yet we have none of that...this accuser says she does NOT even remember the year...she also told Anderson cooper that most people think rape is sexy. Smh
then confuses her with his second wife marla maples.

It's a civil lawsuit, not a criminal trial unfortunately. Not that he shouldn't be jailed. Just won't be this case.

@@officegirl5735 Wrong. There is a difference between rape and assault. Not every assault victim has been assaulted, but every rape victim has been assaulted. Not every one of Clinton's affairs were even alleged to be nonconsensual and the Paula Jones' case, he was not found guilty. And Monica was in her 20s and it was consensual despite the fact that she now regrets it. JFK had affairs; they were not rape victims. As a survivor myself, get your cmfacts straight and go to Rape and Incest Network and learn the difference. You are conflating..whether you are doing so for political reasons or just out of ignorance.

@@susanhewitt6359 Yes. See above.
@@IMeMineWho There will come a day that Maxwell spills everything. But the Donald is going to be a very busy man who will be juggling subpoenas for the foreseeable future and will have to squeeze all that Epstein business in between all his other court dates!
They also never mentioned all the other people who have nothing to do with the story. So you believe rape is wrong when you accuse Democrats of doing it? What if someone rapes a woman and he's a Democrat, but then he changes his registration to Republican? Is she a liar and he's innocent then, or is he guilty but she's still a liar? Epstein was friends with Trump and is photographed with him, and they were both implicated in the rape and murder of a thirteen-year-old runaway. Is Epstein still bad because Bill Clinton flew on a private jet Epstein made available to powerful people for free, and Clinton has been accused of knowing him and visiting his island but there is no proof at all that they ever met. It must be confusing when you politicize everything and you're also a liar who never acts in good faith. I'm glad I've never met a Trump supporter that I know of.
It is really not hard to know why sometimes we do not
Believe accusers .
It is because the concept of ' not bearing false witness ' escapes so many people . The mere
Title of the book automatically infers that because there is an accuser the accused is the abuser .
Maybe if there were much harsher penalties for
People who lie , like the same penalty that the accused would face , we might have a more balanced approach .
It's interesting that you accuse women of coming forward with a false accusation and you can't even suggest why someone would do that and you require no evidence at all to declare that she's a liar, while no evidence is ever sufficient when someone you like or you've been informed by the right wing sh*thead movement that you like is accused of something. Even if there is film of them committing the crime they are innocent. It's almost as if you don't care at all about right and wrong or the law and you cheer for whoever is on your "team" unquestioningly and jeer and hurl abuse at anyone identified as your opposition regardless of how serious the situation. You are so ignorant you don't know what the word "hypocrisy" means and you have zero self-awareness as well. It reminds me of the birthers, who were just being reasonable and wanted to see the president's birth certificate so they were sure he was qualified to be president. When he foolishly published his birth certificate, a grand total of zero birthers put the issue to rest and said that now they know. It's because it was a bad faith smear against a president they hated for being black, and it allowed them to jeer about his illegitimacy while claiming that it had nothing to do with race. It's the same thing here. You hate the accuser because the accused is from your side, just like you would be proclaiming guilt without any evidence if the accused was Joe Biden. Stop trying to pass yourself off as a normal or decent human being. Nobody from the right wing cess pool will ever be that.
There are consequences for making up allegations. A mom "influencer" was just convicted of falsely accusing a couple of trying to kidnap her children in a Michael's store.
@@dawnsmith9596 so will she get the same penalty as the accused....and by the way , it is the Prosecuter
That decides whether charges are laid ...it is their responsability to ascertain
Veracity of allegations .
Perjury is the issue . That is different from fucking around. No less important though.
@@chrisbronson5341 Defamation is not a criminal charge. A prosecutor is not involved. Amber Heard was found guilty of defamation by a jury. If Trump was innoocent HE would have brought the defamation case. The accused is only guilty if found guilty by a jury. Ricky Martin was accused of sexual assault by his nephew. I do not believe the nephew and no charges have been brought. So the accused is not guilty in that case. I do not get why you act as if someone who is accused is automatically guilty? Men assault women and make up lies that they didn't and that the woman is crazy. Women make up lies that a man sexually assaulted her who didn't. It is messed up. All a jury can do is weigh the credibility of each party and how the evidence does or does not make sense. Trump is a pathological liar, so he has zero credibility.
Rape is THE least reported and prosecuted crime of all. As a survivor myself who despite the fact that I was and am a teetotaller, am and was monogamous, it was in broad day and there was a witness (I was kidnapped and taken somewhere against my will,) there was a knife and I filled out a report, the police at the time took the liberty of not merely writing what I told them but embellishing the report on what their gross minds thought was in my mind! The case never went to court. Very few women lie about being raped as there is still so much stigma attached to it. The people who think that are greatly misinformed.
A woman will internalize the shame, and just keep going... They'll always be affected. But they won't ever share that personal damage unless they feel they need to shed light, protect others, or they are finally sick of a person gaining from their evil.
Women, or any victims, need to start calling their perpetrators out. It's sickening how so commonly victims really are blamed. But the only solution I can think of, is to speak truth loudly and openly.
@@cev12 Why? Have you been raped? No by your ignorant answer. I did report and was not taken seriously back then although it was by knifepoint, I was not drinking and still the police decided to embellish my police report with their disgusting version of what they thought I was thinking! Even sharing my story in comments, Trump trolls have accused me of horrific things. Would I file a report again? Now maybe. But not necessarily everyone has the level of anger at no one being there for me. Not the police. Not the witness I tried to help me after. Yes, it was in daylight. If a woman needs to keep it a secret, that is her perogative. If she speaks out immediately same. If it takes her 3p years, it is still her perogative.
Don't speak for most women..speak for yourself..e gene.carroll...is nothing but an opportunist and the even my liberal mother is disgusted
A lot of women in the projects always accuse men where i live just to get arrested when you don't do what they say they can be evil.

Why is Carroll refusing to turn over the unwashed clothing she wore that day for dna testing? She says she has the clothing and Trump and his lawyer requested the judge order her to turn it over for dna testing, but the judge is siding with her.
@@captainamerica9028 WTH are you talking about? There is no reason to turn over the dress because Trump refused to give a DNA sample, dingleberry. What good is testing the dress without the rapist's DNA? If Trump was innocent he would have given his DNA without being asked.
They should not reopening the case if he decides to show up now. He knew when the trial was and decided to play golf. Choices and consequences. He chose not to show up.
I was a victim of sexual assault in New York City at about the same time, in the mid-nineties. I went straight to the police to report it. Linda Fairstein handled the case, and it went as far as the grand jury. Unfortunately, since there was no physical evidence, it went no further than that. However, the sleazebag perpetrator, who was a lawyer, ended up getting himself disbarred because of professional misconduct. I am glad that E. Jean Carroll is getting a fair shot at justice here.
Glad your attacker was disbarred...wish he had been jailed!
I just learned about this case today although I knew Carroll had accused Trump and written about it.
My take away from Carroll's experience is when you are the only woman in the room
with one man or more, and the "banter" starts?
The curtains have suddenly caught on fire and it's time to get some air.
Too many times in my life I attempted to engage in "banter" with the wrong person or persons.
And that my "banter" has been mistaken for my willingness to engage in sex or the word "Yes".
I can only assume that the man or men in the room were thinking:
"if she engages in locker room type "banter",
that means she wants the "banter" to get physical"
Like: "you want to talk like a man? Then you will act like a man and want sex?"
Not the case.
I think that's an archaic assumption or a cultural assumption on many men's part even now.
If I say one dirty word...then all bets are off and I couldn't possibly prove my case if I said a bad word when engaged in "banter".
Linda Fairstein also mishandled Central Park Jogger case or the Oliver Jovanovic case, where the victims own grandmother told Ms. Fairstein that her granddaughter is liar and that the alleged rapist is innocent.
@@dawnsmith9596 After he was let off the hook, he kept calling me to taunt me about it. But an attorney friend of mine kept an eye on him and let me know that he had had other accusers, as well--so it wasn't just me. At any rate, he's dead now, I believe.
@@knavishlassie I hope Hell is real!
Our society should NOT support this kind of character assassination. This is lawless. If there is a charge of rape from an adult woman...there should be a time limit of no more than 6 months...because physical and biological evidence is crucial...witnesses and timelines are crucial. People luves are at stake when accused. And the accused should at least have a CHANCE of being able to defend themselves.
I bet you might feel different if it was your daughter or wife that this happened to.
@@bpalpha I am a woman and I have Sons and Daughters...I know how I feel about this issue. Justice needs to be fair.
So people who suffer sexual abuse as children and were too scared and ashamed to report it at the time are just out of luck and abusers are free to continue this behavior because the eight-year-old victims didn't save any DNA and didn't report it to police right away? I think it's interesting that you are so interested in "fairness" when Trump is accused. I wonder how rigorous your standards are when teachers are accused of "grooming" children in schools.
@@generationofswine-ge5rw No, people who were abused as children SHOULD definitely have the right to sue up to a certain point. My comment was regarding adult women with perfectly functioning brains!
You are ignorant of the entire subject.
BWAHAHA 😂 the judge cut him off at the knees before he could whine!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
As Stalins Chief of Secret Police said…”show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime”.
They keep trying. Meanwhile we have an actual crook in the White House who is owned by China, Russia, the Ukraine, etc. etc…
The comment isn't visible.
People don't seem to understand that.
Trump has been a career criminal his whole adult life.
Show me Trump and I will show you at least 40 crimes.
How can he have witnesses called if the judge had alresdy disallowed ANY of his witnesses to be heard???
Trump won't testify
The Savage succubus are at it!!!
Why is rape a civil matter
rather than criminal ?
So, if you accept Trumps excuse, if he HAD found Ms. Carroll attractive, he would have attacked her?.
Horrifying.
Hope she's responsible for all his attorney fees after losing.
Hope you get a brain..and a heart.
He's too nice to do that but it's a good thought.
@@ut000bs Riiight. The guy who has associations to both the Russian mob and the Gambino family is too nice.😆
Let’s bring on the Criminal charges. Forced rape is still a crime. Thumbs/ Up to EJean Carroll
So what he implies is that he is capable of rape if she were his type. And we know E.Jean Carroll was his type because when shown a photograph, he thought she was M. Maples his second wife. His type was his first wife, Ivana, and she stated in her divorce that he raped her. Love and Light to all the victims of rape. May justice be done. 🩷
All his chickens are coming home to roost at once! It's about time.
I went through this and the man that did this was connected in my small community and I was ran out of my home of 16 years and now have been stalked and harassed by a hired private security companies for years!😢😮😢
Nothing but a creep. How anyone could ever have entered a vote for him at anytime will forever remain a mystery to me

@liz gillies yes way worse, dt’s administration was the 1st administration in history to be found guilty of a crime. It illegally sold oil leases in the Gulf of Mexico without impact reviews and is on record as having broken the law over it. He was so intent on making sure the oil industry got paid through leasing in the Gulf all while the Taylor leak of 2004 that is still leaking to this day was never capped. Yes, that makes him way worse.
@liz gillies get rucking real. Trump has been accused of rape/sexual assault by 24 women. One of of whose was his own wife. Trump was the one hanging out with Jeff Epstein since the early 80’s. Trump is the one whose been hanging out with Matt Gaetz. There has never been an accusation like this against President Biden. So fuck right off with that bullshit.
As Einstein stated : Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity,
and I’m not sure about the universe
@liz gilliesLooking at Donald Trump and Joseph Stalin, who is creepier? It's too close to call.
thank you
The GOP is not concerned this is the issue here
Thank you E.Jean and all the witnesses for their strength. He’s so gross 🤮 and needs to be held accountable. He’s a fool. I believe her and this was his pattern long before he was president.
All the witnesses? 😆 😂 😆
Yea he's so gross give me a break. I remember when Oprah had Trump on her show 30 years ago Oprah was in awe and the women in the audience were going gaga. Oprah asked the women how would you like to bring Trump home they went nuts. Trump was good looking inhis 30's and a billionaire he didn't have to rape anyone. This is politically driven and the timing is perfect.
YEAH! WE GOT HIM THIS TIME, JEAN! JUST WAIT!
This is the 50th time I've said that but never mind. We have faith!
Brainwashed Libs on this site!
YES 👍🏻nailed it jean !
Give him the Bill Cosby treatment
Bill Cosby was not guilty either....
@@BettyMullins actually he was found guilty in the case brought against him in Caifornia.
@@louisefleming3117 in my opinion he should not have been convicted
@@BettyMullins Dream on Betty. You know because you were there? Gtfoh troll.
@@BettyMullinswow, i hope you are not a mother, raising girls and boys to think these things are ok. You can't deny that arrogant men have greatly abused their positions of power to forcefully get some. There is nothing consensual about DT
About time the ridiculous American (and Canadian) legal systems statute of limitations on rape (it should be the same as murder - no statute of limitations) is at least begun to be questioned; not because of the grand Trumpeter but for victims rights. Take it to criminal justice system as well
REPUBLIC NOW !
WE HAVE ALL LOVED TO BELIEVE THAT THE DECENT BEHAVIOR OF POWERFUL PEOPLE IN THE PUBLIC'S EYE WOULD BE THE STANDARD. SADLY WITH THIS ONE MAN'S DESPICABLE WAY TOWARD ALL WOMEN AND BEING A PAST PRESIDENT, THIS SICK WAY OF TREATMENT HAS NOT CHANGED!!!
You forgot Clinton and Joe Biden with Tara Reed
Yeeeaahh I don't believe it.. she full of sh**
I hope she prevails.
Why? He obviously didn't do it.
You hope she was raped? Man I hope this is a big misunderstanding and nobody was ever hurt.
@@pokerace420 A misunderstanding? Did his penis accidentally fall into her vagina? No. She was RAPED by DONALD J. TRUMP, and she proved her case in court.
Yea we need more liars being exalted by progressives. There simply aren’t enough of them.
Betcha said the same about Tara Reade and Juanita Brodderick
I rather sleep with a snake than sleep on a beach. Sleeping on a beach is more dangerous than a snake.
That you are giving credence to this case despite no evidence and not even remembering the date of this rape, is disgusting . You should be ashamed.
Being raped is a horrendous experience, and for Ms Caroll not to report it to the department store where it happened for one thing and to the police seems unbelieveable.
It's disgusting how you pretend to oppose rape as a way to cast doubt on a rape victim and call her a liar. You couldn't handle one one-thousandth of the deluge of abuse she has been subjected to since making her accusation and you are saying that someone would subject themselves to that just to falsely accuse someone? So she is lying about an assault by Trump, are the other thirty women who have accused him of nearly identical assaults all liars too? Do you know which ones reported the assault immediately and which ones didn't report it at all or waited a long time? Did you accuse the woman who claimed sexual impropriety by Biden of being a liar immediately also, or did you proclaim his guilt immediately?
@@generationofswine-ge5rw In 2016 CNN was offering fifty thousand dollars and a book deal to any woman who accused Trump of sexual assault. This is why these fraudster women came forward. All EJean has to do to settle this matter once and for all is to turn over the clothing for dna testing which she refuses to do. She says she still has the unwashed clothing and the judge won't force her to submit the clothing for testing. They're with holding evidence that will prove Trump's innocence.
They called no witnesses because Trump has no case. Hopefully the jury acts fairly and impartially and renders Justice.
The Judge is as wicked as can be. He doesn't try to hide it even from the jury.
How can you defend an accusation when there are only 2 people? It;s his word against hers we saw that with Kavanaugh.
@@denniscerasoli6209 And cavanah was as guilty as trump is only trump raped women all the time it was known for years most of the time they were paid off by. His fixer I bet you wish you could have done that support the abuser a******
Well, she has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt…
Maybe next time. I'm sure there will be a next since this is already like number 50.
They called a witness. Trump is the one who did not provide witnesses.
Have you seen the sexual assaults on the subway?Not much press or books on those...
We all know his mindset against women
It's as if he was raised by animals.
They should take a poll on Women who have had an incident where a man behaved Inappropriately!
That would be every single woman in the country.
Yea no shit especially 30 years ago
Donald Trump is a coward
He certainly won't testify
Not only one incident but many.
Heroic!!! It’s a sin to bear false witness. Who would believe that a man who has bunches of money would “rape “ some salesperson. Did he do things that I’m sure he is no longer proud of? Probably. But “rape”? You know how stupidity some people act around rich people.
Why did she wait so long to sue? We have statutes of limitation for a reason. Shall we widen other statutes of limitation to "get" other politicians we don't like? Not a good look for the law.
In Canada all juries are anonymous.
I've always wondered if Amy Goodman is in any way related to Mark Goodman --- one of the original VJs from old school MTV? I think I should just Google it now.
"his team doesnt call any witnesses"
What for? Does anyone actually remember what they did 30 years ago? Even if someone was able to give an alibi for a certain time period its not like any of these women are given even remotely accurate dates/times for these horrible events.
It's sad you can just make up stories and lies about someone just for a pay day.
It’s amazing that theses creatures come out of the wood work every time he is ahead in poles .
It's all a ploy to keep him from being President. It's so transparent.
No doubt. It almost as if these “victims” are on someone’s payroll.
Shame on you!!!Apparently, you've never been sexually assaulted, So you climb on the denial wagon & give support a rich privileged man who has always assaulted women. These were just a few of many over decades, even some juveniles. And that's okay with you? You're horrible@
@464batman Keep your man opinion to yourself. More like you crawled out of the woodwork. He's guilty, guaranteed! He's raped many women, even an ex wife, as well as underage females.
"poles"....tfg loves the uneducated.

Is he gonna show up? How much money is e..jean seeking??
Civil case you can draw adverse inference and I hope the empty chair helps jurors draw that inference.
TDS.
Epstein Island?
😂😂😂😂😂BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO DEFENSE!!😂😂😂
Burden of proof is on the prosecution. And so far her case is "because I said so" so don't get your hopes up lol
There is nothing to bother defending. She has no proof. With no proof she has no case. Trump won before the suit was even filed. 🤦♀️
If saying someone raped you was all it took to win, I'd put my ex-stepmom away for years.
"When he kept putting his hand on my skirt that was it! That was it" - then waited until assaulter was campeigning to report it.

He went to Ireland specifically so that he could trash talk stuff he would be held in contempt for if he said it in the US. In Scotland - well, maybe someone explained he’d get in trouble with its laws.
The clear explanation I’ve been waiting to hear - thank you.
E Jean Carroll is the most brave human being to demand Justice from this human excrement.

How is somebody raped in a dress room for 3 min get all that done people still asking no one seen our heard nothing is insane
And E J would define the R-word experience as fun and exciting. Her interview with Anderson Cooper reveals how kooky she is.
I just know that if a famous billionaire ripped all your clothes off in a changing room, you’d run out naked into the store and scream for random strangers to help you.p, wouldn’t you? Of course you would. You wouldn’t worry at all about humiliation or not being believed by said strangers when the billionaire stands there going, “This is so not true, I’m gonna sue nudie woman for twenty million bucks!”
She said it was strange there was no one around, maybe he set it up just like the woman on the plane said she was bumped to first class (and somehow wound up in the empty seat next to him). He described what they said he does to women on the tape, why can't you believe this man is who he shows you he is over and over? Why are so many women accusing him of rape, including one of Jeffrey Epstein's victims when she was 13 and a virgin?
Exactly ‼️
Liars are your heroes now
How sad is that.
What proof does she have exactly ?!
