    Well if people are gonna lie, they're gonna get called out on it

    Can we remember there was no evidence other than that of the "alleged victim" a real wackjob...many many years later and totally denied
    How that got up is beyond me but seeing where the civil suit was heard...I guess the perplexity disappears

    But as for the charge he raped the woman like the fools here keep asserting
    Heres Newsweek's fact check - hardly a right-wing rag
    Worth a read

    Fact Check: Was Donald Trump Found Guilty of Rape?

    Published May 12, 2023 at 10:13 AM EDTUpdated May 12, 2023 at 11:13 AM EDT

    False.

    Trump was found, by a jury, liable for battery, a civil tort, based on the preponderance of evidence provided by E. Jean Carroll that he sexually abused her but not that he raped her.

    He was not found "guilty" as the suit was a civil trial, which entails no criminal conviction.

    If the evidence provided by Carroll was given to a criminal jury, it might have come to other conclusions. That it was not found at a civil trial (based on the preponderance of evidence) that he raped Carroll does not mean that a criminal trial would make the same conclusion, although the evidential standards would be higher.
