The E. Jean Carroll versus Trump rape/defamation case — 24 Comments

  1. She published an account that defamed Trump, without evidence, and this suit is about his allegedly defaming her by denying it. It’s insane, but it’s New York.

  2. The case is very weak indeed, the judge would seem to be a partisan hack, and it is almost certain that the biased jury in NYC will be sympathetic to this delusional woman, clearly a fantasist. Next will come, in all likelihood, indictments in Georgia and then in the District of Corruption, the goal of this lawfare being that next year will have one Trumpian trial after another, trial-stacking to accompany charge-stacking. Our Anglo-American legal system, once the envy of the world, has been completely subverted, like our educational system and nearly everything else in our moribund republic.

  3. This case is a great illustration of why we have statutes of limitation in the first place. Caroll can’t remember the date when the purported assault occured, which deinies Trump the opportunity to present an alibi. Justice isn’t really served for either party. Caroll lacks the ability to produce evidence that could truly prove her case, because the only evidence left is from 30+ year old memories. Trump is denied a meaningful opportunity to defend himself at least because he has no opportunity to present an alibi and he has to try to rebut stale evidence.

    The NY law to waive the SOL stinks to high heaven.

    Also, how is Caroll going to claim defamation damages with a straight face? Does anyone believe that she interacts with anyone who would consider her reputation harmed because Trump called her a liar? I suspect the opposite is true.

  4. I call it the daily basilisk because there is no level they won’t stoop to, while obscuring real criminality like the scranton clan of grifters

    there apparently is a sympathetic juror, (well he listens to tim pool) but this is another perversion of the law,

  5. Doesn’t the principle of “ex post facto” apply to Hochul’s action in May, 2022? I thought the Constitution prohibited prosecution under a law that did not exist at the time of the alleged offense?

  6. The defamation that Carroll alleges was not beyond the limit to bring suit, was it? Regardless of whether the alleged rape itself would have been, the “defamation” was quite recent.

    As for the rape with no date or contemporaneous corroboration, it’s just the old Roy Moore playbook they also ran on Kavanaugh. You may also have read that Roy Moore was the dry run for alleging “Russian interference” where none existed.

    Note all the corporate and government actors. We’ve been in a banana republic for some time. The government itself is interfering in elections.

    An internal report on the Alabama effort, obtained by The New York Times, says explicitly that it “experimented with many of the tactics now understood to have influenced the 2016 elections.”

    The project’s operators created a Facebook page on which they posed as conservative Alabamians, using it to try to divide Republicans and even to endorse a write-in candidate to draw votes from Mr. Moore. It involved a scheme to link the Moore campaign to thousands of Russian accounts that suddenly began following the Republican candidate on Twitter, a development that drew national media attention.

    “We orchestrated an elaborate ‘false flag’ operation that planted the idea that the Moore campaign was amplified on social media by a Russian botnet,” the report says…

    The funding came from Reid Hoffman, the billionaire co-founder of LinkedIn, who has sought to help Democrats catch up with Republicans in their use of online technology.

    The money passed through American Engagement Technologies, run by Mikey Dickerson, the founding director of the United States Digital Service, which was created during the Obama administration to try to upgrade the federal government’s use of technology. Sara K. Hudson, a former Justice Department fellow now with Investing in Us, a tech finance company partly funded by Mr. Hoffman, worked on the project, along with Mr. Morgan.

  7. All Trump can really do is mock this trial, and the people conducting it. To roll over without complaint is unacceptable. I admire that he is willing to take this bullet of controversy.

  8. And those who think the GOP can avoid these sorts of problems by dumping Trump and nominating someone else in 2024 are delusional. If it ever appears that DeSantis is going to be the nominee, he will be indicted somewhere for something, or have women spring forth from the woodwork to accuse him of rape, too.

  9. Leftist Lawfare is the game, they keep throwing these cases at DJT and eventually one will stick having a jury that iare picked raving Marxists

  10. The approach of questioning Carroll to get it on the record that she cannot recall details of many interactions, actions, and communications is a good one. Suspect that the Trump hating NY jury and judge will ignore it and its significance to the complaint, but will be useful in the appeal.

  11. @yancey ward:women spring forth from the woodwork to accuse him of rape, too.

    Or men. The Good Fight already had an episode where a man accused DeSantis of raping him.

  12. of course they made the accuser a trump supporter,

    meanwhile hunter could probably kill one of the hookers on his video, and the press would cover it up, as with the rest of the vc andrews characters in the scranton clan,

  13. If it ever appears that DeSantis is going to be the nominee, he will be indicted somewhere for something, or have women spring forth from the woodwork to accuse him of rape, too.

  14. When you have to fight back against the media, the Congress, the Intel Agencies, and the left wing…what do you expect him to do?? Lie down and take it?? They have lied about this man for 0ver 7 years, and NOBODY is paying for their lies. This country is going down the toilet, yet everybody is so mad because Trump fights back.

    THIS^^^^

  16. It seems to me Trump could defend against this rape charge by saying he was out of the country on the date Carroll claimed it took place. And when the judge asks him to specify that date, Trump’s defense should just say “make her go first. When she tells us what date it took place, we’ll tell you when Trump was out of the country.”

    Alice in Wonderland stuff.

  17. well this is criminal malfeasance and any judge with any degree of integrity would have bounced this case,

  18. Also, Lisa Birnbach was apparently in on the “scheme.”

    “This has to stop,” Birnbach suggested in a Sept. 23, 2017 email about Trump. “As soon as we’re both well enough to scheme, we must do our patriotic duty again.”

    “TOTALLY!!! I have something special for you when we meet,” Carroll responded.

    If you had suspicions about The Preppy Handbook, you might have been right.

  19. “If it ever appears that DeSantis is going to be the nominee, he will be indicted somewhere for something, or have women spring forth from the woodwork to accuse him of rape, too.”

    This is one reason I think DeSantis should wait until 2028. Should the Democrats cheat massively again (and I am sure they will, and will likely win again), DeSantis will be a spent round anyway.

    Let Trump take this fight, if for no other reason than he generates more voter enthusiasm than DeSantis.
