E. Jean Carroll is suing Donald Trump for battery and defamation; her claims are based on her initial contention that Donald Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in Manhattan in 1996. In determining Trump’s guilt, however, the jury doesn’t have to decide whether or not the rape, which Trump denies, ever took place. U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan has instructed the jury that all they have to do is conclude that Trump gave Carroll an “unwanted peck on the cheek” in order to find him guilty. Yes, really.
Although this is not actually a rape trial, a guilty verdict will be for Leftists the next best thing to convicting Trump of rape, and will further their efforts to demonize and destroy him. They’ll be able to close off any possibility that he could be reelected in 2024 without actually having to go to the effort of defeating him at the ballot box. Yet the legal chicanery that has been required to get the trial even to this point is off the charts.
First, there was the manipulation of the statute of limitations. As Ben Bartee noted in late April, Carroll was only able to file her civil case at all because of “an exception carved out in the New York state legal code that many speculate was crafted especially to enable the prosecution of Trump. New York Magazine explained that Carroll was able to file her suit “because of the Adult Survivors Act, a new New York state law that went into effect that same month giving adult survivors of sexual misconduct a one-year window to file civil cases that would otherwise be outside the statute of limitations.”

Judge Kaplan....TYPICAL DEMOCRAT!
Depends on which cheek he pecked on doesn’t it?
So I guess Biden should get the death penalty for what he did to Tara Reade, and his own daughter
Clinton Judge.
BTTT
And he exposed himself to the female Secret Service agents. I would have thrown up..or laughed and made teeny-weeny gestures.
Oh come on now, ridiculousness has to stop. If a peck on the cheek is rape then every guy that gave me a peck is a criminal.
They are trying to destroy the male female relationship with this kind of garbage thinking.
Unwanted peck on the cheek. That’s gonna look good in the history books.
The only rape I see here is the one that judge is trying to do to Trump.
; )
What?!
U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan has instructed the jury that all they have to do is conclude that Trump gave Carroll an “unwanted peck on the cheek” in order to find him guilty. Yes, really.>>> Except in a jury decision his instructions mean nothing. Jury should know this.
There has to be accountability for bad judges. That is why is it so important for Conservatives to regain control of NY. Notice I didn’t say ‘Republicans. We need Conservative, God Fearing folks to run their courts.
According to Tara Reade, the current bumbler in chief did a helluva lot more to her than just a simple kiss on the cheek. But the communist press has no interest in looking into this.
Post 3 and Post 11 ....
both keepers. :)
LOL! Nice one.
If the judges’ words are taken literally, then it shows that Carroll lied about an actual rape in a dressing room with her tights pulled down. The judge wants a verdict against Trump even if it’s manufactured which is not how the law is supposed to be applied. Next the judge wills say that if Trump smiled at her, that he is guilty/liable. Sick. I hope he appeals and files in a saner jurisdiction.
well, I’m trusting the plan man. Trump has em by the short and curlies now
