A federal judge Monday dismissed former President Trump’s claim that E. Jean Carroll defamed him in May after a jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing the writer.
The day after the verdict, Carroll appeared on CNN and indicated Trump had raped her. The jury had not found Trump liable for rape under New York’s definition, but instead found him liable for sexual abuse.
Trump then claimed Carroll’s insistence on CNN amounted to defamation, filing a counterclaim in Carroll’s other lawsuit that has not yet gone to trial.
U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan on Monday dismissed Trump’s argument, ruling Carroll’s statement on the cable network was substantially true and that “[t]here would have been no different effect on the mind of an average listener.”

You may not like the charges. You may not believe the charges. That’s fine. Because we don’t know all the underlying discovery and other information and there is much yet to be seen. But to say he’s not been treated with kid gloves in the process is simply ignorant. We’d all be sitting in a cell awaiting trial. Ask Stuart Rhodes or the Shaman.
I stand by what I said, especially the part about your intelligence level.
You’re arguing with a troll. It’s been spreading BS for years:

I have no love for the Clinton’s. However, they were never charged with any of the Arkansas issues you mentioned. I sort of think where there’s smoke there’s fire, especially with them. BUT, they were never charged. Including Whitewater.
I believe Trump’s Achilles’ Heal is money laundering. If Mueller or another prosecutor returns credible money laundering charges or accusations, whether he’s charged or not, would you stop support? In my mind, that is pretty darn close to some of the Arkansas stuff the Clinton’s may have had involvement.
They’ll eventually only have a jaywalking charge to pile on.
Kaplan has got to be another New York red diaper baby.
Yeah well my half a brain understands that his “sexual assault” is now a matter of public record and will haunt him going forward. It just cost him another defamation case and will appear in ads against him. Now it is not just hearsay, it is a settled case for which he chose not to offer a defense. Can your half a brain understand that ?
The only people that will believe it are morons like you. And those morons always vote for morons like biden or desanctomonios. So in the end it doesn’t matter.
Wow apparently you fail to understand that Trump just lost his counterclaim against Carroll for exactly the reasons I stated. Whose the moron ????
You must be a dsanctomonious supporter. You support outright corruption in the legal system because you think it will help dsanctomonios. That is a disgusting place to be. You and desanctomonious will never get that stink off. desanctomonious will never be POTUS. Hell, he wouldn’t even be governor if it wasn’t for Trump carrying him across the finish line.
I call it like I see it. I am not a mindless suckup to either candidate. Apparently you are.
