It just shows how like John F. Kennedy he is.

Trying to get my head around this Trump case.

1. This woman claimed that Trump essentially bumps into her in a department store, persuades her to come and look at some lingerie, cajoles her into a changing room, which she willingly does, and then rapes her.

No physical evidence, no CCTV, nothing. No reporting it to the police for decades, no medical evidence. Essentially her word against his.

The Jury disbelieves her rape claim but still finds Trump guilty of sexual assault anyway?

Trump says he has no idea who this woman even is and vehemently denies it.

This woman was either raped or she was not. That is it. If you don't believe her claims about being raped, how can you then believe her claims about being sexually assaulted? Was the penetrative sex consensual but everything else not?

None of this makes any sense whatsoever.

You forgot to mention here legal fees were funded by a prominent democrat and I am guessing she is to.

A valid point but the crux of it is the rape bit. She was either raped like she says she was or she was not. That is what I cannot get my head around. And if not it means that A: The Jury believe she consented or B. She is lying.

Her claim is founded on the rape allegation. If the Jury don't believe her on that, even in a civil court, then how can they go with the rest?

Agreed. I have been thinking about this since my last post.

I don't understand the Jury's verdict. Based solely on her statement the they decided that Trump assaulted her but did not rape her.

So what what their logic. They believed her about the assault but didn't believe her or didn't think there was enough evidence to convict on the rape count. But it was the same evidence that convinced them he had assaulted her.

I very odd decision.

Quite. Essentially it boils down to he said/she said. So if you believe her then you have to believe she was raped.

And if you don't, then she either consented or she lied. But either way, a lesser sexual crime falls away based on that.

^^^ this with bells on. Except what it clearly demonstrates is the undisputable link between the judiciary and the Government. The verdict was a shock, but also the (political)timing was immaculate.

I heard somewhere the investigation into Biden Inc in DC tomorrow so this is a distraction of interesting timing.

It's certainly a strange one, Trump denies he knows the woman, she said she wanted damages for Trump calling her a liar for the rape accusation, the jury didn't find she was raped but still awarded damages.

This verdict actually helps Trump. He has something very solid now to take to the voters he needs and say that his claims about a bias are actually spot on.

And a New York jury? LOL. Because of course, so many people in the US have a positive opinion, especially those who might lean Trump, of New York.

This tells me that the people who got so hysterical about Trump in 2016, and effectively handed him the White House, have not learnt anything since.

The answer lies in your own hands. Either start posting some common sense that I can agree with or stop posting critical comments about my own opinions. Continue as you are and so will I.

Good luck with that.

These people now operate in plain sight.

She is either lying or not. The jury obviously think she might be lying about being raped, so why would they believe any of it?
And then Trump gets hammered for saying she was lying.

This is such clear political manipulation involving the courts that it throws into question any verdict past and future involving Trump and all things related.

The corruption in the US has reached a new level

The media coverage has also been interesting, especially mute about the victim.

As I understand it 30 years ago this woman was in a department store bumped into Trump who she did not know. They got chatting and he invited her to go to the Lingerie department to look at the frillies (as one does with a strange man).

They then decide to go to a dressing room where he assaulted her.

Now imagine if instead of Trump it was Obama or Clinton who was accused. What do you think the media reaction to this woman's story would be?

I suspect a lot of columnists opining on her personal behaviour and poor judgement.
