The **** are Trumps team having an 80 year old giving evidence in a civil trial in front of national media that regardless of outcome will only make him look bad.
They should have settled long before this reached court or is Trump totally broke?
Describing what a woman looks like in the context of a rape charge is mild?
Are you serious??
He mistook E Jean Carroll, for his wife, that's really really bad
He really dug his own grave their with that testimony
I didnt say that, I was being polite, have you seen the woman in question, she is quite mannish looking.
She isnt Donalds type.
What, according to you, is Trumps type?
Just have to ask, do you think rape is a physical manifestation of attraction or a physical manifestation of power?
Once again, imagine the outrage among Republicans if a former Democrat President used those words. He is a disgraceful piece of work.
His face looks ridiculous in that video 😂
Trump will probably appeal if convicted. Especially with the stigma associated with a rape linked to a defamation trial potential adjudication going into the 2024 presidential elections.
The Republican voters may not care, but the largest segment of voters in USA, who are independents, may be affected, as well as those who had identified with the Me-too movement during recent past general elections.
Trump claims that he was leaving his golf course and hotel in Ireland early to attend and confront his accusers in the (alleged) rape and defamation trial in NYC. Although both the plaintiff’s and the defendant’s legal teams have rested, with final arguments scheduled for Monday.
The presiding judge did allow Trump until Sunday to request an opportunity to testify under oath, but it was uncertain if Trump was serious, or attempting yet another trial delay tactic, or just making a press statement for political spin in Ireland. We should know by Sunday close.
More good news for rapey orange face

Hang on.
I think we are all missing the bigger picture here.
His defence at the time was that grabbing women by the pussy was okay because when your famous, they let you do it was "locker room talk".
Turns out, it isn't.
He absolutely believes what he said.
It's always like this.
It goes...
Lesbian means she isn't attracted to him. Not the other way around.
According to his deposition, Carrol is his type.
’would your 2 ex wives be ‘your type?’
‘Yes’
’who is in this photo?’
’Thats my ex wife Marla!’
’No, that was E Jean Carrol’
”oh”
Yet he thought she was his wife…
Also rape is often about having power over someone rather than sexual attraction but even in your train of thought he thought she was his wife, I doubt he married his second wife for her personality..
You know, that kind of response really helps me understand how you can defend someone like Trump.
He sees women as objects to be used as he sees fit and their value in his world is based entirely on whether or not he'd like to have sex with them. That makes him a mysoginist pig, simple as that
That you think that what he said wasn't awful and utterly unacceptable is very illuminating indeed.
I believe she will be awarded much more than that.
There was a witness who claimed that to undo the reputational damage that trumps statements against her would cost between 300k and 2.5m ( approx).
I think what will be awarded will be much higher (but what do I know) the fact that he tried so many ways to weasel out of this case e.g. trying to say as he was president at the time he was an officer of the government and carrying out official government duties and that the Government cannot be sued for defamation.
Ahh yes the Trump hating Biden loving posters on here twisting words again! On the subject of Women A quick question to you Can you please define what a woman is?
Democrats seem to have a problem defining what a woman is
Strawman Central
I think the confusion lies with the people who repeatedly ask that question.
Culture war distraction Bullsh1t yet again.
The former president of the US and current front runner for the GOP nomination is credibly accused of rape, has said (disgustingly) that the alleged victim is not his type (inferring that he has a type he would rape) and then on tape mistook the alleged victim for his wife and furthermore, defended his the access Hollywood tape as being locker room talk and is on tape saying it's actually true.
But of course, let's try make it about gender definition
The efforts to defend him were always weak sauce, but lately they have become utterly laughable.
He's a disgusting example of a man, who makes a show of each of his defenders by ultimately exposing their efforts trying to defend him.
How many times have allegations been made, people rush out to assure against them and ultimately, they are proven to be true.
Ye are making a show of yourselves folks. Seriously.
The best part is imagine if Biden couldn't recognise a photo of his wife? It'd be all "Lets Go Brandon" and memes galore about his incompetence. Yet when Trump actually does it its back to "Whats a woman".
That amount would be compensatory damages. The jury can also award punitive damages
The double standards are always appalling.
Simple stuff and simple arguments for simple minds as one of my uncles used to say.
The what's a woman question often gets echoed from people who have no problems with supporting someone who has been charged and done time for physical and sexual assault, as to why that is is now that's the question.
Article in today’s Sunday Times from Brenda Power saying how we might regret Trumps chilly welcome in Clare. She apparently believes we should have rolled out the red carpet and had cheering crowds.
she end’s the article with reference to Richard Gere in pretty woman returning to a snooty shop with an obscene amount of money saying “we’re going to a lot more more help sucking up to us “ Next time Trump may well get it according to Brenda
Which other sex abusers does Brenda think we should roll out the red carpet for I wonder?
Even leaving aside opinions of each man, from a purely objective view, Biden came to visit places relevant to his family heritage and history and has repeatedly touted and celebrated his Irish heritage on the world stage. It was a visit by a sitting President who wanted to do public events.
Trump came to play golf at his Irish hotel, after playing golf at his Scottish hotel, and then travel back to America to probably play golf at his Florida hotel. He wasn't here for public engagements. The only place the red carpet could have been rolled out for him is between the 9th and 10th holes.
It's a complete false equivalence.
Who would have paid for the rent-a-crowd? Because that's the only way he would have got cheering crowds. Bit like the bagpipers in Scotland, and the red mat he also organised.
One of those saying we should be nice to Trump cos business and politics and then if he did get a warm welcome these people would be saying it is proof that the Irish love Trumps policies.
Really the article is just annoyed they can't claim more people think like them.
