There’s been over two dozen accusations against Trump of everythingfrom harassment to outright rape. Taken together, the stories paint a picture of a man constantly assessing how far he can take the coercion without facing potential legal repercussions. In the story found to be true by a New York civil jury, E. Jean Carroll described how Trump got her alone in a department store dressing room before, as the judge recounted, “Trump ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape.’”
Here’s what’s so messed up about the ridiculous motion for mistrial because Stormy’s tale of disgusting sex was ‘prejudicial’: the defense denied any sex ever happened.
So, having a witness come in to answer questions about, uh yeah, the sex that absolutely happened is not “prejudicial”, it’s just Truth curb-stomping them.
If they were actually concerned with how it would make the demented rapist look (they weren’t), then the ploy to claim sex never happened was about as misguided as anything else trump’s pitiful legal teams have ever done. Because of course they were going to establish that it had happened.
Afterwards, they throw this pathetic excuse for a legal motion out there, no doubt simply to coddle the napping baby rather than through any actual reasoning.
Keep yappin’ Donnie. Keep digging up, you demented bastard.

In a Truth Social post, Trump attacked Biden − and Hamas − by accusing the president of “taking the side of these terrorists, just like he has sided with the Radical Mobs taking over our college campuses.”
I read Mary Trump’s book, and yeah Fred Christ did a number on every one of the kids, and the wife. So definitely damaged, but not that far away from a lot of other people.
I think you have to add that, 70 years, cocaine and adderall, and dementia to get the grotesque Antichrist who’s taken over the GQP.
It’s just so sad to watch the corporate news pantomime all these stories like he’s even remotely ‘normal’.
The Republican speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, traveled to Columbia University two weeks ago to decry the “virus of antisemitism” that he said pro-Palestinian protesters were spreading across the country. “They have chased down Jewish students.

While there’s little chance Greene would lose her reelection bid in November, her growing list of foes could mean a severely restricted future for the Georgia firebrand, at least in the House.
“She’s fundraising,” one member, granted anonymity to speak candidly, said. “She’s pissed off because she was friends with [former Speaker Kevin] McCarthy and she missed the first vacancy, so she called the second vacancy."
Sad but probably true. Three-toed mouthbreathing hillbilly crypto-fascists are gonna vote.
