But to many observers on social media, that’s exactly what the Fulton County district attorney was doing.
Writer E. Jean Carroll accused Trump of raping her in a Manhattan department store in a lawsuit, and a jury found him liable for sexual abuse. A judge this month rejected Trump’s defamation counterclaim, saying Carroll’s insistence in a post-verdict TV interview that Trump raped her was “substantially true.”
“Mr. Trump did in fact ’rape’ Ms. Carroll as that term commonly is used and understood in contacts outside of the New York Penal Law,” Judge Lewis Kaplan wrote in tossing Trump’s suit.
I’m fine with people wanting more information. That’s a good thing! But everyone should find that information themselves. I’m some random person on the internet, and that’s how I approach every claim I read from others. We live in the information age, and if you are reading this and posting things in lemmy/reddit/Facebook/Twitter /etc you have all the resources needed to find peer reviewed studies and articles. Every adult individual needs to be their own researcher of knowledge. Ultimately it wouldn’t matter what source I provide if you are not willing to read up on several other studies that cover phycology, economics, history, politics, and so much more. All together they help create my opinion that “White Collar Crime” undermines democracy, weakens capitalism, and leads to blue collar crime.
