Trump accuser E. Jean Carroll claims Donald Trump assaulted her in a department store dressing room, 30 years ago.
Over the years, Carroll has reportedly accused six other men, besides Trump, of assault, including former CBS head Les Moonves. The others, shockingly, she never named, saying only that she'd been assaulted.
That's quite a statistic, when you think about it. How many women can claim to have been assaulted seven times?
A little research reveals that E. Jean Carroll is a politically deep blue nut, making accusations in a politically deep blue region that has it in for Donald Trump. She's also been known to paint trees blue, to attract water. Unsurprisingly, none of this potentially mitigating evidence was permitted to be offered in Trump's defense.
Incidentally, "kangaroo courts" are a component of totalitarian governance.
Just saying.
What might've been, I wonder, had Trump still been a Democrat?
After all, while Carroll's accusation against Republican Trump is thoroughly believed, Clinton accusers like, among others, Juanita Brodderick, Kathleen Willey, and Paula Jones, Obama's pal Larry Sinclair and Biden victim Tara Reade, are all but dismissed.
It's well-known that when Clinton was Arkansas governor, staffers had a "hit team" standing ready, to smear and discredit his parade of frequent "bimbo eruptions."
Considering all this, making accusations against a Democrat Trump, Carroll likely would've been just another victim of the liberal media smear machine. I guess Jim Quinn is right: "when you're a Democrat, it's just ... different."
What's so terrible about Trump, anyway? Seriously.
Granted, he may or may not have been the best person, having made many questionable personal and business choices, but for four years, the proof was in the pudding -- he was a very good president.
Here's essentially how the online arguments often go:
Trump supporters: Bull market; soaring economy; across-the-board record employment; industry coming back; no new wars, with drawdowns in the ones we had; pro-Americanism; didn't take a salary, etc.
Trump haters: Mean tweets.
That's about it.
They just don't like him. Personally.
Fine, but things were undeniably much better under Trump.
One reason I came to support him, which I didn't originally, was this realization: All the right people hate him.
There has to be some reason the Democrats experience such utter fear and loathing -- they've made themselves a plague upon him, and the Republicans did as little as possible to help him, consisting mainly of useless pretense and posturing.
Trump causes such revulsion among the effete, upper-echelon political class because he's not a career politician, like they are. He sincerely wants to do the job effectively, thus presenting a threat to the cushy, corrupt (globalist) status quo they worked so hard together to build. So much rot has come to light, already, because in their panic at his unexpected election, they allowed much of their facade to slip.
If re-elected, he'd have absolutely no reason to play nice with any of them.
It'd be glorious.
