Taking On Trump

("E. Jean Carroll Must Be Going Through Hell")
So they didn't call a single witness. And the Defendant didn't even bother showing up. You see, they are saying, this is so ludicrous that it doesn't even deserve our full attention.
Welcome to Donald Trump's world.
This is a man who denied his wealth was a result of being handed a boatload of bucks from his first breath. Who denied abusing those who did business with him at every turn, who found filing of multiple corporate bankruptcies just a clever way to use the system, who held up as a badge of honor whatever manner of subterfuge it required to avoid paying income taxes, who as candidate for President found it wholly appropriate to demean anyone who challenged his superiority, who handled four years of the presidency by continually lying to the American public, by giving those in his Administration and in the other branches of government the back of his hand whenever he wished, who has made a career of treating women with disdain and contempt, and who, with virtually certainty, did to Ms. Carroll exactly what she stated because he was and always will be Donald F...ing Trump. Because cruelty fits him perfectly.
This is the world E. Jean Carroll has allowed herself to enter because she decided it was impossible not to take on the beast. Knowing full well what she would face. Because this is what happens to all who point a finger at Mr. Trump.
So we do have sympathy for her plight? If we have even a shred of human decency we damn well should.
