Jury finds that Donald Trump sexually abused E. Jean Carroll in civil case

[DaleCooper]

Fox News isn’t talking about it.

I wouldn't even be surprised if CNN barely brings it up during his appearance there tomorrow.

CORRECTION: Fox News has commented on the case in at least one segment.

All of the Republicans currently expressing concern will support Donald Trump in the end. Every horrible thing he's accused of ultimately gets incorporated into their perception of what "Real America" is, and sexual abuse liability will be no exception.

Well the fallout is already beginning:

You guys are grasping at straws. Trump is in big trouble and it's only going to get worse for him from here

Yep, what the current polls miss is that Trump is going to be stuck in a lot of scandals and he is going to be just totally destroyed at the debates when everyone gangs up on him. I suspect DeSantis will be the main beneficiary in the end, but it could be Haley or someone else.

This is why I think the threads that DeSantis is DOA are grossly premature and likely wrong. Between this civil suit verdict, at least one indictment, probably at least one or more additional ones by the time primary season starts I believe the large majority of Republican primary and caucus voters will understand that this guy who wants got very lucky by threading the needle with the Electoral College 8 years ago is completely unelectable.

DeSantis may not exactly be setting the world on fire, and I suppose it's possible that some other candidate like Haley or Scott might come out of the woodwork as the primary season moves on, DeSantis still looks like a solid odds on favorite for the nomination. Frankly, unless Trump completely collapses that will only help DeSantis as it will provide less oxygen for another candidate to grow as a contender against him and trump.

The problem with DeSantis is that he is trying to defeat Trump by worshipping Trump and never going further than a backhanded compliment. Obviously he can't get away with offending Trump's worshippers but he going to need to be critical of him and he's refusing to do that. All he's doing is obsessing over fake cultural issues.

It's just good to see Trump found guilty of something honestly. He's a f-ing creep and I hope this makes a difference. Probably won't but, hopefully a few more people couldn't take it anymore and won't support him.

Honestly, they'll just switch to desantis. All the fascism without the baggage. Though about 98% of them if forced to choose between Biden and a cereal sexual batter they'll just hoot and chortle at memes about Biden being huggy and support Trump anyway.

DeSantis isn’t a fascist and yes I’m gonna proudly vote for him if he is the nominee

He legalized discrimination and took punitive measures against a company just because they criticized him.
He is the epitome of a fascist.

Was The Bush/Cheney administration fascist because I remember when liberals used to call them that too

The Bush administration was evil beyond even biblical proportions.
