Thank you to the intrepid souls who braved the fever swamp. It seems the reactions were mostly as I expected.

(3,373 posts)How stupid are these people?
That's not how appeals work.
That's also not how anyone with an actual defense works either.
I'm grinning, btw, imagining Melania laying into him tonight.

(11,545 posts)and checked out Oann. Their headline was verdict reached in Carroll case not mentioning what it was, in article downplayed everything.
I read a bunch of comments all what I thought about it being in New York, political, the dems paid for it, all the type of things I thought they would say.
They absolutely don't believe it really happened. At least no one was stupid enough to say it was okay even if he did it.

(49,138 posts)1) insistence that nothing non-consensual could have happened because women supposedly find Trump so desirable, and
2) insistence that if he was not found liable for rape, then Carroll had defamed him and what he'd said about her was justified defense against a false accusation.
And there were lots of tweets about the verdict not changing their support of Trump.
Not rational reactions. But if they were rational, they wouldn't have supported Trump in the first place.
