District Judge Lewis Kaplan has said it multiple times: Donald Trump raped E. Jean Carroll in 1996. Kaplan wrote it in May 2023, when he presided over one of the trials against Trump.

You’re getting shit on for raising a perfectly valid point regarding how our society views the subject of this post.
People don’t want to be shown the hypocrisy of their positions though so like we see time after time when people want to talk about gun control after a mass shooting, ‘now is not the time or place’ to address these issues and politicize this awful tragedy.
All forms of sexual assault should be taken seriously. The imbalance in the laws is an injustice to all victims.
