Trump, Defamation Case, Rape Accusations
Posted: January 27th, 2024, 8:33 am
I was reading about a Trump case where Trump was ordered to pay 10s of millions in damages for defamation.
The woman claims she was in a department store, started flirting with Trump, went into a dressing room, and he pressed her against the wall, stuck it in her and raped her, and she didn't scream.
Then I read the court decided he was liable of something or other, not technically legally rape under civil law in New York, but not beyond a reasonable doubt, just preponderance of the evidence. His lawyer verbal reprimands for basically maintaining his innocence since the jury had accepted that he had done things he was accused of.
I know women say they freeze up. But if a woman flirts with a man and agrees to go into a dressing room with her. He pulls down or over her panties, pulls it out, and has sex with her and she doesn't even scream, should that legally count as rape? I know people say they freeze, but shouldn't she be expected to scream? And if a woman is going to go into a dressing room with a man she is flirting with like that, should she have any standing to cry rape, if she didn't even scream?
I'm not saying a man should behave like that. How about accusing them both of adultery? If he was married at the time, why would she flirt and go into a dressing room?
A scenario where they kiss hot and heavy and then boom, they are having sex, why don't they say if you are slutty enough to put yourself in that situation-- not just get tricked into a dressing room or someone barges in on you-- then why not throw a rape case out?
It's like if a girl invites a guy over to her apartment, goes to bed naked, then charges him with rape because she didn't specifically verbally invite him to enter...it's ridiculous to call that rape. I've got no problem with the old adultery or fornication charges being leveled against them, but rape?
Of course, Trump paints this as a ridiculous scenario and says he didn't do it. The courts and legal system in New York are probably very biased against him. There was someone who ran campaigning on bringing some kind of charges against Trump. I don't like a system where finding some kind of charges against a man serve as the basis of a political campaign. On the other hand, Trump hasn't been known to live the most moral lifestyle.
