Why do news articles continue to say he "allegedly" assaulted her? This is just irresponsible journalism, designed to soften the fact that Trump sexually assaulted her, and a court has proven that fact

... he left the courtroom Thursday bristling to the spectators: “This is not America.”
Sir, this is consequences.
TBH I would have just let him keep talking. It would be great for the case against him.
That would have led to a mistrial, and further served to delay justice. What Judge Kaplan did was absolutely the right thing, and in the best interest of all parties involved.
He's not allowed to lie to the jury.
lmao Perjury is consistently among his criminal charges whether state or federal.
That's just because of all the perjury traps
Edit: lmao, didn't think I needed an /s on that one
“She said something that I considered to be a false accusation,” he said, later adding: “I just wanted to defend myself, my family and, frankly, the presidency.”
You sexually assaulted her in 1996 you dumb sack of shit. It was two full decades before you fell ass backwards into the Oval office. This has nothing to do with the presidency. It's about you and your crimes.
Edit: The defamation claim is absolutely about the sexual assault taking place. That’s what he was referring to when he said “something I consider to be a false accusation”. Anyone trying to tell you this trial has nothing to do with the sexual assault is an idiot.
You're missing it.
He's claiming the presidency he experienced changes/colors/empowers his current and past actions.
To him, a president or former president should never be on trial for this. To him a president had ascended from crimes of the flesh.
I am all for this as a policy as long as Obama promises to murder him.
I also wouldn't mind Biden shooting him. Maybe the Republicans then change their minds about gun controll.
Enough Malarkey
Does that mean we can charge him with crimes of the spirit? Heresy or purity charges, anyone?
