Summary
Donald Trump has been ordered to sit for a deposition the week of Dec. 16 in his defamation lawsuit against ABC News and George Stephanopoulos.
The lawsuit stems from Stephanopoulos’ March statement that Trump had been “found liable for rape,” which Trump claims is defamatory.
While a jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll but not for rape, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan later stated Trump did “‘rape’ Ms. Carroll as that term commonly is used.”
Both Trump and Stephanopoulos will be deposed, with sessions limited to four hours.
Are you suggesting that ABC News should do something about this case outside of the law? Maybe they should send a large guy to tell Trump he needs to keep quiet about this defamation business.
Anyone can decide to become a vigilante. Saying anyone should is against the TOS, so no.
I’m suggesting that legal justice WILL NOT happen as indicated by the plethora of times Trump has broken the law and faced minimal or no consequences. He is above the law. That leaves us with two remaining options.
Someone could become a vigilante because they were frivolously sued for defamation. I guess we’ll see what Stephanopoulos’ next move is.
