An attorney for E. Jean Carroll said the lesson from the recent trial with former President Trump was that “lies are gonna catch up to you someday.”
“I believe very strongly after today, that the lesson is that actually, no one’s above the law,” Shawn Crowley said in an interview on MSNBC Friday. “And that your behavior, and your statements, and your threats and your lies are gonna catch up to you someday.”
A jury ordered Trump to pay $83.3 million Friday for defaming Carroll in 2019, when he denied that he sexually assaulted her. The former president said he will appeal the verdict shortly after it was issued.
I don’t want that. I mean I hate Trump but that’s pretty awful.
If I didn’t see him as a real and present danger to US stability, I would agree with you. Hell if he was simply just a poor leader I would agree with you. But in this case he is doing real damage to US politics and trust in the system. And this comes from a fairly right leaning person.
Well, that’s a whole other thing.
Imagine if he died at all, let alone in a public spectacular way, half the country would be absolutely convinced that he had been assassinated.
The best way to get rid of him is for the legal stuff to reach the conclusion that he’s a criminal, then have him lose the election in a spectacular defeat.
Right? I can’t believe you got downvoted for you opinion. Damn pitchfork crew is in full effect.
There is nothing wrong with wanting someone to die a natural death after they are responsible for a lot of unnatural deaths.
I didn’t say there was anything “wrong” with wanting someone dead, just that I don’t.
Life is miserable enough without wishing people dead.
People are going to downvote you because nuance is hard for people. Hating a person but not wanting them to die horribly can’t seem to live in most internet dummies heads’.
Can I at least wish that they would die in a manner most befitting of the way that they have lived? Thematically appropriate. Dies in the limelight with comedic timing after being asked to prove his mental acuity. Funeral is televised with literally everything gold plated. Crowdfunding for said event drains potential Republican fundraising efforts for a solid decade. Post-Trump Republicans trying to play up the demagogue position labeled as the new RINOs. All January 6th insurrectionists ultra convicted. Trump Estate dissolved pending all litigation. GOP decides not to go full crazy without demagogue support. Democrats win three straight elections as MAGA Republicans get roped into SovCit demonstrations that have no popular support at all.
