Another view: This is a case that should never have been brought. The original incident occurred in 1995 or 1996; Carroll has said she does not remember precisely. She told two friends what she said happened, but never said another word to anyone, including authorities. Five years passed, then 10, then 15, then 20. Even in 2016, when a number of women accused Donald Trump of sexual misconduct, Carroll stayed silent, in part because she worried that accusing Trump might help him politically, and she most certainly did not want to do that. She only spoke up in 2019, during promotion for a new book in which she revealed the alleged incident. She got lots of media, including a splashy rollout in New York magazine. (She also conducted paid 'Hideous Men' walking tours of New York, including a stop at Bergdorf Goodman, where she said the attack occurred.) She originally had no thought of suing Trump. Then she went to a Resistance cocktail party in Manhattan in honor of Kathy Griffin, the comedian famous for holding up a bloody effigy of Donald Trump's severed head. There she met the anti-Trump lawyer George Conway, who convinced her she had a good case and suggested a lawyer. She hired the lawyer. Plus: New York passed a one-year-only #MeToo law lifting the statute of limitations to allow people who said they were victimized long ago to sue. So all those years in which Carroll never said a word no longer mattered; Carroll sued minutes after the new law took effect. And to top it off, the Democratic megadonor Reid Hoffman paid for the whole operation! This case was political from the start. There is no way to know what did or did not happen in 1995 or 1996. It should never have been brought.
And now, with an $83.3 million damage award based on an accusation that can never be proved or disproved, the lawyer behind the lawsuit pronounces on CNN: 'It brings to mind the old saying, the saying attributed to Dr. Martin Luther King -- the moral arc of the universe is long, but it bends toward justice.'

How does Byron not understand that this was proved, by the determination of a jury in federal court? How much more “proved” can something be?

Raw emotion is a terrible trait for a litigator.

Holy moly, if that's her way of faking being smart....so embarrassing. It's My Cousin Vinny all over again. Way to go Jersey girl.
I hate Trump and agree with jury’s verdict. But Hubba is amazing. She just completed two ling complicated trials, one criminal and one civil, she is extremely passionate of what she is doing.

He was never proven to have raped
After the trial, a judge clarified that Trump can be called a rapist because the act for which he was found guilty of sexual assault is considered “rape” in common parlance, even though it is not according to the the more narrowly defined NY code. Therefore, it is accurate to say he was not convicted of rape, but also completely accurate to say he is a rapist.
There is a law, and there is a judge’s clarification. We should stick with the law.

Yes. He will pay something. He can't declare bankruptcy because he says he worth billions. I am eagerly awaiting judge Engoron verdict. Maybe owing all that money will give him a cardiac arrest.
His staffers will create a special PAC and get gullible followers to donate to pay his legal bills. Honestly he doesn't need to commit financial fraud to raise money from gullible
