    Good grief. You can't state that someone was convicted of rape when

    Yes, if you knew they weren't. And iirc he said "found *liable* for

    Of course, I could mitigate his choice as seeking a provocative

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-abc-george-stephanopoulos-lawsuit-defamation-b2664508.html

    I'm not buying what the judge wrote last year that the plaintiff proved
    "rape" as commonly understood by the public even though no rape had
    occurred using the legal definition of "rape". The jury was asked to
    make a specific finding of "rape" and they said no. She still won the
    case on other points even if not on that point. The judge was wrong to
    second guess the jury here on the finding they made on a specific set of
    facts.

    From your cited article:

    "ôDonald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that
    rape by a jury,ö Stephonopoulos said on ABCÆs This Week at the time.
    ôItÆs been affirmed by a judge.ö

    Juries in New York found Trump liable for defaming and sexually
    abusing E Jean Carroll after he repeatedly called her a liar for
    speaking publicly about allegations that he assaulted her in the
    1990s. Trump has appealed the nearly $90 million in judgments against
    him.

    Last year, the judge overseeing those cases wrote that CarrollÆs
    failure to ôprove that she was ærapedÆ within the meaning of the New
    York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr Trump
    ærapedÆ her as many people commonly understand the word ærape.Æö

    ôIndeed, as the evidence at trial ... makes clear, the jury found that
    Mr Trump in fact did exactly that,ö US District Judge Lewis Kaplan
    wrote."

    Honestly Trump has a case against the judge as well. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    What redeeming aspect of Trump's character did George falsely besmirch?


    If you need the facts of ABC admitted lie explained to you, you're not
    worth the bytes it would take.

    Your President-elect forcibly finger fucked her. Explain *that* fact.


    Trump was not convicted of rape. ABC said he was. They lied. >>>>>>>>>>>>
    End of story.

    In other jurisdictions it's considered rape/

    No one cares. He was charge and found not guilty.

    End of story.

    Well, you're right that not many care about the technical 'not guilty'.

    It's a fact that NY law makes a misleading technical distinction. >>>>>>>

    Laughter.

    Go ahead and explain it for us.

    We think you don't really want an explanation.


    It's your claim. If you can't explain it, then we all understand that >>>> you're lying.

    We all recognize a genuine request for explanation when we all hear one. >>>

    Non-response is noted.
    Please try again.

    Okay, we'll try to catch you between your peals of laughter...

    NY law says that only penile insertion is rape. E.g., across the river,
    NJ disagrees. And so do the vast majority of Americans, I'd guess, so
    that no one is confused when they read that, e.g., NY cops raped Abner
    Louima with a broom handle...


    And Trump was found not guilty of rape. Do you think it's fine for a journalist to insist that a clear lie is true?

    She stonewalled his question by chanting a baseless accusation.


    What "baseless accusation"?
    You have this completely backwards.

    Well, "backwards" is certainly what she was going for. She tried to
    turn his question ("How can a rapee support a rapist?") into shaming
    raped women for their "political choices". I can't even begin...


    Look at you blaming the (literal) victim.
    You're pathetic.

    Yes, if you knew they weren't. And iirc he said "found *liable* for
    rape", not "convicted" ...which may have been raised as relevant.


    Are you now trying to say that Boy George gave an interview without

    No, as I understand it, his homework was even done *for* him. But he

    To state that he was convicted of rape is not a description. It's a

    Again, he said "found *liable* for rape", not "convicted". And, again,
    it's unclear whether that difference might've borne out as important.

    I'm not buying what the judge wrote last year that the plaintiff proved
    "rape" as commonly understood by the public even though no rape had
    occurred using the legal definition of "rape". The jury was asked to
    make a specific finding of "rape" and they said no. She still won the
    case on other points even if not on that point. The judge was wrong to
    second guess the jury here on the finding they made on a specific set of
    facts.

    From your cited article:

    "“Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that
    rape by a jury,” Stephonopoulos said on ABC’s This Week at the time.
    “It’s been affirmed by a judge.”

    Juries in New York found Trump liable for defaming and sexually
    abusing E Jean Carroll after he repeatedly called her a liar for
    speaking publicly about allegations that he assaulted her in the
    1990s. Trump has appealed the nearly $90 million in judgments against
    him.

    Last year, the judge overseeing those cases wrote that Carroll’s
    failure to “prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New
    York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr Trump
    ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape.’”

    “Indeed, as the evidence at trial ... makes clear, the jury found that
    Mr Trump in fact did exactly that,” US District Judge Lewis Kaplan
    wrote."

    Honestly Trump has a case against the judge as well. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    What redeeming aspect of Trump's character did George falsely besmirch?


    If you need the facts of ABC admitted lie explained to you, you're not
    worth the bytes it would take.

    Your President-elect forcibly finger fucked her. Explain *that* fact.

    We think you don't really want an explanation.

    Please try again.

    Okay, we'll try to catch you between your peals of laughter...

    NY law says that only penile insertion is rape. E.g., across the river,
    NJ disagrees. And so do the vast majority of Americans, I'd guess, so
    that no one is confused when they read that, e.g., NY cops raped Abner
    Louima with a broom handle...


    And Trump was found not guilty of rape. Do you think it's fine for a journalist to insist that a clear lie is true?

    Not guilty of rape as narrowly defined by NY law ...but guilty of
    actions which, legally and colloquially, are considered rape elsewhere.

    Yes, if you knew they weren't. And iirc he said "found *liable* for >>>>> rape", not "convicted" ...which may have been raised as relevant.


    Are you now trying to say that Boy George gave an interview without
    doing his homework?

    No, as I understand it, his homework was even done *for* him. But he
    chose to describe Trump as harshly as possible. It's unclear what
    verdict a full reckoning -- i.e., no "settlement" -- would've given.


    To state that he was convicted of rape is not a description. It's a
    claim of fact, which is why ABC is paying big bucks.

    Again, he said "found *liable* for rape", not "convicted". And, again,
    it's unclear whether that difference might've borne out as important.


    He was not convicted nor "iiable" for rape. The judge in the civil
    case was wrong on the law as much as you are. It's a shame you can't
    sue judges cause that would be fantastic.

    What disgraceful bbehavior did she exhibit?

    She stonewalled his question by chanting a baseless accusation.


    What "baseless accusation"?
    You have this completely backwards.

    Well, "backwards" is certainly what she was going for. She tried to
    turn his question ("How can a rapee support a rapist?") into shaming
    raped women for their "political choices". I can't even begin...

    Look at you blaming the (literal) victim.
    You're pathetic.

    Yes, you parrot her faithfully.

    Your evasion is noted and is your admission that you've lost the

    You're welcome to explain it us how a jury finding Trump not guilty of
    rape makes him guilty of it.

    Laugher.

    There's legal guilt, and then there's understood guilt. Trump escapes >>>>>>>> the former only by a specific distinction in a specific jurisdiction. >>>>>>>>

    Good grief. You can't state that someone was convicted of rape when >>>>>>> they weren't. That's libel.

    Yes, if you knew they weren't. And iirc he said "found *liable* for >>>>>> rape", not "convicted" ...which may have been raised as relevant.


    Are you now trying to say that Boy George gave an interview without
    doing his homework?

    No, as I understand it, his homework was even done *for* him. But he
    chose to describe Trump as harshly as possible. It's unclear what
    verdict a full reckoning -- i.e., no "settlement" -- would've given.


    To state that he was convicted of rape is not a description. It's a
    claim of fact, which is why ABC is paying big bucks.

    Again, he said "found *liable* for rape", not "convicted". And, again,
    it's unclear whether that difference might've borne out as important.


    He was not convicted nor "iiable" for rape. The judge in the civil
    case was wrong on the law as much as you are. It's a shame you can't
    sue judges cause that would be fantastic.

    Afaik, there's no definitive meaning of "found liable for rape".

    I'm not buying what the judge wrote last year that the plaintiff proved
    "rape" as commonly understood by the public even though no rape had
    occurred using the legal definition of "rape". The jury was asked to
    make a specific finding of "rape" and they said no. She still won the
    case on other points even if not on that point. The judge was wrong to
    second guess the jury here on the finding they made on a specific set of
    facts.

    From your cited article:

    "“Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that
    rape by a jury,” Stephonopoulos said on ABC’s This Week at the time.
    “It’s been affirmed by a judge.”

    Juries in New York found Trump liable for defaming and sexually
    abusing E Jean Carroll after he repeatedly called her a liar for
    speaking publicly about allegations that he assaulted her in the
    1990s. Trump has appealed the nearly $90 million in judgments against
    him.

    Last year, the judge overseeing those cases wrote that Carroll’s
    failure to “prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New
    York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr Trump
    ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape.’”

    “Indeed, as the evidence at trial ... makes clear, the jury found that
    Mr Trump in fact did exactly that,” US District Judge Lewis Kaplan
    wrote."

    Honestly Trump has a case against the judge as well. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    What redeeming aspect of Trump's character did George falsely besmirch?


    If you need the facts of ABC admitted lie explained to you, you're not
    worth the bytes it would take.

    Your President-elect forcibly finger fucked her. Explain *that* fact.


    Trump was not convicted of rape. ABC said he was. They lied. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    Well, you're right that not many care about the technical 'not guilty'.

    It's not technical. It's fact. Trying to spin otherwise is engaging
    in technicalities.

    It's a fact that NY law makes a misleading technical distinction. >>>>>>>>>>

    Not guilty of rape as narrowly defined by NY law ...but guilty of
    actions which, legally and colloquially, are considered rape elsewhere.


    Look at you trying to redefine NY law.
    They found him not guilty of rape.
    Boy George said no fewer than 10 times that he was found guilty.
    Trump sued.
    ABC settled because it was an obvious libel.

    I'm not buying what the judge wrote last year that the plaintiff proved
    "rape" as commonly understood by the public even though no rape had
    occurred using the legal definition of "rape". The jury was asked to
    make a specific finding of "rape" and they said no. She still won the
    case on other points even if not on that point. The judge was wrong to
    second guess the jury here on the finding they made on a specific set of
    facts.

    From your cited article:

    "“Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that
    rape by a jury,” Stephonopoulos said on ABC’s This Week at the time.
    “It’s been affirmed by a judge.” >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Juries in New York found Trump liable for defaming and sexually
    abusing E Jean Carroll after he repeatedly called her a liar for
    speaking publicly about allegations that he assaulted her in the
    1990s. Trump has appealed the nearly $90 million in judgments against
    him.

    Last year, the judge overseeing those cases wrote that Carroll’s
    failure to “prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New
    York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr Trump
    ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape.’”

    “Indeed, as the evidence at trial ... makes clear, the jury found that
    Mr Trump in fact did exactly that,” US District Judge Lewis Kaplan
    wrote."

    Honestly Trump has a case against the judge as well. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    What redeeming aspect of Trump's character did George falsely besmirch?


    If you need the facts of ABC admitted lie explained to you, you're not
    worth the bytes it would take.

    Your President-elect forcibly finger fucked her. Explain *that* fact.


    Trump was not convicted of rape. ABC said he was. They lied.

    End of story.

    In other jurisdictions it's considered rape/

    No one cares. He was charge and found not guilty. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    End of story.

    Well, you're right that not many care about the technical 'not guilty'.

    It's not technical. It's fact. Trying to spin otherwise is engaging
    in technicalities.

    It's a fact that NY law makes a misleading technical distinction. >>>>>>>>>>>>

    Go ahead and explain it for us.

    We think you don't really want an explanation.


    It's your claim. If you can't explain it, then we all understand that

    We all recognize a genuine request for explanation when we all hear one.


    Non-response is noted.
    Please try again.

    Okay, we'll try to catch you between your peals of laughter...

    They found him not guilty of rape.
    Boy George said no fewer than 10 times that he was found guilty.

    find any legal reference where Trump was found legally liable for
    rape.

    Nothing about a settlement is obvious, except to an "expert".

    "rape" as commonly understood by the public even though no rape had
    occurred using the legal definition of "rape". The jury was asked to
    make a specific finding of "rape" and they said no. She still won the

    second guess the jury here on the finding they made on a specific set of

    From your cited article: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    "ôDonald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that

    ôItÆs been affirmed by a judge.ö

    Juries in New York found Trump liable for defaming and sexually
    abusing E Jean Carroll after he repeatedly called her a liar for
    speaking publicly about allegations that he assaulted her in the
    1990s. Trump has appealed the nearly $90 million in judgments against
    him.

    Last year, the judge overseeing those cases wrote that CarrollÆs
    failure to ôprove that she was ærapedÆ within the meaning of the New
    York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr Trump
    ærapedÆ her as many people commonly understand the word ærape.Æö

    ôIndeed, as the evidence at trial ... makes clear, the jury found that
    Mr Trump in fact did exactly that,ö US District Judge Lewis Kaplan
    wrote."

    Honestly Trump has a case against the judge as well. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    What redeeming aspect of Trump's character did George falsely besmirch?


    If you need the facts of ABC admitted lie explained to you, you're not
    worth the bytes it would take.

    Your President-elect forcibly finger fucked her. Explain *that* fact.


    Trump was not convicted of rape. ABC said he was. They lied.

    Well, you're right that not many care about the technical 'not guilty'.

    He was not convicted nor "iiable" for rape. The judge in the civil

    Afaik, there's no definitive meaning of "found liable for rape".


    Obviously ABC knew what that meant because they settled REALLY
    quickly. Liable has a specific legal definition. You're welcome to
    find any legal reference where Trump was found legally liable for
    rape.

    Nothing about a settlement is obvious, except to an "expert".

    I'm not buying what the judge wrote last year that the plaintiff proved
    "rape" as commonly understood by the public even though no rape had
    occurred using the legal definition of "rape". The jury was asked to
    make a specific finding of "rape" and they said no. She still won the
    case on other points even if not on that point. The judge was wrong to
    second guess the jury here on the finding they made on a specific set of
    facts.

    From your cited article: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    "“Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that
    rape by a jury,” Stephonopoulos said on ABC’s This Week at the time.
    “It’s been affirmed by a judge.” >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Juries in New York found Trump liable for defaming and sexually
    abusing E Jean Carroll after he repeatedly called her a liar for
    speaking publicly about allegations that he assaulted her in the
    1990s. Trump has appealed the nearly $90 million in judgments against
    him.

    Last year, the judge overseeing those cases wrote that Carroll’s
    failure to “prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New
    York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr Trump
    ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape.’”

    “Indeed, as the evidence at trial ... makes clear, the jury found that
    Mr Trump in fact did exactly that,” US District Judge Lewis Kaplan
    wrote."

    Honestly Trump has a case against the judge as well. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    What redeeming aspect of Trump's character did George falsely besmirch?


    If you need the facts of ABC admitted lie explained to you, you're not
    worth the bytes it would take.

    Your President-elect forcibly finger fucked her. Explain *that* fact.


    Trump was not convicted of rape. ABC said he was. They lied.

    End of story.

    In other jurisdictions it's considered rape/ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    No one cares. He was charge and found not guilty. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    Well, you're right that not many care about the technical 'not guilty'.

    It's not technical. It's fact. Trying to spin otherwise is engaging
    in technicalities.

    It's a fact that NY law makes a misleading technical distinction.


    Laughter.

    Go ahead and explain it for us.

    We think you don't really want an explanation.


    It's your claim. If you can't explain it, then we all understand that
    you're lying.

    We all recognize a genuine request for explanation when we all hear one.


    Non-response is noted.
    Please try again.

    Okay, we'll try to catch you between your peals of laughter... >>>>>>>>
    NY law says that only penile insertion is rape. E.g., across the river,
    NJ disagrees. And so do the vast majority of Americans, I'd guess, so >>>>>>>> that no one is confused when they read that, e.g., NY cops raped Abner >>>>>>>> Louima with a broom handle...


    And Trump was found not guilty of rape. Do you think it's fine for a >>>>>>> journalist to insist that a clear lie is true?

    Not guilty of rape as narrowly defined by NY law ...but guilty of
    actions which, legally and colloquially, are considered rape elsewhere. >>>>>>

    Look at you trying to redefine NY law.
    They found him not guilty of rape.
    Boy George said no fewer than 10 times that he was found guilty.
    Trump sued.
    ABC settled because it was an obvious libel.
    You stumble around trying to defend Boy George.

    You lose.

    Laughter.

    Well, laughter is certainly appropriate here. Just not yours...

    Weak response on your part noted.
    You don't seem to do well with facts, do you?

    Not nearly so well as you do with "notes"...

    And you evade again.

    Uh-oh. Run out of "laughter"? Did I "lose" again?

    (What do I "redefine NY law" as? Quote me. Betcha can't...)
