  Maybe you should read the case again. The case was about defamation. A civil trial can’t convict someone of a criminal offense.

  Why are you talking about Trump’s integrity? How strange. I never claimed he had any. The access hollywood tape was not a confession of sexual assault.

    Maybe you should read the case again. The case was about defamation.

    Defamation, AND Sexual Assault. Here’s a quote:

    In the civil case, the federal jury of six men and three women found that Ms. Carroll, 79, a former magazine writer, had sufficiently proved that Mr. Trump sexually abused her nearly 30 years ago in a dressing room of the Bergdorf Goodman department store in Manhattan.

    Maybe it’s you who needs to re-read?

    A civil trial can’t convict someone of a criminal offense.

    I never claimed it did, I think you’re just expecting it to have been a criminal trial. They found him liable of it, so he’s been found to have sexually assaulted someone. And once again, I prefer Presidents who DON’T sexually assault women.

    You’re the one who brought up Trump’s integrity, I’m simply responding to it.

      Sexual abuse, not sexual assault. Yet, this story has nothing to do with your claim. I am not sure why you keep bringing it up. It is a civil case and most likely will be overturned when appealed.

      When did Trump admit to sexually assaulting anyone?

      You’re the one who brought up Trump’s integrity,

      This is how I know you are trolling. Where did I ever mention Trump’s integrity? Stop babbling and cite where I every said anything about his integrity.

        Sexual assault is a form of sexual abuse yo. Try to keep up.

        Furthermore, the terms are different but the acts typically fall under one or more definitions. A more accurate, broader term used nowadays would be “sexual violence”. I’ll let you look up the specifics if you’re interested in learning more about it.

        It’s all sexual harassment too, so however you want to split hairs about it we should be able to agree that it’s at least that.

        With this in mind, justifications for what he said in the access Hollywood tape kind of lose all credibility.
