Why state-level legal minutiae impacts what words are used to describe the former president's criminal conduct.

District Judge Lewis Kaplan has said it multiple times: Donald Trump raped E. Jean Carroll in 1996. Kaplan wrote it in May 2023, when he presided over one of the trials against Trump.

    A rapist who is not only sickeningly still walking free, but is the frontrunner for the Nazi party.

      I mean, that has more to do with how low the bar has been set. Trump has been digging diligently for decades, but the bar is halfway through the planet’s mantle.

      The thing is, when you allow the single opposing party in our system to run against a literal Nazi party, no one wins. Except the wealthy of course.
