We said that from the beginning on Legal AF. They were never going to settle this case, we said.

It's public. She talks about it. It's part of her personal story. I have no reason to doubt it. That's not my point. But when George Stephanopoulos said to her in an interview, how can you support Donald Trump? where at least two juries, federal juries in New York have adjudged him to be. And then he used the R word. He should have said technical rapist, which is what the judge said.

And the reason we're hung up on the semantics here and splitting hairs over something ridiculous, because whether you're a sex abuser in New York or you're a rapist in New York, I don't see how you could ever be defamed. I don't know how Donald Trump with his reputation could ever be defamed anyway. You have to have an unsullied reputation in order to be defamed. But the issue is this.

In New York, at the time that E. Jean Carroll was sexually assaulted by Donald Trump, she could not accurately testify to the jury because her eyes were closed because she was being sexually assaulted. She could not tell them what part of Donald Trump was inside of her. whether she was digitally or with a penis.

She could not tell them what part of Donald Trump was inside of her. whether she was digitally or with a penis.
And so the jury said, okay, sexual abuse under the law as it existed in New York at the time. The law has been changed. Now it would be rape. And the judge said when Donald Trump tried the same defamation trick against E. Jean Carroll to try to sue the victim, In that court case, the judge says, because she used the R word, the judge says, no, technically you are a rapist.

I mean, that is a federal judge. So for Stephanopoulos to say to Nancy Mace, how can you, a rape survivor, support somebody who's been a judge to be a rapist? That's what this whole thing is about, for those who don't know. Now, Nancy Mace, did you see Nancy Mace's comments?

Yeah. She said that she was shamed as a rape victim, which is ridiculous. And then Jeremy, our producer, do you have the social media post that she just put up today? or after the ABC. First of you, and this is Nancy Mace, and now ABC News, we are so back. 2025 will be the year of mainstream media apologies. Okay. And they love this, don't they?
