Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time?

I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not.

"Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Goodman store some 25 or 30 years ago and raped her in a dressing room where they were trying on lingerie."

"Disgusting lies" that were found to be true by a jury of his peers in a previous court case, of course.  I guess not only E. Jean Carroll, but two juries, two judges and the entire legal system are "crazed."  Makes more sense than to believe that this open pervert who has said he does whatever he wants with women could have done what he was found guilty of.

Today, the crooked court ordered President Trump to pay E. Jean Carroll $83 million for something he said about this crazy woman back when he was president in 2019."

"Something."  Something viciously hateful which he has repeated over and over again ever since, in a transparent effort to cause some crazy person to kill her, and to make the whole country hate her, a task at which he completely failed, or he wouldn't be so filled with rage now.

"Free speech is no longer allowed in this country, especially for Republican lawmakers, Trump supporters, and conservative journalists."

This refers to the normal rules in any courtroom: attorneys and defendants must restrict their statements in court to matters relevant to the charges, must not try to relitigate charges already decided by a jury, must not engage in personal attacks or unrelated political ravings, and must not engage in attempted character assassination of the victim, the jury, the judge or the prosecutor.  That is the "free speech" that Trump was not allowed: the same restrictions that have always applied to anyone in a courtroom.

"Today, the crooked court ordered President Trump to pay E. Jean Carroll $83 million for something he said about this crazy woman back when he was president in 2019"

Yeah, right on, baby, and not a tenth of what he deserves, which is to be held in prison in solitary confinement until all of the 91 charges against him are resolved, to prevent his endless open attempts to incite violence if he is not allowed to engage in the basest of criminal behavior.

Anyway, enough of this.  On to some of the comments from readers of this garbage:

"E. Jean Carroll is a mentally unwell woman who previously told CNN she fantasizes about rape."

"That freak owes Trump hundreds of millions for falsifying a crime….and then at the very least- decades of jail time."

"EJC needs a mental hospital for the criminally insane. Her social media sounds like she stalked him in the past before being coerced to strike."

Criminal insanity for daring to hold their idol up to scrutiny.  

"He is going to absolutely destroy her when he becomes President. It won't be pretty, it will be under handed and quiet and I will laugh in her face the whole time."

Using his position for personal revenge about a legal decision by a jury.  Well, that is the sort of behavior we want from our President, yes sir.

"The corrupted leftwing judge Lewis Kaplan, was being a partisan misogynist and sexist douchbag against Alina Habba."

By making this ignorant, incompetent attorney follow the same rules every other attorney has to follow in court.  For these people, Trump doesn't have to follow any rules, and neither do his tools.

"The Leftist Judges are all in on destroying Trump. Obama is the top dog controlling Biden. He will soon off Biden and bring in Marshall Law just before the elections, watch!"

"Marshall Law."  

Boy, that's going to hurt.

"Gee. Another Amish judge from NY.  Small hat Amish"

Get what they mean by "small hat Amish?"  If not, maybe this remark will help you understand:

"Both the judge and plaintiff's attorney are named Kaplan."

We knew it would all come down to that in the end, huh?  

"Kaplan looks like he gets into midgets and farm animals"

And confronted with their own perverted leader, this is what they fall back on.

"I'm thinking like I saw some other commenter stated, (the jury) have to be getting a cut of it, along with probably the judge. I wouldn't doubt it with the total corruption being displayed by the puppet potato regime."

The jury is corrupt, the judge is corrupt, they are all corrupt, but Trump? Never, despite having been found to have engaged in criminal behavior during his entire adult life.  

"It's high treason, election interference, fraud, corruption, civil rights violations, judicial misconduct, conflicts of interest, campaign finance violations, etc.  That's quite a list."

And curiously, every one of those claims are things that Trump is actually guilty of.  

"I would recommend execution by firing squad. Lunatics like Lewis Kaplan have been set free to torture anyone who catches their fancy."

Yeah!  Kill the judge!

"Trump should immediately sue E. Jean Carrol for 500 million for deformation of Character, plus false accusations!-In TEXAS"

Go ahead...make my day.  Make E. Jean Carroll's day, and have her end up with every penny this bastard owns, and the two billion his corrupt son got from the Saudis too.

"You can be assured that every one in the jury was chosen specifically because they hate Trump."

It would be impossible to find 12 honest jurors in this country that didn't hate Trump, after what he has done to our government.

"You know, Trump didn't have to even go to a New York Court for this kangaroo trial. He could have just ignored the whole thing. What can they do? That's how Hunter does it. To Congress."

Um, excuse me, but Hunter showed up and offered to testify in public.  The Republicans wouldn't let him.

Anyway, enough.  This goes on and on, and shows pretty clearly why nothing that happens does a thing to cause these abominable anti-American monsters to change their minds about voting for Trump.  We have allowed the Republican party to deeply wound the political and cultural fabric of this country, and it is not clear that we will survive even as patently malignant a figure as Donald J. Trump.
