Donald Trump, who boasted of 'grabbing women' by their genitals, has been found liable for sexual abuse and defamation of E. Jean Carroll, ordered to pay $5 Million. So tonight he gets an hour on CNN?
CNN is off my news list. Mercifully, Licht is gone, but there are still people at CNN who think what they did was right (e.g., Anderson Cooper). CNN is not totally bad & I don’t expect to agree with any of them 100% of the time, but I have more newsfeeds than I can cover in a day, so I won’t lose much. Besides, once a newsfeed loses my trust, see no reason to hang around.
@frankschaeffer ~ @2:30 you mention "pays off porn stars" but I would urge you & any person who cares about truth & decency to listen to one of Michael Cohens very early podcasts where he interviews Stormy Daniels. As a SURVIVOR of this patriarchy & all the abuse, sexual battery, & misogyny it enables, I can assure you it sounds far more a case of rape & deep denial than anything remotely close to a "consensual" encounter, but our CULTure even has the rape victim thinking she consented. Doing what one needs to do to SURVIVE is NOT CONSENT.
Shame on CNN for Giving Sexual Assaulter Trump a Platform.

You hit it dead on the nail.
Yes and Amen!
