How long will it take


Recommended Posts

How well will the decision hold up in appeal?   If she can't remember the year she says this assault happened, I'm not inclined to think her chances are great.    She got by this time, an appellate court might actually look at the thing. 

If I was a judge and someone came to me with a lawsuit saying Trump assaulted her, I would ask, when did this happen.   If the answer is I'm unclear on when it happened but by golly it did happen, I would throw it out as frivolous or something. 

If you are assaulted, you would know what year it happened.   Period.

This was the defamation suit, not the assault suit. It can be so hard to keep Trump's legal actions straight.

It is a shame that there isn't some sort of time limit that you can bring up these types  of lawsuits. Maybe give the victim 2 weeks . This way the police could actually investigate and do their job. Was this like 25 years ago.

It’s been in front of judges a whole, whole lot. Honest question, at what point do you stop and think, maybe the judges in the cases have better information about the whole case than the information I get from media? 
 

Also at what point to you stop and realize, I in fact do not know how every person on the planet’s mind works in response to a traumatic event. 
 

Honest questions not meant for argument.

It’s nice to see you have such a big heart for the victims of sexual assault. To be so kind to give them a whole two weeks. I mean, that’s an ENTIRE pay period for some people.

True.  We may not know much about the case other than she can't remember when it happened and that is the root of both cases.

Or….maybe that’s all we want to remember if it fits what we want. 
 

I guess if you were interested enough, you could look up the public records to find out why judgement after judgement has went against him.  The ‘we may not know’ part is exclusive to those who don’t want to know.
 

Or, you can stick with what you like hearing from the media. That is much easier after all.

Why didn't she report it the day it happened if it really  happened? You have Clarence Thomas who  had a high tech lynching. You have Brett Kavanaugh accused of rape and the women could not remember where it happened. These things get old.

Perhaps read up on the effects of sexual assault to understand why two weeks is unrealistic, never mind the same day.

Just seems a little opportunistic to me. I guess I raised my 4 daughters a little differently. I have 9 granddaughters and all of them will know exactly what to do.

Imagine bringing your daughters and granddaughters into this, and then acting as if having them makes you any kind of enlightened authority whatsoever on how someone you don’t know at all would or should respond to a traumatic experience

I can’t provide anything as to why she responded how or when she did.  I am not her; nor have you ever been sexually assaulted.  Even if I have been; my response would have no relative connection to what someone else’s response would be.  Nor would I think I was in any position to say what their response should be.

I'm sorry I just don't agree with you. I will let it go at that.

A phrase we use in my line of work:

“Everyone wants to be a gangster until it’s time to do gangster shit.”

No one knows how they will react in a horrible situation until it happens.
