  • Trump speaking publicly after being found liable for sexual abuse: What does it mean for his chances in the White House?
    Donald Trump's career has been marked by controversy and the recent judgment against him in a New York court adds another low point. The question on everyone's mind is whether this will damage his chances of regaining the White House in the next election. Despite a woman writer claiming that a civil trial found Trump guilty of sexual abuse in 1996 (though not of rape), there are many who believe it will have no impact on his political career. The woman had kept the secret for almost three decades, and she expressed immense joy after the trial. E. Jean Carroll, accompanied by her lawyer, spoke about feeling vindicated and asserted that this verdict is not just for her but for all women.
    The verdict held Trump liable for sexual assault, making him the first US president to face such a judgment. While the $5 million awarded to Carroll is a significant outcome, it has also given hope to Trump's political opponents who hope to derail his bid for presidency. Trump, on the other hand, dismissed his accuser and the jury's decision, calling it yet another scam and a political witch hunt. He expressed his determination to fight these allegations and prevent the country from descending into chaos. The Trump campaign wasted no time in launching a new TV ad to distract and deflect attention.
