Former President Donald Trump made a whopping 37 posts about sexual assault accuser E. Jean Carroll within the space of just 20 minutes on Wednesday evening ahead of his defamation trial in New York.
In just 20 minutes, Trump published 37 posts about Carrol – an average of 1.85 posts per minute – attacking the former Elle magazine journalist and attempting to make her look bad.
The former president began his series of posts with a screen recording which showed Carroll had liked a Facebook post saying she “should be on The Apprentice.”
Trump continued with screenshots which showed Carroll had called herself a fan of The Apprentice, as well as other old posts intended to embarrass Carroll and minimize her accusations of sexual assault.
The majority of the old posts that Trump shared – some nearly fifteen years old – featured Carroll joking about sex and included, “Big Dick Energy: Obama’s got it,” “Everything interesting on Twitter is about sex,” and, “The best sex toy is your brain.”
Trump also shared quotes intended to make Carroll look like a kook, including quotes about her pet names, her cabin being called “The Mouse House,” and a quote about her “sexually harassing Roger Ailes.”
The former president went on to share several links to reports about the case in conservative media, including Breitbart News and the Washington Examiner, and clips of Carroll’s interview with CNN anchor Anderson Cooper, during which she said that she was “not thrown on the ground” during the alleged incident and that it was “not sexual.”
Trump concluded the binge with several of his own rants attacking Carroll and calling on prosecutors to “End this Witch Hunt now!”
“Until the filing of this ridiculous lawsuit against me, I knew nothing about this woman, never heard of her, never touched her, had nothing to do with her,” he wrote:
THIS IS A FALSE ACCUSATION FORCED INTO THE PUBLIC EYE BY DEMOCRAT OPERATIVES LIKE HER LAWYER, HER FUNDERS, AND OTHERS. LOOK AT HER MANY CRAZY TWEETS, THEY SAY IT ALL — Another HOAX, just like Russia, Russia, Russia. These people are “SICK.” Hopefully Judge Kaplan will see the light and do what is just and proper for America!
Trump concluded, “I’m heading back to New York City for a trial based on False Accusations from perhaps decades ago – The woman has no idea when!”
Last year, a jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll and awarded her $5 million after Carroll accused Trump of sexually assaulting her in the 1990s.
