Now to get him locked up for all the other crimes he has committed.

We need to elect more women. They fight.

I'm sorry, although I'm not sure why I'd be apologizing so early in the game, but I'm about to spew my righteous anger here:

Of course it took a woman to take him down! We women are invested with the chromosomes that are instinctively protective, fighting til the last breath, to make sure our issue, our babies, live. Here it is literally our issue--to not be abused! Men and their precious little penises--that's all they want to protect. Look at all the Cialis and Viagra pills that are still being sold, while women are being put back into the cellar as sex slaves. Beautiful, young, helpless, pregnant. Yes, that's how they like them. Makes me sick. And obviously angry.

And all of Trump's fans--they'll never see him as that over-inflated baby in diapers as that incredible artist portrayed him. But he's looking more and more like life imitating the art. Or the artifice. The revenge tastes delicious--for now. We'd better be ready for the backlash, though.

OK, thanks for hearing me out. Now for the caveat: there are some great men around! My husband, for one, who cooks for me and our pooches, and Michael Moore, who is not afraid to speak the truth to all who will listen. Or maybe there is fear there, as I wouldn't know, but that it is overcome for the sake of us all, even those idiotic Trumpers who know not where they're being led.

Speak your truth even when your voice shakes. 👏🏻

Well said. Especially appreciate the call out to Merrick Garland, et al. Please excoriate CNN for giving this traitor and rapist DJT free air time. Urge a boycott if CNN doen't cancel it (Trump's objective case pronoun). Maybe their ratings will tank.

I vaguely remember the boldness, insightfulness, irreverence, cleverness, and warmth of E. Jean Carroll's Elle column. I do remember loving it. And I thank her for her courage and insistence now, in this crucial moment in our country. And thank you so much, Michael, for honoring E. Jean.

It's called accountability. I hope tRump continues to be held accountable for the crimes he has committed. Let's not forget that there was heroism by the judge and jury in simply discharging their constitutional duties.

Michael Moore is an American treasure. His rumbles provide me with insight and pleasure.

Thank you but realize she has the privilege and support others do not to go after their abuser. Or a person with his power that so many other women and men live with the trauma of abuse and rape do not have.

She is the first to bring him to justice. He will make millions off this for being a sexual predator, this is how broken and immoral his radical authoritarian following is, the more depraved, the more they salivate and drool over cruelty and abuse from him and the monsters like him.

Thanks, Mike. Right. SHE’s a star! I thank her. I’m glad she went to all this trouble. She’d already been through a lot, keeping quiet all those years. Her name will go down in history. I understand why she waited. But it takes a woman, right?

Now, I didn’t hear all that the jury heard, but I believe she was raped, too. I don’t know how the jury could separate it all out. Trump owes millions on this case alone. He’ll probably appeal--and lose again. That time, I hope he gets it even worse, if that’s possible.

He’s not my type.

I’m afraid he won’t pay anything or go to jail, but by rights he should. Maybe, if the bluebirds of justice align on the telephone wires, he will.

YES... and it's time.

DISGUSTING PIECE OF SH*T. He should have to register as a sex offender.
