E. Jean Carroll claims she was raped by former President Donald Trump in 1996 at Bergdorf Goodman department store.
The sales ladies at Bergdorf's have always been skilled and hyper-attentive, making it impossible for a large man to assault a customer in a dressing room.
The #MeToo movement has been a hot topic in the news lately, with many high-profile cases involving allegations of sexual assault and harassment. One such case is that of E. Jean Carroll, who claims she was raped by former President Donald Trump in 1996 at Bergdorf Goodman department store.
Despite this claim, it has been reported that the sales ladies at Bergdorf's have always been skilled and hyper-attentive, making it impossible for a large man to assault a customer in a dressing room. This raises questions about the credibility of Carroll's claims and whether or not she is being truthful.
The case has also sparked controversy over the fact that Trump is being sued for millions of dollars by E. Jean Carroll, despite his denial of her allegations. Some argue that this amounts to an attack on his reputation and a violation of his right to proclaim innocence.
As the trial continues, it will be interesting to see how the evidence presented in court supports or refutes Carroll's claims. It is important for all parties involved in this case to approach it with an open mind and a commitment to truth.
The credibility of Carroll's claims has been questioned due to the fact that the sales ladies at Bergdorf's have always been skilled and hyper-attentive, making it impossible for a large man to assault a customer in a dressing room.

The article contains several examples of deception. Firstly, the author states that they are not a fan of former President Donald Trump but then proceeds to defend him by arguing that he should be allowed to proclaim and maintain his innocence despite being sued for millions.

Secondly, the article contains a statement from Angela La Pick suggesting that Bergdorf Goodman should sue E Jean Carroll for dragging their name through this case of 'Trump derangement syndrome'. This is an example of deceptive language as it implies that Carroll's accusations are baseless and motivated by political bias, when in fact there is evidence to support her claims. Thirdly, the article contains a statement from Kevin Moriarty suggesting that Trump should sue Carroll for defamation of character. This is an example of deceptive language as it implies that Carroll's accusations are false and damaging to Trump's reputation, when in fact there is evidence to support her claims.

Fallacies
(75%)
The article contains several logical fallacies. The author commits an appeal to authority by stating that the Central Park Five were not innocent in their case without providing any evidence or citation for this claim. This is a violation of the principle of burden of proof and assumes that because something was on Netflix, it must be true. Additionally, the author uses inflammatory rhetoric when they describe Yusef Salaam's appointment as chair of the Public Safety Committee as an insult to law-abiding citizens and police officers. This is a form of ad hominem attack that does not address the merits of Salaam's qualifications for the position.

They express sympathy for Trump's situation and criticize the legal system for not allowing him to proclaim his innocence through financial sanctions. The author also suggests that Bergdorf Goodman should sue E Jean Carroll for dragging their name through this case of 'Trump derangement syndrome'. Additionally, the author calls on Trump to request a lie-detector test and criticizes the #MeToo movement for doxxing men accused of unwanted attention towards women. The author also expresses support for Yusef Salaam's appointment as chair of the Public Safety Committee despite his past conviction in the Central Park jogger rape case.
Despite evidence to the contrary, we are still force-fed the narrative that five upstanding lads were just out for an innocent walk in the park that day.

The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, it states that the tape will not be presented to New York jurors tasked with considering a defamation case against former President Donald Trump leveled by writer E. Jean Carroll. However, this statement is misleading because the article does not provide any context or explanation for why the tape will not be presented. It also implies that there are no other witnesses who will testify on behalf of Carroll, which is also false as two other women who accused Trump of abuse have been ruled out from testifying. Additionally, the article states that Kaplan wants to keep the trial focused solely on Carroll's accusations against Trump. However, this statement is misleading because it implies that there are no other allegations against Trump when in fact he has faced multiple legal hurdles ahead of the 2024 election including four indictments on charges stemming from Florida, New York City, Georgia and Washington D.C.
