E. Jean Carroll who is trying to sell her new book by charging that Donald Trump raped her in a dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman in New York some 25 years ago tells a rather unbelievable story. I've discussed that previously in prior posts. Now, however, Carroll has thrown away whatever little bit of credibility she might have had. She went on CNN and was asked if she would bring rape charges against the President. Her answer was NO. Then Carroll was asked why. In response Carroll said that it would be "disrespectful" to the women who were being raped "around the clock" at the detention centers at the border. No, really, that is what she said.
Think about it. Carroll is claiming that ICE or the Border Patrol are busy raping the women in the detention centers or else standing by while other detainees are systematically raping these women. That's not just a lie; it's a damnable lie. There is no evidence of any problem with rape in these detention centers. Indeed, you can be sure that if there were such a problem, the "immigrant rights" organizations or the Democrats in Congress would be screaming about the inhumane treatment of these poor women. It hasn't happened. Further, there have been countless investigations and visits to these centers, and no one claims that there is a rape problem for the women there.
But it is actually worse. How can it be disrespectful to other women for a woman who was raped to seek justice for that act? That's the rough equivalent of someone saying that a murderer who is part of the MS-13 gang shouldn't be prosecuted for that crime because it would be disrespectful to others who are being murdered by other gang members. The only rational response is "Huh?"
E Jean Carroll seems like a crazy old woman with a fragile grasp on reality. Her story is just fiction designed to sell her book.
