Question for Ramrouser, with your decades of legal experience. How does a random woman from New York, by filing a civil lawsuit against Citizen Trump, cause the entire justice system to be politically "weaponized"? At what point do we as lawyers stop trusting the integrity of the judicial system? I don't think such a point exists, so I'm hoping you can help us understand when you concluded the judicial system was hopelessly biased against Trump. TIA!
A federal appeals court upheld the jury’s verdict finding Donald Trump
sexually abused writer E. Jean Carroll and denied his request for a new trial.
Trump challenged the $5 million civil verdict alleging the trial judge made numerous errors, including allowing testimony of two other women who claimed Trump sexually assaulted them.
The appeals court concluded the trial judge didn’t abuse his discretion in ruling on evidence. Even if he made any errors, they said, given the strength of Carroll’s case, they are not persuaded Trump’s rights were affected to warrant a new trial.

Steven Cheung – Trump’s top spokesman and incoming White House communications director – said more appeals are coming.
“The American People have re-elected President Trump with an overwhelming mandate, and they demand
an immediate end to the political weaponization of our justice system and a swift dismissal of all of the Witch Hunts, including the Democrat-funded Carroll Hoax, which will continue to be appealed. We look forward to uniting our country in the new administration as President Trump makes America great again,” Cheung said.
