But to many observers on social media, that’s exactly what the Fulton County district attorney was doing.

Writer E. Jean Carroll accused Trump of raping her in a Manhattan department store in a lawsuit, and a jury found him liable for sexual abuse. A judge this month rejected Trump’s defamation counterclaim, saying Carroll’s insistence in a post-verdict TV interview that Trump raped her was “substantially true.”

“Mr. Trump did in fact ’rape’ Ms. Carroll as that term commonly is used and understood in contacts outside of the New York Penal Law,” Judge Lewis Kaplan wrote in tossing Trump’s suit.

    Sometimes people who ask for sources just want more details. This looks like one of those times.

    Or you could provide a link so we could evaluate your sources and understand how you came to your conclusions. The issue is the "dO yeR own ResEArcH" crowd generally doesn't know how to research properly and they happened to find a random article that supports their point of view.

    What's the point of making claims of you don't intend on trying to make people believe them? Sometimes we want sources so we can have real numbers and details that we can reference.
