SCORE: Judge allows Trump's Access Hollywood tape as evidence in Carroll defamation case

Women are going to be the end of Donald Trump, which will only add to the global celebrations of every Women’s History Month from now on.

It’s something I’ve been saying ever since he got away with his “grab ’em by the pussy” comments on the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape in 2016.

You know, because when you’re famous, they let you do it.

However, plenty of women have come forward since then to tell the truth about Trump’s tiny hands (and his even tinier other parts) personally violating the sanctity of their bodily autonomy.

There are also the two Black women Trump fears more than any other people on this planet: New York State Attorney General Letitia James and Fulton Country District Attorney Fani Willis, both of whom could indict him right now.

Stormy Daniels deserves sainthood for surviving that Trump trauma

While we’re still waiting for those “imminent” charges, Trump got double-grabbed back this week by the two most famous women he chose to mess with: Stormy Daniels and E. Jean Carroll.

First, Trump was “asked” to testify (because why send a subpoena?) in New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s grand jury investigation into whether an “alleged” hush money payment of $130,000 to Daniels was marked as a “legal expense” during Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.

You might recall that Trump’s former lawyer/fixer Michael Cohen was disbarred, sentenced to three years in prison, and fined $50,000 for paying Daniels the $130K in hush money as directed by TFG to keep it out of the news before the 2016 election.

It’s unlikely that Trump’s legal team will respond in the affirmative to Bragg, as letting their client speak for himself is always a bad idea.

We’ll keep awaiting that subpoena, Mr. Bragg.

Meanwhile, in the very same borough of Manhattan, Judge Lewis Kaplan just brought more tsuris to Soggy Bottom by allowing the aforementioned “Access Hollywood” tape to be used as evidence in the defamation case brought against Trump by writer E. Jean Carroll.

Judge Kaplan writes that while Trump doesn’t speak about Carroll specifically on the tape, his comments regarding his past behavior of grabbing women’s genitalia without their consent are consistent with other evidence in her defamation suit.
