Funny thing. This is the full page of the verdict form. Seems he did sexually assault her according to the jury. I wonder why this person on youtube telling us all what "the MSM doesn't say", made it a point to just include that sentence and not the other sentences of what the jury said he did do? Might it be that he's trying to spin the narrative for his own needs?
And it has NOTHING to do with civil or criminal trials. It has to do with what constitutes rape in NY. Mind you, I say NY, because what the jury said he did, would be considered rape in some other states. In NY you need to penetrate with your dick. He just used his fingers. That's why Kaplan dismissed Trump's counter claim to Carrol saying he raped her. Because... and this is a judge talking. He did rape her if not in the NY legal sense, then for sure in the colloquial way.
Unless of course you want to hang your hat on the idea that forcing your finger into a woman's vagina against her will is in any way OK?
Trump's legal team did not call any witnesses during the trial, and Trump himself did not testify in court during the trial.

Carrol has 2 contemporaneous witnesses, 2 other people willing to testify under oath Trump assaulted them too, 2 people who worked at Bergdorf's confirming her descriptions of both the stores procedures and attendance... Plus of course Trump's own words. Trump provided.... NO DEFENSE whatsoever.
