Former President Donald Trump was found liable for sexual assault and defamation and ordered to pay $5 million to author E. Jean Carroll, but a peculiar Facebook post by his accuser could aid his appeal.
On April 22, 2012, she posted on Facebook, “Two excellent television programs on Sunday Night! My God! What do YOU view?
The post was not particularly intriguing, except for the misspelling of “too,” until you read the comments and she reveals what show she is a “massive fan” of.
In the email, she stated, “I’m a MASSIVE Apprentice fan.”
As of the writing of this article, the Facebook thread is still active, and you can view her comments here.
It is possible that she will delete the thread or her remark, but it is also possible that she will not, as she has already been identified and Donald Trump Jr. tweeted a screenshot of the comment.
This seems like a perfectly normal thing to say given the accusations?!?
Unless, of course, the accusations were totally fabricated and made up recently as a political hit job. https://t.co/zolszTz7QI

Now legally we must state that it is possible to be a devotee of a show starring the person who allegedly raped you, and that this post alone does not prove she lied to the court and the media.
As a journalist, I would love to question her how she could be a fan of a show that features a man she claims has permanently traumatized her.
I’m skeptical, and judging by some of the remarks on her post, so were a number of others.
“Massive Apprentice Fan???? How are you a fan of the show who’s star is DJT? You know, the one you said (raped) you all those years ago??? I hope our amazing POTUS sues your ass for everything you have. You are a disgrace to women who are true victims of sexual assault. Who put you up to this???” one person said three years ago.
“Massive Apprentice Fan!!!! Let’s see if you will delete your post!!!” another said.
“Why are you a fan of a guy that supposedly raped you?” another incredulous person queried.
“A “MASSIVE” Apprentice fan???????? You slapped the faces of true rape victims, you fraud!!!” one woman said.
“A MASSIVE APPRENTICE FAN??? WHY WOULD YOU BE A FAN OF A SHOW OF A MAN YOU WOULD YEARS LATER ACCUSE OF RAPE? YOU ARE A FRAUD AND I DON’T KNOW HOW YOU CAN LIVE WITH YOURSELF. YOU ARE HURTING ALL TRUE SURVIVORS. I HOPE HE SUES YOU BACK AND WINS!” another person said.
“I’ve never been raped but I don’t know if I would like the TV show hosted by my rapist,” another person said.
“Perfectly normal to be a HUGE fan of the “rapist that ruined your life”, right E. Jean Carroll? You vile, lying, money grubbing, lunatic slag!” another said.
And although there was no indication in her comment or thread, we believe she may use that as an excuse. At the time, she had not publicly accused Trump of anything, so it is unclear who would have understood the sarcasm.
Following Tuesday’s verdict in a sexual assault and defamation lawsuit filed by author E. Jean Carroll, former President Donald Trump announced his intention to pursue additional legal action.
Trump told Fox News Digital that he intends to appeal the civil case, adding that he has “absolutely no idea” who she is and describing the federal verdict as a “disgrace” and “a continuation of the greatest political witch hunt in history.”
