Trump's Lawyers Move To Silence Accuser


Despite the charges of sexual abuse and harassment in nearly every sector of America becoming a daily event, our highest profile predator remains free and defiant. Sociopath and admitted genital-grabber Donald "Rump" Trump and his enablers have denied the accusations by 14 women that he sexually assaulted them over the past couple of decades.

One accuser, former The Apprentice contestant Summer Zervos, filed a defamation suit against Rump last January after Rump repeatedly denied he sexually harassed her while on his TV program. Now, that suit is being challenged in New York Civil Court by Rump's lawyers who assert that Rump can't be sued in State civil courts while President. If the judge dismisses the lawyers' contention, the case will move to the New York State Supreme Court. If the NYC case is decided in her favor, Zervos has asked for a jury trial and to receive unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

UPDATE: In the comments, commenter Jeff Ryan offers clarification of the process that the suit would follow in New York.
