Prof. Dershowitz on results of Trump defamation case: 1) Statute of limitations had long expired. 2) Jury found that evidence did not support rape. 3) Nevertheless, when Trump said the woman lied about rape, he defamed her.
This turns the idea of defamation on its head. Unproven accusation of rape is okay, but proclaiming your innocence is not. Bottom line: In deep blue area like NYC, nothing Trump could do is right, nothing his enemies could do is wrong.
