Trump Rape Accuser: ‘I Have Not Been Raped’
E. Jean Carroll can’t get out of her own way. I simply don’t know what to make of this:
E. Jean Carroll said she does not want to consider herself a victim and does not describe the incident with Donald Trump as a rape. https://t.co/9JrG9NSmVE pic.twitter.com/Plq0Jk3aIA

“Every woman gets to choose her word. Every woman gets to choose how she describes it. This is my way of saying it. This is my word. My word is ‘fight.’ My word is not the victim word. I have not been raped. Something has not been done to me. I fought.”
Okay, either it was rape or it wasn’t. I understand Carroll’s point that she doesn’t want to think of herself as a victim. But are we supposed to accept that she’s not claiming she was raped because she says she wasn’t, or are we supposed to assume she’s claiming she was raped anyway? Are we supposed to #BelieveWomen or not?
Here’s yet another bizarre twist. Trump’s defenders are now pointing to a 2012 episode of Law & Order: SVU that depicted a similar scenario:
No way! Trump’s clearly unhinged accuser claims he raped her in a Manhattan Bergdoff dressing room…..it’s literally the plot line to an old “Law and Order” episode. 🤦🏼♀️ pic.twitter.com/4J0eajQpIv
