“ Jurors decided in May 2023 that Trump had sexually assaulted Carroll and had defamed her by lying. They did not find that Trump raped Carroll, as she had claimed.“ Do most people here read English? The facts and the truth is never enough for many trump haters, they have to make it up and lose elections and credibility. Sad.

After Donald Trump was found liable for sexually abusing and defaming E. Jean Carroll, his legal team and his defenders lodged a frequent talking point.
Despite Carroll’s claims that Trump had raped her, they noted, the jury stopped short of saying he committed that particular offense. Instead, jurors opted for a second option: sexual abuse.
“This was a rape claim, this was a rape case all along, and the jury rejected that — made other findings,” his lawyer, Joe Tacopina, said outside the courthouse.
A judge has now clarified that this is basically a legal distinction without a real-world difference. He says that what the jury found Trump did was in fact rape, as commonly understood.
So yes, as commonly understood, Trump raped her.

For those who, "want help explaining why Trump won"...
There was only one demographic Trump actually won, uneducated, low-income men.
Trump lost college educated women 61% to 37%.
Trump lost non college educated women 53% to 45%.
Trump lost college educated men 49% to 48%.
Trump won non college educated men 61% to 37%. (MAGA)
Throughout history, tyrants have understood that their major enemy is an educated citizenry.
Slaveholders prohibited the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Putin and Xi censor books and the media.
Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny.
