As you assess this week's damage, remember that just Tuesday Bill Barr turned "E. Jean Carroll vs. Donald Trump" into "E. Jean Carroll vs. the United States of America" & thus made the whole of our former liberal democracy coextensive w/Donald Trump.

Column: William Barr is trying to make Trump's misogyny officially 'presidential'

E. Jean Carroll's defamation suit against the president has been bigfooted by the Justice Department, making the U.S., not Trump, the defendant.

+ @ejeancarroll , once again, thank you.
Someone could at least have soothed Barr's panic by telling him that if the DNA matches & Trump is a known rapist found guilty of defamation, the news might break in October but it wouldn't be a surprise.

An October Non-Surprise.
The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA did not rape and defame E. Jean Carroll. Nor is it even accused of doing so.
