    • Abstract:
      The author comments on the denial by former U.S. President Donald Trump of the rape incident involving author and journalist E. Jean Carroll. He describes Trump as a nihilist, wanting everyone to believe that nothing happened between him and Carroll in the mid-1990s. He cites the statements by Trump to release him from the issue, including not knowing nor seen her before but mistook her for his second wife. He states that such strategy of Trump in the courtroom is a failure.
