I am amazed at how little evidence some people need to see in order to believe their biggest opponents are crooks. But when it comes to courts of law finding Trump liable for physical abuse and his company convicted of fraud, they make all the excuses in the book and blame everyone but him.
That's bias at its finest.
Take the recent case of E. Jean Carroll, who successfully sued Trump for defamation after he denied her allegations that he had sexually assaulted her in a department store dressing room. Carroll had no physical evidence to support her claims, but she was able to convince a jury that Trump had defamed her by calling her a liar.
Yet, many people still refuse to believe Carroll. They claim that she is making up the story or that she is misremembering what happened. They also point out that Trump has not been convicted of any crime, as if that somehow proves his innocence.
But the fact is, Trump has a long history of making false and misleading statements. He has been accused of sexual assault by multiple women, and he has been sued for fraud on numerous occasions.
In contrast, Carroll has no history of making false accusations. She is a respected journalist and author, and she has no reason to lie about this.
So why do so many people believe Trump over Carroll? It's simple: they are biased. They don't want to believe that Trump is a liar and a predator, so they make excuses for him.
This is the same bias that led many people to believe the lies about Barack Obama that were spread on Fox News and other conservative media outlets. These lies, such as the claim that Obama was not born in the United States, were repeatedly debunked, but they still persisted because people wanted to believe them.
The bottom line is that if you are going to believe a random guy on Tucker Carlson's show who claims to have done something with Barack Obama, yet not believe a woman who successfully sued Trump for defamation and assault in a court of law, then you are showing your bias.
It's time to wake up and start thinking for yourself. Stop believing everything you hear on Fox News and start demanding evidence. And if you find yourself believing someone who has a long history of lying and making false accusations, then take a step back and ask yourself why.
