E. Jean Carroll accuses Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her in the mid-1990s

Each and every survivor of this horror must come forward, be believed and this excretion prosecuted and punished to the full extent of the law.
The press are choosing to run this story now.
Is it helpful to ask cui bono?
Throughout the 2016 campaign such accusations proved very useful to the Republican cause.
Trumpistas need to know he’s a monster.
Extra points if the victim is a known undesirable, a Democrat, or a liberal or a feminist.
In this context “why now” is a valid question.
A cynic would expect another victim to be “found” each time the press fear everyone is becoming bored with the last one.
And each time it will have the desired effect, the howls or liberal outrage cleaving more deplorables to the Republican fasces.
