Laughably arguing that the infamous 2005 Access Hollywood tape of the client bragging about sexual assault “does not share any unique characteristics to this case or demonstrate a modus operandi or pattern of misconduct,” disgraced former President Trump’s lawyers on Friday submitted a memo to a Manhattan court begging a judge to rule it inadmissible as evidence ahead of next month’s civil trial brought by a lawsuit from rape accuser EJ Carroll, the Daily Beast reports.
“Here, the actions described on the tape bear little resemblance to the actions that allegedly took place in or around 1995,” the lawyers wrote. Maybe what they’re trying to say is that Trump wasn’t a star yet in 1995 so Carroll wouldn’t let him do it, but things were different ten years later.
