E. Jean Carroll called Trump a walrus and said in an interview with Rachel Maddow that he is nothing and nothing America needs to be afraid of.
What did E. Jean Carroll say about Donald Trump?
Carroll said: “It was a ghost. It was the people around him who gave him power. He himself was nothing. It was a surprising discovery for me. It’s nothing. We don’t have to be afraid of him. He can be knocked down.

Carroll described what he saw when he looked at Trump: “He’s not even there. It’s nothing. He is without: he is like a walrus, he snorts and waves his hands like a rhinoceros. He’s not here.”

Carroll’s comments are particularly damning for Trump
Trump is selling the image of a strongman, but when he was taken to court and treated like any other citizen, he was exposed as nothing. A noisy animal that snorts and bellows and flails, but it’s nothing. He is a fake, a pretender. As Carroll said, he is a person who is only strong because the people around him empower him and make him strong.
E. Jean Carroll revealed Donald Trump’s darkest secret.
He is nothing.
