Donald Trump will become the president of the USA for the second time. In the race for power, he defeated Kamala Harris with a majority of electoral votes, despite Harris having support from stars like Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Oprah Winfrey, and Julia Roberts.
Prominent figures who supported the former Vice President are utterly devastated. Among them is Lili Reinhart, known from the series "Riverdale." The actress has already spoken out on platform X, addressing women who have long described Trump as a sexual predator.
Lili Reinhart published an unequivocal post after the election
"I cannot fathom the feeling of the women who came forward about their sexual assault at the hands of Trump. Seeing millions of people vote for their abuser. My heart absolutely breaks for these women. I believe you, and I am so sorry," she wrote, causing quite a stir online. She later responded on InstaStories to the negative backlash over her post. "You can keep defending the CONVICTED rapist and call it fake news. I will always believe these women," she added.
Trump convicted in sexual assault case
Let's recall that over the years, 26 women have accused Donald Trump of inappropriate sexual behaviour. In May 2023, the politician was found guilty in a civil case filed by writer and columnist E. Jean Carroll.
The jury announced the verdict—sexual abuse and defamation. However, it dismissed the charge of rape. As a result of the lawsuit, Trump had to pay the woman five million dollars in damages.
