President Donald Trump said Friday that he feels “badly” for the seven men accused of gang-raping a young woman at Cornell University, as well as the Ivy League school, the local DA and university police after New York Gov. Kathy Hochul appointed state Attorney General Letitia James to investigate them all over the allegations and their handling.
James successfully prosecuted Trump on 34 counts of falsifying business records, a felony, in a case which ended months before Trump was re-elected in 2024. The president spoke to reporters before departing the White House for Mobile, Alabama and was asked by Fox News reporter Peter Doocy about the upstate New York case being handed to his nemesis.
"Well, Letitia James is a corrupt person. She’s totally corrupt and I can’t imagine it. I feel badly for whoever she’s looking at because they won’t get a fair shake,” said Trump.
The alleged rape case shocked Americans after it was publicly revealed in a new lawsuit filed by Jane Doe, the unnamed accuser, against the university over its handling of her 2024 gang rape complaint involving seven members of a fraternity, who, according to her suit and since-revealed text exchanges, discussed the incident in a larger group chat with other fraternity members. The 101-page civil complaint was filed Sept. 14 and alleges the assault occurred in October 2024 at Cornell’s Chi Phi fraternity house in Ithaca, New York.
The comments Friday afternoon were Trump’s second remarks about the Cornell situation, and his second without offering any empathy for the unnamed victim. The lawsuit alleges that she suffered shocking sexual abuse over the course of several hours at the fraternity house after what was initially a consensual encounter with two of the frat members while she was drunk.
It is very telling that the very few times he ever openly feels bad for other people are rapists. He has next to no empathy, but what empathy he does have, is reserved for rapisst like himself. It’s because he can relate to them.
It’s cold self interest, he’s cold blooded, has not empathy. His nemesis got appointed special prosecutor, that’s why he’s talking shit. He’s the most transparent asshole in the world.
Fake news.
He felt people were unfair to the Klan and Nazis that showed up to Charlottesville since most of the people (on that side) were very good people.
Rapist of women and kids feels bad for other rapists.
Notice how the fat orange child rapist didn’t ask about the person who was raped!! Now, I wonder why that is…??
In a follow up question trump asked, “Was she good looking? How old was she?”.
The fact that these pathetic assholes raped a woman as opposed to a child actually puts them ahead of the President of the United States.
Your country is FUCKED.

The sadness and depression I have over America becoming a a cesspool of evil and dishonor is unimaginable. A sweeping change from this current administration is the only cure.
An overt cesspool of evil and dishonour. They were barely hiding it before, but at least there was an attempt, however weak.
He said of one of the largest child sex traffickers in history “I wish her well”, so no one should be surprised.
I’m not surprised in the slightest. This is absolutely on brand for Trump. Anyone who thinks he’d react any other way is an idiot.
I’m sure he does.
Asshole should be in prison.
after what was initially a consensual encounter with two of the frat members while she was drunk
That doesn’t sound very consensual to me, but then I’m not a boomer or “men’s rights” activist.
He said he feels “badly”? badLY? Fat Chance .
What? It’s an adverb that’s completely proper.
“We asked a rapist what he thought about these rapes and what he said, will rape you.”
When is he gonna give them jobs?
Blow or hand? Or do you need to be called bubba for that to happen?
We have all known he’s a piece of shit. Kinda sucks how many us are too…
