As I believe I heard from a lawyer discussing the case, it became important to get into the salacious details because Trump has denied it happened. The jury needed to know in spades that it did happen and the details became significant in the proof.

Fern , we go way back. I read the beautiful book you wrote about your son Zack in 1982; I had just given birth to my daughter. I wanted to put my arms around you to give you and Joe a big hug. Yours was really the first book to frankly discuss the reality of having a profoundly disabled child. It was so honest, so heartbreakingly told by you, I felt my soul would explode.

I’ve gifted your book to many friends who were in similar positions and they all thanked me profusely ♥️.

Who would have thought that over 40 years later I would find you again.

I have a 5 year old granddaughter who is autistic and she is the light of all our lives. She’s like a Moonbeam, shining her love everywhere. Although Sawyer doesn’t have the physical disabilities that your son has, it’s still very challenging. However, thinking back at the sadness and fear when we received her diagnosis, it’s the joy I remember.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Love it that "Orange turd" and "Vonshitzinpants" are part of the official record.
