All the news headlines and verdict said sexual abuse, which was kind of vague, but I just found out today that the judge clarified that this was a matter of legal definition and by the verdict of the trial and the case, trump has been found guilty of penetrative rape.

    Found guilty

    Technically not, and this is an important distinction because the level of evidence required for a civil case is less than that of a criminal case.

    He has been found civilly liable for something legally distinct from rape
