jean carroll. and so the president's defense as stated is easily proven false with one photograph. a photograph that now appears in "new york magazine" ironically includes the president's first rape accuser, ivana trump as well as his newest rape accuser e. jean carroll. the other man in the photograph is e. jean carroll's then husband john johnson who many will recognize as former abc news anchor. e. jean carroll says he feetings revealing what donald trump did to her began to change when the "new york times" began its reports of powerfulpowerful men and raping women beginning with harvey weinstein. this is the most serious allegation of sexual violence against trump ever made. aside from the marital rape claim that ivana later walked back. before there was an msnbc news in this very spot on your list of cable channels there was a network owned by nbc called america's talking and e. jean carroll was that network's biggest star. her show called "ask e. jean" gave audience advice on that show especi

jean carroll did tell two friends. up her account so that makes her allegation stronger. >> it was rare then but now people know about it. so, listen, there is an episode of "law & order: svu" in burgdorf goodman very close to what she describes. you asked her about that. >> it's a very interesting coincidence. she said in this 2012 episode of "law & order" there is a description of an assault at a department store like this. i asked her about it. here's what she said. >> so what's your reaction? >> startled. i've always said there are like nine plots in the entire world, right? this is a huge coincidence. i generally know every "law & order" episode and and the "law & order: criminal intent." i never see "law & order: svu." this is a fantasy that many people have. i'm not surprised. it was enacted with me. i'm not surprised a man would be on this television show with that very thing. >> but you're saying it's a coincidence. >> total coincidence. >> that it showed up, the idea of something happening like this in a depa

jean carroll, a remarkable book about so much more than trump. trump is one of the many men that she talked about in this book. but of course the news is about trump. she's getting, i think, the right amount of attention today after a strange weekend where there wasn't enough media coverage devoted to her account, her allegation. and yet outlets at "the new york post," outlets that support president trump, they're keeping very, very quiet. >> i want to talk to you about something else. "the washington post" has a new piece out on fox news' jeanine pirro. it's called "the judge who speaks trump's language," and we're learning this new detail that she was blocked from a position in the administration. tell us about that. >> she was looking for a job in the justice department. she was in talks about a job and that she believes jeff sessions blocked her from it. that's the reporting from "the post," that sessions intervened to make sure that she didn't get a job in the doj. maybe it's a coincidence, but maybe not. she went on the war path against ses

jean carroll says this happened. in a dressing room a atd a new york clothing story steps away from trump tower. she writes about it in her book. >> i want to begin by asking you about the latest thing the president has said. just moments short time ago. he said i'll say it with great respect. she's not my time. number two, it never happened. it never happened, okay? >> i love that. i'm so glad i'm not his type. i'm so glad. this is this was 20 years ago. i probably was at that moment in that five minutes the most attractive woman in that one bit of time. >> that's what it was about for him? >> i don't know what it was about. we were having a high old time. you remember donald trump. walking up and down the streets of new york. greeting everybody. >> 1995. he was shakes spear. he was great. when we met in the department store and he said help me advise me to find a present. i was thrilled. i thought this is hilarious. >> the statement he said. she's not my type. that was the numb one thing. >> i love i'm not his type

jean carroll was this author and columnist.ald trump attacked her in the dressing room in berdorf in the '90s. trump did the has denied all of this. he said she's lying, he doesn't know her, and of course she's not my type. but now two of e. jean carroll's friends are coming forward and they are sharing their stories of hearing her account of what happened more than 20 years ago confirming that she shared this with them contemporaneously and sharing their reactions. here is one of her friends who is a well known author explaining how she reacted when e. jean carroll told her about this. >> and i said let's go to the police. no. come to my house. no, i want to go home. i'll take you to the police. no. it was 15 minutes of my life, it's over. don't ever tell anybody. >> so lisa was the friend who said this was rape. you need to go to the police and report it. but her other friend carol martin told e. jean carroll keep this to yourself he is too powerful. he will absolutely bury you. and ultimately that's what e. jean carroll did

jean carroll never did go to the police about this.o talked about this alleged incident all those years ago say they have never spoken about it since. >> more to come on that. we'll see you again at 11:00 eastern time tonight right after the debate. we'll be on from 11:00 to 1:00, full debate coverage with our entire team. i want to hand it over to chris for "cuomo primetime." >>> welcome to "prime time." we have new word tonight how the democratic front-runner plans to deflect inarrows coming his way. is joe biden going to be joe cool or jolten joe. and we have bernie sanders campaign cochair here to let us in on the plan for the first face-to-face dual. the current president is at the g-20 in japan. he is going to see vladimir putin. question, why is it none of our business what he tells the moskow meddler? trump's friend chris ruddy is in the far east with him. >>> and also with us tonight, does he have insight on the sit down? and once upon a time we felt differently about those who came here even if they didn't have a legal right

jean carroll.here's a photograph of you and her in the early 1980s. >> i have no idea who this woman is. this is a woman who's also accused other men of things, as you know. it is a totally false accusation. i think she was married, as i read, i have no idea who she is, but she was married to a -- actually nice guy, johnson, a newscaster. >> there's a photograph of her. >> standing with my coat on in a line, kbgive me a break, with m back to the camera. i have no idea who she is. who she did is terrible. what's going on. it's a total false accusation, and i don't know anything about her, and she's made this charge against others, and you know, people have to be careful because they're playing with very dangerous territory, and when they do that and it's happening more and more. when you look at what happened to justice kavanaugh and you look at what's happening to others, you can't do that for the sake of publicity. new york magazine is a failing magazine. it's ready to go out of business from what

for the first time, two women are going public to back up the jean carroll who has accused president trump of sexually assaulting her over two decades ago. let's get details from stephanie gosk. >> reporter: e. jean carroll says moments after she was sexually assaulted by donald trump in a new york en city departmt store in the mid '90s, she called her friend, fellow writer lisa burnbach. >> i remember her saying repeatedly, he pulled down my tights. >> burnbach, carroll, and their friend were interviewed by megan tui from t "new york times." burnbach recall ing the conversation which about what to do next. i said let's go to the police. no. come to my house. want to go home. i'll take you to the police. roll did not go to the police. days later she spoke with martin. >> i said don't tell anybody. i wouldn't tell anybody this. >> carroll says her ce friend was ced about her going public because donald trump was such a powerful man. last weekend the president denied the incident happened or even knowing carroll. >> i have no idea who this woman is. this is a woman who's also accused o

jean carroll. she says in the mid 1990s, mr.ced himself on her in a department store dressing room. >> a friend of carol's confirmed to nbc news that carol told her about the alleged attack the next day. >> trevor: for the 22n 22nd time, donald trump has been accused of sexual misconduct. almost one accusation for each democrat running. ( laughter ) i know that because he's president, there's added skepticismo to all these claims, but it is interesting how quickly people will brush these accusations off. sometimes people don't even listen. but 22 times is pretty high. you realize boeing had two planes go down and they were forced to ground the entire fleet because people were, like, maybe we should investigate what's going on here. people here are, like, it's all fake news. i'm not saying it's real or fake, but i think people should listen, and one thing that definitely hasn't helped trump's case is his response. >> an extraordinary denial from frump in the face of a rape allegation. according to the president, writer e. jean ca
