Trump has been blamed for everything from the Coronavirus (COVID-19) to Russian election hacking, to every U.S. mass shooting, and even for Kim Jong un's smile. [He must have given North Korea something for Kim to smile about.]
In her post, Carroll indicated that she doesn’t blame the magazine; she blames Trump, of course, the man she publicly accused of raping her as claimed in her recent book.

Carroll tweeted:
Because Trump ridiculed my reputation, laughed at my looks, & dragged me through the mud, after 26 years, ELLE fired me. I don’t blame Elle. It was the great honor of my life writing “Ask E. Jean.” I blame @realdonaldtrump.https://t.co/vYIVL6yDIpPersonally, I believe that her accusation of rape and Trump's attack over that accusation, would give ELLE a reason to not only keep her on and praise her "braveness," but to give her a substantial raise in pay.
Does anyone believe that Elle would go after her for going after Trump? They would give her a medal if they could.
In a statement to The New York Times, [a former newspaper], a spokesperson for Hearst Magazines, the parent-company responsible for publishing Elle, claimed that the circumstances surrounding Carroll’s departure were unrelated to her rape allegation against the president. BECAUSE THEY WERE!
“E. Jean Carroll was long a beloved voice in the pages of Elle, the decision not to renew her contract was a business decision and had nothing to do with politics,” said the spokesperson, reports the news agency.

They weren't defending Trump, they were telling the reason why they let her go.
While Hearst Magazines has publicly denied that national politics played a role in Carroll’s firing, the Times interviewed over a dozen of the publisher’s current and former employees, and was told that many of them believed/felt the advice columnist was terminated partly because of salary and internal politics but had zero evidence to support anything they said, much like the Times uses evidence to support what it says.
According to the Times, Ms. Carroll was paid over $5 per word, and was recently bumped down in a contract negotiation to 900-words per month, from 1800-words per month. The news agency also reports that some of the editors of the magazine were disappointed when Carroll decided to publish an excerpt from her upcoming book, “What Do We Need Men For? A Modest Proposal,” in New York Magazine.
On June 24, 2019, New York Magazine published an excerpt of the book, which alleged that Donald Trump met Carroll in the 1990s inside of a luxury department store. During the encounter, Trump and Carroll allegedly laughed about trying on clothing, but soon afterward, Carroll claims that Trump raped her inside of a dressing room of a high-end department store.

Carroll filed a defamation suit against Trump for calling her a liar and said [correctly] that she was simply trying to sell books, saying: “Shame on those who make up false stories of assault to get publicity for themselves, or sell a book, or carry out a political agenda – like Julie Swetnick who falsely accused Justice Brett Kavanaugh. False accusations diminish the severity of real assault. All should condemn false accusations and any actual assault in the strongest possible terms.”
Do you believe President Trump did what Carroll has accused him of doing? Feel free to comment.
