It is probable that ABC’s Good Morning America host George Stephanopoulos genuinely feels he did nothing wrong in publicly assaulting rape victim Nancy Mace. His sleazy past portrays a politically obsessed hatchet-swinger without conscience.

Last Sunday, Stephanopoulos savaged Rep. Mace of South Carolina. Though her appearance had been proposed as an opportunity to share insights on 2024’s presidential contest, the devious GMA host opened the segment by attacking the victim of a teenage rape.

“You endorsed Donald Trump for president. Judges in two separate juries have found him liable for rape and for defaming a victim of that rape. How do you square your endorsement of Donald Trump with the testimony we just saw?”

With that, Stephanopoulos launched his ambush offensive. The miniature monster included numerous lies in that single paragraph. There were no juries in the Trump/E. Jean Carroll case. The former president was not found liable for rape, but rather “sexual abuse” — that’s a pivotal legal distinction.

During her retort, Mace insisted “I’m not going to sit here on your show and be asked a question meant to shame me about another potential rape victim.”

The GMA host purred that he had done no such thing, though all watching had just witnessed him doing precisely that.

The interview continued in that sorry vein, with Stephanopoulos attired in the gear of a partisan bully. He reiterated his Trump-found-guilty-of-rape lie numerous times, openly pursuing political interests and not journalistic ones.

“George Stephanopoulos tried to bully me and shame me as a rape survivor over my support for Donald Trump, which is insane to me, because he wasn’t found guilty of rape anywhere,” Mace subsequently told Fox’s Harris Faulkner, per The Hill

The ABC network apparently shares Stephanopoulos’s lack of conscience. The Hill article quotes an unnamed ABC spokesperson as praising the host’s foulness: “George did his job by asking meaningful questions that are relevant to our viewers.”

Democrats generally profess compassion for victims of sexual assault. That those claims are cynically opportunistic was made clear by their post-interview championing of Stephanopoulos and gang predations leveraged against Mace with despicable relish.
