Why have U.S. prosecutors and criminal courts refused to process rape cases against Trump?
Eric Zuesse (blogs at https://theduran.com/author/eric-zuesse/)
Wikipedia has a very good article, “Donald Trump sexual misconduct allegations”, and it summarizes and links to sources on at least 26 separate cases, only a few of which alleged rape.
Two of the alleged rape cases will be linked-to here, one of which was filed in 2016, but there is no evidence online that any action has yet been taken, at all, on any of the alleged rape cases against Trump.
Rape is a federal crime in America, where only 25 out of every 1,000 reported rape cases result in any conviction (in 2020, that was only 5 cases out of every 1,000, so the trend is in a good direction); therefore, a person is almost entirely free to do it; and, if the rapist is extremely wealthy (as Trump is), then, of course, he is virtually entirely free to do it (perhaps even less than a one-tenth of 1% likelihood of being convicted for it).
As a pro-Trump site points out, “Fact Check: Jane Doe V. Donald J. Trump And Jeffrey E. Epstein Lawsuit Filing Is NOT Proof Trump Is A Rapist”, and it states “The complaint, which was filed in federal court in Los Angeles, is not evidence of anything, according to Los Angeles lawyer Troy Slaten.” However: if no court has taken up these cases, then the reasonable assumption would be that our system of ‘justice’ fails, and that, moreover, people were threatened, and people were bribed, so as to produce this outcome in each such case. It is damning against our Government, regardless of whether it is likewise damning against Trump personally.
One of these two cases was this one in Wikipedia’s article “Donald Trump sexual misconduct allegations”:

Relationship with Jeffrey Epstein
A federal lawsuit filed in California in April 2016 against Trump and Jeffrey Epstein by a California woman alleged that the two men sexually assaulted her at a series of parties at Epstein's Manhattan residence in 1994, when she was 13 years old. The suit was dismissed by a federal judge in May 2016 because it did not raise valid claims under federal law. The woman filed another federal suit in New York in June 2016, but it was withdrawn three months later, apparently without being served on the defendants. A third federal suit was filed in New York in September 2016.[182][183]
The two latter suits included affidavits by an anonymous witness who attested to the accusations in the suits, asserting Epstein employed her to procure underage girls for him, and an anonymous person who declared the plaintiff had told him/her about the assaults at the time they occurred. The plaintiff, who had filed anonymously as Jane Doe, was scheduled to appear in a Los Angeles press conference six days before the 2016 election, but abruptly canceled the event; her lawyer Lisa Bloom asserted that the woman had received threats. The suit was dropped on November 4, 2016. Trump attorney Alan Garten denied the allegations, while Epstein declined to comment.[184][185][186]
Trump invited NBC News to film a party he threw for himself and Epstein at Mar-a-Lago, where they joined various NFL cheerleaders; the kiss incident occurred there. NBC News revealed footage of the party in July 2019, showing Trump, Epstein and the cheerleaders. At one point during the video, Trump grabbed a woman around her waist, pulled her against his body, and patted her buttocks. At another point, Trump appears to tell Epstein: "Look at her, back there ... She's hot."[187][188][189] A 2002 article in New York magazine quoted Trump talking about Epstein: "I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it, Jeffrey enjoys his social life."[190]

25 2. The venue is established as the Eastern Division of the United States Court Central District

…
8. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson [pseudonym], alleges she was enticed by promises of money and a modeling career to attend a series of underage sex parties held at the New York City residence of Defendant Jeffrey E. Epstein and attended by Defendant Donald J. Trump.
…
11. On the third occasion involving the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson [pseudonym] was forced to engage in an unnatural lesbian sex act with her fellow minor and sex slave, Maria Doe age 12, for the sexual enjoyment of Defendant Trump. After this sex act, both minors were forced to orally copulate Defendant Trump by placing their mouths simultaneously on his erect penis until he achieved sexual orgasm. After zipping up his pants, Defendant Trump physically pushed both minors away while angrily berating them for the "poor" quality of their sexual performance.
12. On the fourth and final sexual encounter with the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was tied to a bed by Defendant Trump who then proceeded to forcibly rape Plaintiff Johnson. During the course of this savage sexual attack, Plaintiff Johnson loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to "please wear a condom". Defendant Trump responded by violently striking Plaintiff Johnson in the face with his open hand and screaming that "he would do whatever he wanted" as he refused to wear protection. After achieving sexual orgasm, the Defendant, Donald J. Trump put his suit back on and when the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, in tears asked Defendant Trump what would happen if he had impregnated her, Defendant Trump grabbed his wallet and threw some money at her and screamed that she should use the money "to get a fucking abortion".
…
15. Shortly after this sexual assault by the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, on the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, Plaintiff Johnson was still present while the two Defendants were arguing over who would be the one to take Plaintiff Johnson's virginity. The Defendant, Donald J. Trump, was clearly heard referring to Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, as a "Jew Bastard" as he yelled at Defendant Epstein, that clearly, he, Defendant Trump, should be the lucky one to "pop the cherry" of Plaintiff Johnson.
16. The third and final sexual assault by the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, on the Plaintiff, Kati Johnson, took place after Plaintiff Johnson had been brutally and savagely raped by Defendant Trump. While receiving another full body massage from Plaintiff Johnson, while in the nude, Defendant Epstein became so enraged after finding out that Defendant Trump had been the one to take Plaintiff Johnson's virginity, that Defendant Epstein also violently raped Plaintiff Johnson. After forcing Plaintiff Johnson to disrobe into her bra and panties, while receiving a massage from the Plaintiff, Defendant Epstein attempted to enter Plaintiff Johnson's anal cavity with his erect penis while trying to restrain her. Plaintiff Johnson attempted to push Defendant Epstein away, at which time Defendant Epstein attempted to enter Plaintiff Johnson's vagina with his erect penis. This attempt to brutally sodomize and rape Plaintiff Johnson by Defendant Epstein was finally repelled by Plaintiff Johnson but not before Defendant Epstein was able to achieve sexual orgasm. After perversely sodomizing and raping the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, attempted to strike her about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at Plaintiff Johnson that he, Defendant Epstein, should have been the one who "took her cherry, not Mr. Trump", before she finally managed to break away from Defendant Epstein.
17. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was fully warned on more than one occasion by both
Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, that were she ever to reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse that she had suffered as a sex slave for Defendant Trump and Defendant Epstein, that Plaintiff Johnson and her family would be in mortal danger. Plaintiff Johnson was warned that this would mean certain death for herself and Plaintiff Johnson's family unless she remained silent forever on the exact details of the depraved and perverted sexual and physical abuse she had been forced to endure from the Defendants.
Also associated with this case was a “DECLARATION IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST FOR A PROTECTIVE ORDER” against Trump. (Maybe she feared that if he were to become President, he or Epstein would fulfill on their threat to kill her if she went public about the matter.)
The full case was later filed on 3 October 2016 in the U.S. District Court Southern District of New York, as, “Tiffany Doe V Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, US Dist CT, Southern Dist of NY, Case No. 1-16-Cv-07673-UA”. Then, just a month later, “The suit was dropped on November 4, 2016. Trump attorney Alan Garten denied the allegations, while Epstein declined to comment.[184][185][186]”
Then, there was this on 30 June 2017:

“Why The New Child Rape Case Filed Against Donald Trump Should Not Be Ignored”
No outsider can say whether Mr. Trump is innocent or guilty of these new rape charges. But we can look at his record, analyze the court filings here, and make a determination as to credibility - whether the allegations are believable enough for us to take them seriously and investigate them, keeping in mind his denial and reporting new facts as they develop.

The other case to be mentioned here is from the Wikipedia article:
Ivana Trump (1989)
Ivana Trump and Donald Trump married in 1977.[20] Ivana stated in a deposition taken in 1990, during their divorce proceedings, that Donald had visited her plastic surgeon following which he had expressed anger and ripped out hair from her scalp.[20] Donald said the allegation was "obviously false".[31] The book “Lost Tycoon: The Many Lives of Donald Trump” (1993), by Harry Hurt III, described the alleged attack as a "violent assault" during which Donald attacked Ivana sexually.[31] According to the book, Ivana later confided to some of her friends that Donald had raped her.[31] In a statement given just before the publication of Hurt's book, and included in the book, Ivana said:
“[O]n one occasion during 1989, Mr. Trump and I had marital relations in which he behaved very differently toward me than he had during our marriage. As a woman, I felt violated, as the love and tenderness, which he normally exhibited towards me, was absent. I referred to this as a ‘rape’, but I do not want my words to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense.[31]"
The Trumps' divorce was granted in December 1990[32] on grounds that Donald's treatment of Ivana, including his affair with Marla Maples, was "cruel and inhuman".[33] According to Donald Trump's lawyer, Jay Goldberg, this was based on Trump's having been seen in public with Marla Maples in 1990.[32] Their settlement[b] had a confidentiality clause preventing Ivana from discussing the marriage or the divorce.[20][36] In 1992, Trump sued Ivana for not honoring a gag clause in their divorce agreement by disclosing facts about him in her best-selling book, and Trump won a gag order.[37][38][39]
Years later, Ivana said she and Donald "are the best of friends".[20] In a July 2015 campaign endorsement, Ivana said: "I have recently read some comments attributed to me from nearly 30 years ago at a time of very high tension during my divorce from Donald. The story is totally without merit."[40]

On 16 January 2023, Forbes headlined “Ivana Trump Left Behind $34 Million. Here’s What Is In Her Will.” Forbes estimated then that Donald’s net worth was $3.2 billion. If his fortune is that large, then even if he has spent $50 million to buy people’s silence on spectific matters, that would be only one sixty-fourth, or 1.6%, of his wealth.
The evidence is clear that only the super-rich control America’s Government; the public don’t. It’s an aristocracy. And every aristocracy is corrupt. That’s how aristocrats in any country rule — by means of corruption.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.
