These people never had any shame, but at least the PR blowback, and potential (probably minor) legal punishment, was enough to deter them from attacking the victim again. Now they see the POTUS get away with raping, being "proven" innocence by someone bought and paid for, then suing the victim, so they know they can get away with it too.

But the arbitrator here is a retired female judge from Washington state (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beth_M._Andrus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beth_M._Andrus). And she was appointed by a progressive governor. She’s very likely to side with the “victim” in a case like this.
