    Good… Within a span of 10s, he claimed he had no idea who E Jean carroll was, and then the next sentence said there was “instant attraction” publicly when defaming her, and then giving a story of them meeting. Plus, there were literally photos of them together lol

    Anyone who knows him, who is still defending him, is CLEARLY guilty (and is being blackmailed by trump to defend them getting paid a lot, or needs him to rise to presidency again so they can be pardoned)

    Lies have consequences. Anyone who Trump lies about should take notice, and take note of these lawyers’ names.

    Former President Donald Trump must pay writer E. Jean Carroll over $83 million in damages for repeatedly defaming her, a jury found Friday.

    Trump had already been found liable for defaming Carroll while he was president by mocking her allegation that he’d sexually abused her, so this jury was only tasked with determining how much she should be paid in damages.

    Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan asked the jury for at least $24 million in compensatory damages for the harm she suffered and “lots and lots of money” in punitive damages to stop him from continuing to defame her.

    Trump’s attorney Alina Habba contended that Carroll “had failed to show she is entitled to any damages at all” because she “actively sought the comments and the attention” she received.

    A different jury last year found Trump liable for sexually abusing her in a New York City department store in the 1990s and for defaming her by mocking her claims after he left the White House.

    U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan found Trump liable for defamation in the current case based on that jury’s findings.
