Jury orders Trump to pay $83.3 million for defaming E. Jean Carroll
The Hill ^ | 01/26/2024 | ZACH SCHONFELD

NEW YORK — A federal jury ordered former President Trump to pay $83.3 million for defaming E. Jean Carroll when Trump in 2019 denied the longtime advice columnist’s accusation that he sexually assaulted her decades earlier.

It marks the second time Carroll has won damages from Trump at trial, with the new total adding to a $5 million verdict last year finding Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll and defaming her over a separate comment.

Carroll’s latest trial became intertwined with the heat of the early primary contests, beginning the day after Trump’s historic win in the Iowa caucuses and proceeding past the New Hampshire primary, when Trump further cemented his status as the indisputable Republican front-runner.

I thought the quote was “They’re after you, I’m just in the way.”

For the first trial, the judge merely declared Trump guilty. He would not allow Trump to defend himself against the rape charge.

This whole thing will be dismissed at some higher level.

Why didn’t the judge in the E Jean Carroll trial not want these tweets by Carroll shown in court https://twitter.com/CitizenFreePres/status/1750919655932453367

https://twitter.com/therealZNO/status/1750602415521276181 Let’s not forget how E. Jean Carroll, Trump’s rape accuser, coincidentally accused Trump of rape in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room after a similar episode aired on Law and Order SVU. RIGHT OUT OF LAW and ORDER!

The rallying cry of the left who for years told us that Trump lied about his wealth and was really poor: “Let’s steal away all of his millions!”

He’s already had to post $5.5 million in order to appeal the original verdict, I’d imagine that he’ll have to do it again. He would only have to pay a small percentage of the amount if he could get someone else to post a bond for the rest, but I don’t think he’ll find someone willing to do that. If he loses his appeals, the full amount will be right there for her to take.

These Democrat judges are appalling.

Judge Kaplan refuses to allow the Anderson Cooper Interview on CNN of E. Jean Carroll wherein Carroll says, “Rape is sexy,” and numerous other things that totally exonerate me. Judge Kaplan is refusing me my Constitutional Right to Due Process, to defend myself against this False Accusation. This is a one-sided trial, where the other side is allowed everything, and we are allowed nothing. He is an extremely abusive individual, the likes of which few have seen before!

His lawyers will appeal. She’ll end up with a few million and will never be heard from again.

This country’s justice system is TRASH!
———
Of course, just another nail in the coffin. Most can now see what has happened to our “ Justice “ system, loss of confidence in our Justice system has consequences, the most grave is Revolution…are we there yet?

As one who studies history, I can see it happening…..the hallmarks are becoming apparent, corrupted government, extreme division, unpayable debt, increased taxation, …… tic toc, tic toc….

Hey Jean, you better pray for a 2nd life cuz you ain’t getting any of this money in this one.

If I were the judge in this case I would reduce the award to $100.00 if not eliminate it entirely.

Conservatives should boycott NYC.

Conservatives couldn't even boycott Amazon, Facebook, or the mainstream media in meaningful numbers, even as they were lying about Trump and us and instigating violence against us.

By now the left has figured out that the we're paper tigers who will allow our lying government to lead us into bombing anyone they choose, but won't do anything about our domestic enemies.

Prove me wrong. Please.
