Trump is liable for battery and defamation

[Ike Bana]

Carroll awarded $5 million. Trump assaulted and defamed E. Jean Carroll. I've been waiting over thirty years for this.

There was an attorney on FOX this afternoon who pointed out that if Trump hadn't made defamatory statements about Carroll, this case could not have gone ahead on accusations of assault only. The fucking megalomaniac did this to himself. First in the defamation, then in his brainfucked deposition.

Rhetorical question bob?

Just a reminder of how wingnut media covered this a few years back:


New York — The New York Post’s former top editor, a supporter of President Trump and an old lieutenant of Rupert Murdoch who returned to the conservative tabloid as an adviser in early 2019, ordered the removal of a story about writer Jean Carroll’s sexual assault allegations against President Trump, two people familiar with the matter told CNN Business.

The Post’s story about Carroll’s sexual assault allegations was mysteriously scrubbed from the tabloid’s website on Friday afternoon.

Shouldn't the wingnuts be going all "Hunter Biden's laptop" over this?

In those two Truth Social posts, Trump said the case was “a made up SCAM,” called her lawyer “a political operative, financed by a big political donor.” He also wrote “Does anybody believe that I would take a then almost 60 year old woman that I didn’t know, from the front door of a very crowded department store, (with me being very well known, to put it mildly!), into a tiny dressing room, and …. her.”

The jury said they determined Trump knew his statement about the lawsuit being a hoax was false, and thus defamatory under New York’s stringent standard of “actual malice.” As reported by The New York Times, Medill School of Journalism professor Ashlee Humphreys testified on behalf of Carroll during the trial that it would cost Carroll $2.7 million to repair reputational damage caused by Trump.

Jury rounded this off to $3Million and yes, its his big mouth and braggadocio which cost him the $3M. Of course it going to be appealed and hope the number does not get busted down. Will be in NYC and they hate him there.

The cult will be erecting Trump statues, shrines and maybe even a religion.
