Jury awards E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million from Trump for 2019 defamatory statements
From CNN’s Lauren del Valle and Kara Scannell
Former President Donald Trump should pay $83.3 million to writer E. Jean Carroll for public statements he made in 2019 disparaging Carroll and denying her rape allegations, a Manhattan federal jury determined Friday.

The jury found Trump should pay Carroll compensatory damages of $18.3 million — $11 million to fund a reputational repair campaign and $7.3 million for the emotional harm caused by Trump’s 2019 public statements.

Trump should also pay $65 million in punitive damages for acting maliciously in making the statements about Carroll, the jury found.

The total is more than eight times what Carroll asked for in her initial lawsuit.

Unbelievable

[DefiantMassRINO]

Very believable.  The Orange spoiled rich brat can't keep his yap shut.

[kevindavis007]

I'm sure he can afford it

[LMAO]

I'm sure he can afford it

And if he can’t there’s a Republican legislator in Florida who actually believes the taxpayers of Florida should pay his legal fees

And if he can’t there’s a Republican legislator in Florida who actually believes the taxpayers of Florida should pay his legal fees

or maybe the GOP can pick up his legal bills.

[Wingnut]

The Orange boob has reportedly spent over 57 million of other peoples money on his various defenses.  Pretty soon he'll have to start a "Go Fund Me' page.

[American Girl]

E. Jean Carroll loved Trump until he decided to run for office, all his friends turned their backs on him, and she learned that she could make a lot of money by lying about him and then suing him for defamation after he denied those lies and called her a liar.

This award, combined with the NY fraud case will approach half a billion dollars.  The party does NOT have money to waste on Trump’s courtroom antics, and I suspect he will eventually lose every damned one of the criminal trials, because is a total moron of a defendant. 

[NavyCanDo]

Unbelievable amount, but not able to keep his pie hole shut has been his curse. And he still can't learn from it.

What did Ron White say.  he has the right....but not the ability.  Trump in a nutshell.  He's like an orange Baby Huey.

I think that Trump knows he’s probably not gonna win this election so he’s deciding to entertain his base instead

[kevindavis007]

I was thinking, with this whole Trump fiasco, maybe just maybe we should reexamine how useful Talk Radio is nowadays. I mean they are the ones who want Trump. They are the ones who pushed and still pushing Trump.


I'm talking about Beck, Levin, Hannity, Bongino, and others...


Personally I think it is time to kick them out.

I don't listen to any of their shows. You don't have to either.

That does seem to be an excessive amount stemming from an accusation but none of us know is true or not

However, Trump has over 25 accusations of some form of sexual impropriety over the last few decades. No one can tell for sure what really happened between Trump and these women, but are all these women lying and Trump is the gentleman?

[LMAO]

I don't listen to any of their shows

Same here.

[libertybele]

Exactly.

You're right, and I ain't saying otherwise.
But this may be a play.

Inept lawyering, allowing a ridiculous judgement, and stupendously absurd fine...
Ripe ground on appeal. Step away from the regimented liberal leaning local jurisdiction, and his appeal becomes a slam-dunk.
They gave him both barrels and he let em. It's so obviously unfair and absurd.

Or it is what it is, and he is that inept.

[mountaineer]

Ladies and Gentlemen. I give you, E Jean Carrol.  The mentally deranged sex addict who talks about her “rape fantasies”, paints the trees and rocks in her yard blue, and has a cat named Vagina, and a dog named Tits. You can’t make this up. This is Trumps accuser.
She's also accused a dozen or so other men of having raped her. Talk about fantasies!

15 Facts About E. Jean Carroll’s Allegations Against Trump the Media Don’t Want You to Know

E. Jean Carroll’s second defamation lawsuit closed on Friday as a New York jury determined that former President Donald Trump owes her $83.3 million for defaming her in 2019. However, what has continually fallen under the radar is the fact that there are serious concerns with the woman’s entire story. Yet, she was awarded tens of millions of dollars.

@ReadeAlexandra
I am appalled at the justice system and the elite predator class like Reid Hoffman’s hold over it. Americans better know this is gross injustice.
Meanwhile, I can’t even get an investigation into Joe Biden who raped me when I was his staffer in 1993.

Trump’s ineptitude is what led to a spectacularly poor result.  He and his team could not have played this worse if they tried.  Furthermore, it looks like the same clueless attorneys will handle the appeal in the 2nd circuit, which is primarily democrat.  If he continues to yap, he could face yet another lawsuit by the same plaintiff.

That's all right, but he's a con. It may be a long play.

Or not.

"I AM WOMAN,HERE ME BITCH AND WHINE!"

Gee,I wonder if she is going to lose at the appeal?

Not that it matters to anyone but her. To all her allies,it is nothing more than an excuse to go after "Rude Orange Rich Man" and keep him out of the WH.
