E. Jean Carroll might sue Donald Trump a third time
E. Jean Carroll might sue Donald Trump a third time
The former president has continued to criticize the journalist in public statements.
An attorney representing E. Jean Carroll has indicated the journalist could sue Donald Trump for a third time, as the former president continues to speak about her client publicly.
Speaking on MSNBC's Inside With Jen Psaki on Monday night, Shawn Crowley, an attorney for Carroll, responded to the frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination telling supporters at a Michigan rally on Saturday that he had not done anything wrong to Carroll, whom he claimed he did not know, and that lawsuits against him were "unfair."
In January, a New York City jury ordered that the former president must pay $83.3 million in damages to the former Elle columnist, for statements made in 2019. He said she was lying about allegations that he sexually assaulted her inside a Manhattan department store dressing room in the 1990s. That amount includes $7.3 million in compensatory damages, $11 million for reputational repair, and $65 million in punitive damages. He has repeatedly denied all wrongdoing and has said he will appeal the verdict.
Trump was previously ordered to pay Carroll $5 million in damages in May in another civil defamation trial stemming from a denial he made about her claims in 2022. He is appealing that decision and has set aside $5.55 million with the Manhattan Court as part of that process. Newsweek contacted a representative for Trump by email to comment on this story.
Carroll found an IRL infinite money glitch
He doesn't have any money to pay her
Every appeal ends up putting actual money in escrow. He doesn't have enough money to actually appeal this last decision + the new York fraud decision.
Doesn't matter. Still sue.
That's amazing. Do it.
I want her to drag him to court over and over. It will be, as Trump likes to say, "a beautiful thing, folks. A beautiful thing."
So much winning!
People are saying, it's a beautiful thing.
While I applaud her for her bravery, I also worry because of what his lunatic supporters have been known to do to their perceived "enemy."
Remember, they think he's literally the second coming of Christ.
She literally doesnt care. The juice is worth the squeeze.
They thought the same about Hitler and an entire generation of Germans and Austrians lived the remainder of their lives in silent shame when it all fell apart.
One big difference I think.
Nazi Germany lost in outright combat against an enemy they had always said they could beat. They were decimated and many of their sycophants were killed in battle.
Unless Trump and his followers start an actual armed rebellion and get put down, I don't see how they end up ashamed.
Beating Trump in court, while it needs to be done, allows all of his followers to keep saying, "See? We told you the deep state was out to get him."
If maga-country is paying for it, might as well get that money again and again.
Hey, most of us are also trying to grift MAGA folks.
We can't let Trump have it all.
I saw an instagram profile that “specializes” in Trump related AI art, and is run by a German teenager. It looked like there were paid features Trump fans could sign up for, and a lot of them were eating it up in the comments.
The account owner has just a couple pics of himself posted in a suit, and one brief explanation + a few short comments on why he loves Trump, and how he came to being a huge Trump fan. Which are all very vague/surface level reasons and come across about as genuine as the more lazy sponsored videos on YouTube.
I’m convinced this is what he’s doing lol. Also a little impressed tbh
So he's actually on her side grifting his own people for her gain.
It was 5D chess all along.
Going for the hat trick? I like your style.
At what point is trump just doing what he wants and not paying? Can he go to debtors prison or something?
New York will seize & start auctioning off his properties. He can't even appeal without putting the damages fine in escrow.
I read yesterday that Trump only has ~$550M in liquid assets & $50M of that he can't touch without it automatically recalling a loan that he currently cannot pay.
I'd like to point out the last part is no one's problem but Trump's & whatever bank gave him that loan.
Its like a gift that keeps on giving!
Except he never pays
Don't forget to bring an extra set of forms to file on the way out, when he does it again in this next trial!
As long as there’s evidence and damages cover the attorney fees she can keep this going.
President Loser continuing his losing streak.
lol sure that bitch into the ground
Bitch-Tits needs to shut. His. Mouth.
I'm cool with .73 cents out of each dollar he gets donated going to others, I'd like him to talk more so he goes bankrupt before the July estimate 👍
That works for me, too. If it MUST talk, drain it of resources and money until it withers up and blows away.
The Trifecta!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
An attorney representing E. Jean Carroll has indicated the journalist could sue Donald Trump for a third time, as the former president continues to speak about her client publicly.
Speaking on MSNBC's Inside With Jen Psaki on Monday night, Shawn Crowley, an attorney for Carroll, responded to the frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination telling supporters at a Michigan rally on Saturday that he had not done anything wrong to Carroll, whom he claimed he did not know, and that lawsuits against him were "unfair."
In January, a New York City jury ordered that the former president must pay $83.3 million in damages to the former Elle columnist, for statements made in 2019.
Trump was previously ordered to pay Carroll $5 million in damages in May in another civil defamation trial stemming from a denial he made about her claims in 2022.
"We had really hoped that, as the jury found, that $83 million dollars would maybe be enough to convince him to keep E. Jean Carroll's name out of his mouth, apparently he showed us this weekend that he really cannot control himself and that maybe it wasn't but we will see what happens as this continues to play out."
However, attorney Bradley Moss wrote that Trump was "close, but he didn't cross the line" in his remarks.
