$83.3 million reasons why?

[colddiesel]

Why perhaps MAGA folks should be a little cautious before they defame Ms Carroll, insult the Judge or wax too lyrical on the justice dealt to their idol. The actual award was pretty much in line with the plaintiffs suggestions, but $65 million in punitive damages was entirely at the Jury's discretion and aimed squarely at Trump's conduct on Social Media.

I note that his idiot lawyer promptly attacked the Judge outside of court. She laid herself open to a contempt charge, though Kaplan probably will not want to make her a martyr. He could force her to make a humiliating apology to the court - that would make a fun news headline. Interesting times.

A bit more than the prosecution was asking for ($24 million). Extra for the crazy antics, I guess. (MDBA--Make Donald Broke Again)

Such a joke. A woman who had no evidence, doesn’t remember when it allegedly happened - not even the year, talked on live TV about how rape was a fantasy, calls her cats vagina and tits and is a complete looney toon. That she was allowed to smear Trump who wasn’t allowed to produce any defense. Simply she said something happened at some point in the past and that was enough. There is no justice in America.

Kudos to the two women who kicked Trump's butt again.

This trial wasn't about the sexual assault. mcdonald rump was found liable for that already. This was about him constantly attacking someone and not knowing when to shut up. He's pretty fucking stupid if you ask me, not as stupid as the people who still support him, but still real stupid.

Didn’t she smear him with a bullshit lawsuit? Was he allowed to produce evidence and mount a defense? No he wasn’t.

He was allowed.

The court found that he defamed her.

He had a shitty lawyer.

He's stupid and he can't shut up... When she was awarded $3 million he should have learned and kept his mouth shut. But you can't fix stupid.

Reminds more of Ron White, "You Can't Fix Stupid!"

Part of the enjoyment of this is seeing how bitter Trump dummies like you can get about it.

At this point we don't know if you are interested just have to look over his incessant tweeting about her in the 2018-2020 time frame.. However, someone will write a book covering his comments about E. Jean Carroll soon enough.

What is important is that 7 men, and 2 women sat down and listened to the facts, listened to ever tweet Trump wrote, and ever remark he said. Then listen to Trump's lawyer present a defense, she did her best to persuade the jury Trump never said anything derogatory while Trump sat there making derogatory statements toward the judge. At the end of the day Alina Habba defense wasn't good enough and the 9 jurors reached a informed impartial decision that Trump did indeed defame Ms Carroll.

Many say Alina Habba was a shitty lawyer and while she isn't A tier she didn't have much to work with.. Regardless I believe 9 persons who had nothing to gain acted with integrity when they reached their decision and awarded E. Jean Carroll a large sum of money to punish Trump for his behavior.. In hopes of teaching Trump a lesson.. A lesson I'll bet he'll never learn..

I listened to television news today about that 83.3 million number. Some reporter who wrote a book about Trump's fleecing of America says Trump may not have the 400,000,000 in cash he claimed in the current trial case. Put the 83.3 with the 300+ million he may have to pay NY City for the business fraud case, and he could be in serious hot water.

Perhaps that's why he stormed out of the courtroom. News had it his lawyer was smart enough to get paid upfront before the trial - otherwise, she might be standing in line for payment like Rudi.

Her sidewalk barker tirade looked like she was pissed - still ranting about not getting evidence introduced on things not related to the case she just finished = inept lawyer. She needed instructions from the judge on how to introduce evidence. Then, she couldn't figure out what evidence was admissible in the case she had just lost. I hope she got into the right cab going home. Nothing could be worse than losing yourself in NY.

Trump doesn't have a dime in real money, his wealth is fake.

All of his properties were vastly over-valued for the purposes of securing bank loans, so are underwater. His bank account with Deutsche Direct in Moscow is unlikely to be subbed by Putin for ever, the Useful Idiot is fast becoming the Useless Idiot and his sons (who are too immature to stand up in court) are not succeeding in running the company.

Once his dumbass supporters stop sending those $5 donations to the funds that pays his lawyers, he's toast.

It's honestly shocking to me that the man isn't sued every day for all the shit that comes out of his mouth.

Miscarriage of justice, another activist judge steering the Jury for a desired outcome. It will be appealed and overturned. SAD

You get what you PAY for.

I love that so far it's consistently been women who have held Trump accountable for his big filthy misogynistic mouth.

When he gets locked up, a man will punch him in that big mouth for his other deplorable traits.

^^^ Yes, trump and lawyers delayed and missed deadlines and whatnot.

Activist judge = judge who tells defendant to quit saying defaming things against plaintiff in case about defamation. Got it.

Evidence that supported Trump's defense was not not allowed in court. 83 million is laughable and will be overturned in a court of appeal.
