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’m pretty sure Trump will receive that much extra for campaign funds, and also she won’t see anything.
Infamous words of the past.
That’s less than what Alex Jones was ordered to pay to the Sandy Hook families.
That bish should be paying Trump $500M, not Trump paying her a dime.
The judge and her probably have a relationship or they are simply both utterly compromised.
Well, dropping the bucket, he has two to $3 billion.
Every time I hear a news report discussing the jury of his peers I can’t help but laugh. I doubt there’s a single member of that jury that anyone with half of mine would consider a peer to Donald Trump.
Never gonna happen. 🙄
Too many people in NY city are just vile... And they call US the haters.
Why didn’t they just make it $250 trillion?
when can Trump start suing liberals in red states with red state juries?
Trump’s not paying her a penny until this gets all the way through ALL the possible appeals. The whole entire case should have been thrown out on its ear to begin with.
unfortunately I heard that in New York, in order to appeal, the person has to put up the original cash reward to be held by a court until the appeal is done.
Doesn’t ever need to happen, doesn’t ever need to be money transacted, the have the headline, Trump guilty, ordered to pay 83.3 million. Idiot leftards will spew that every article, every talking point, and every moderator’s question to him !
This country’s justice system is TRASH!
If he appeals he first has to escrow up the $83 million dollars.
Yeah, and do so in Florida.
Her Lawyers and the jury are getting most of it with a nice tip to the judge.
She’s the one who defamed Trump.

True, however she is one of a zillion who has defamed him.
This woman said on national TV that “Rape is sexy.” Total nutjob.
So hope you are right.
My first reaction was to send a donation to President Trump's defense fund.
