Trump LOSES: hit with $90 million fines


E. Jean Carroll, 80, raped by Trump
(Raw Story) Donald Trump on Friday was hit with a near-$90 million [83+5 million, plus legal fees, which he will probably shirk] verdict in [the post-rape of] E. Jean Carroll's defamation case, prompting the internet to react.

The former president was hit with a jury verdict exceeding $80 million for his defamation of the columnist, who was found by a jury to have been sexually assaulted [raped] by Donald John Trump in the 1990s.
  • E. Jean Carroll: raped by Trump and big money win
  • RAPE? Carroll said that on her way out of the store she ran into Trump, and he asked for help buying a gift for a woman. After suggesting a handbag or a hat, the two reputedly moved on to the lingerie section and joked about the other trying some on. Carroll said they ended up in a dressing room together, the door of which was shut, and Trump forcefully kissed her, pulled down her tights, and raped her before she was able to escape. She stated that the incident lasted less than three minutes [50, 51]. Lisa Birnbach and Carol Martin told New York magazine that Carroll had confided in them shortly after the assault [16, 2, 52]....

This caused some to joke about where the money might come from. "And Mexico will pay for it," Democratic lawmaker Jared Moskowitz said in response to the massive verdict.

Legal writer Walter Olson wrote, "Man who vowed 'to open up those libel laws' so 'when they write purposely negative and horrible false articles, we can sue them and in lots of money' can look at life from both sides now."

Conservative attorney George Conway responded directly to Trump, who said the damages award was "absolutely ridiculous." 'Mexico will pay for it': Internet erupts after Trump hit with $83.3M verdict - Raw Story
