The former president fired off a series of potentially defamatory statements as he arrived in court

As he arrived at a federal courthouse in lower Manhattan, Donald Trump’s Truth Social account released an avalanche of posts attacking E Jean Carroll, who is suing the former president for defamation.

A jury in New York City will determine what damages he owes Ms Carroll, whom Mr Trump defamed by repeatedly calling her a liar and denying that he sexually assaulted her.

It’s the second trial stemming from defamation claims brought by Ms Caroll, and a jury already found him civilly responsible for sexually abusing her in the 1990s. He continues to claim that he never met her and has repeatedly mocked and ridiculed Ms Carroll in the wake of that verdict.

      These were civil rather than criminal charges, so he was liable rather than guilty, so he isn’t technically a convict.

      You can just call him sex offender treason Trump, both are still 100% true, I just want to make sure that when you’re letting people know that Trump is a rapist and a traitor, they don’t have the opportunity to say “well ackshually…”

        Since Convicted Sex Offender Treason Trump himself would never make that distinction, we do not have to make that distinction while talking about Treason Trump.
