GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley said Sunday she “absolutely” trusts the jury in E. Jean Carroll defamation case against former President Trump but that the recent ruling should not bar him from the ballot.

“I absolutely trust the jury. And I think that they made their decision based on the evidence. I just don’t think that should take him off the ballot,” Haley said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“I think the American people will take him off the ballot. I think that’s the best way to go forward, is not let him play the victim. Let him play the loser. That’s what we want him to do at the end of the day,” the former United Nations ambassador continued.

On Friday, a jury ordered Trump to pay $83.3 million for defaming Carroll in 2019 when he denied the writer’s accusation he sexually assaulted her in the mid-1990s. Trump said he will appeal the verdict. Earlier, a separate jury found the former president liable for sexual abuse in a defamation trial last year with Carroll over a separate comment and ordered him to pay $5 million.

    Exactly!!!

    It was like how Cruz kissed his ass after insulting his dad and his wife, but now they’re ALL DOING IT. It’s so freaking bizzare. And these are the people calling others cucks and simps! Your whole thing is being macho, and that you don’t answer to anyone, and you’re the dude that can put these tyrants in their place, blah blah, but then you end it by saying, “well but Mr Trump could do that way better than me, sorry Mr Trump, I know you did so much for us, I don’t want to offend you!”

    I just do not get the appeal of these people. I mean Joe doesn’t get me revved up, but at least he comes out and says “yeah, I’m the man for the job. I’m gonna kick ass and eat ice cream on a train.” If he came out and ended each speech saying “but don’t forget about Hillary! She’s still eligibile, too!” I’d be all WTF about that too.
