      He raped her. That last judge went out of their way to clarify that point. He should be in prison. But monetary compensation as well…

          You’re right, of course. It’s why victims of traumatic crimes should have longer to report their attackers and receive justice.

            You reading the same thing? They were explaining the situation, legally. Not logically nor factually, but legally what is going on.

      He won’t pay. He already owes her $5 million, and he’s not going to pay that, either. He probably owes his lawyers more than that, and he’s not paying them.

        That’s not how it works.

        Trump is appealing the $5 million judgment. And when you appeal, the first thing you do is write a check for the entire amount - a check made out to the court. That way if you lose the appeal, the court can pay the plaintiff.

        So, in fact, Trump had already paid the $5 million, even if Carroll can’t spend it yet.

          You sure that’s how it works? I thought Alex Jones appealed his judgement. And definitely didn’t have 1.5Billion to just pay the court with.

            Alex Jones declared bankruptcy protection.

            That means that all debts will be debated in court for the best interest of all parties. Ex: Alex Jones can only pay 1.5 Billion if he keeps his job and keeps working and doing Alex Jones things, so don’t take anything away that prevents Alex Jones from doing his job. (etc. etc.)

            USA has a ton of protections to people who declare bankruptcy that no other country has. For better or worse, everyone (including Alex Jones) gets these protections.

            That’s how it works in federal court, as in this case.

            Jones was sued in Connecticut state court, where the procedure might be different.

        He’d be all excited to get the chance to show how persecuted and downtrodden poor Trumpy is. Maybe another photo of him looking all tough for his fan club to jack off over.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Roughly 20 minutes after walking into the courtroom, Donald Trump stormed out of closing arguments in a civil trial to determine how much money he owes E Jean Carroll for repeatedly defaming her.

    The former president arrived in federal court in Manhattan on Friday morning after briefly testifying in his defence on Thursday afternoon, after which he unleashed more attacks and potentially defamatory statements about the former Elle magazine columnist.

    In her closing statement, Ms Carroll’s attorney Roberta Kaplan told jurors that the former president “acts as if these rules of law just don’t apply to him.”

    The facts in the case have already been established, and Mr Trump is barred from disputing that he sexually abused her, leaving a trial focused exclusively on damages owed.

    Mr Trump instead has used the trial to amplify his defamatory statements and as a stage for his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, which has relied on his multiple lawsuits and criminal indictments to cast him as a victim of a baseless conspiracy theory of a weaponized justice system against him.

    Hours before his appearance in federal court on Friday, he posted a video of himself to his Truth Social account in which he accused Ms Carroll of lying and being a paid political operative.
