Carroll says she would ‘absolutely’ sue Trump again if another case arises 

Longtime advice columnist E. Jean Carroll said Monday that there is “ample appetite” to sue former President Trump again if new lawsuits arise in the future.

A jury last week ordered Trump to pay a whopping $83.3 million for defaming Carroll in 2019, denying his claims that he sexually assaulted her in the mid-1990s. .

MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow met with Carroll and his lawyers on Monday to address Trump’s recent posts on Truth Social, in which the former president posted multiple posts and articles about Carroll’s claims. shared.

“It seems like he’s already pushing it, whether he’s going to call you a liar or whether he’s going to deny what he did,” Maddow said.

Maddow asked Carroll if she would sue Trump again if her lawyer told her there was another lawsuit against him. Carol replied: absolutely. ”

Mr. Maddow went on to ask Mr. Carroll whether the trial had not been so “draining.”

“Rachel, as you know, many people have gone through much worse than I did in that trial,” Carol replied. “People were going through more hardship than I had ever experienced in my life. We accomplished so much in the seven-day trial that I would love to do it again. We accomplished what we thought was impossible. We defeated Donald Trump.”

At the beginning of the interview, Carroll celebrated the verdict and told Maddow that he believed it “boded well for the future.”

“I think we planted a flag,” she said. “I think we have made a statement that, thanks to this indestructible team of lawyers, things will change and there will be new ways of doing things in this country.”

Last week’s jury verdict marks the first time Carroll has won damages from Trump since another jury last year found him liable for sexually abusing her and defaming her in separate statements. This was the second verdict. The former president was ordered to pay $5 million.

President Trump has claimed that Carroll lied and fabricated the accusations to sell her book, a claim he repeated in multiple social media posts over the past few days.
