Trump Launches Online Tirade Against E. Jean Carroll Ahead of Second Defamation Trial

The former president faces another court battle after losing a civil case to Carroll, who was awarded $5 million in damages for sexual abuse and defamation.

Former President Donald Trump has been posting repeatedly about E. Jean Carroll on his social media platform, Truth Social, ahead of their second defamation trial.
Trump's posts include repeated attacks on Carroll and accusations against the judge overseeing the case, who he claims should have recused himself.
Carroll previously won a civil case against Trump, with a jury finding him liable for sexually abusing her and awarding her $5 million in damages.
Despite the jury not finding Trump liable for rape, a judge later stated that Trump 'raped' Carroll as many people commonly understand the term.
The upcoming trial will determine how much in damages Trump should pay for defamatory comments he made about Carroll in 2019.
