    Short deliberation. To the lawyers on here, does that suggest a direction in a trial like this?

    Jury finds Trump engaged in sexual abuse against E. Jean Carroll- $2 million in damages. This is the middle ground option (it is not rape or unwanted touching, which were the top and bottom options).

    Trump's statements are found to be defamation. Another ~$3 million (not sure if that includes the other $2 million or if it is added on).

    I'm sure Trump will appeal but will have to post an appellate bond to do so?

    I think his CNN Town Hall is tomorrow night. Wonder if that still happens.

    Knowing Trump, he's about to make this thing a whole lot worse for himself when he starts talking/posting about it.

    I'm sure his supporters will be deeply disturbed about sexual assault. Remember, this incident

    Man, the cognitive dissonance from this is going to be one for the history books.

    Me, I'm still waiting for one of Jeffrey's secret jet plane / Caribbean videos to pop up. That would for sure seal the deal with Trump supporters.

    What's wild is this would be a political gift for anyone running against him in a primary and there is almost no chance they bring it up!
