Trump files suit for defamation

So, if I understand, he is suing for defamation for something the court already sided with here on civilly? Bold strategy.

 

Good luck.

 

Do you think a Florida jury cares about what the NY grand jury thinks.

 

Does he expect a fair trial?

 

You should up your monthly tithe to trump to 60% of your income to assist with his lawsuit.

 

No way. Haven't you heard him over and over? "Witch hunt!" "I've done nothing wrong!" (Translation: "I'm a POS!")

 

I freely admit I’m not a lawyer so not claiming to be an expert, but they found him liable for sexual abuse no? So his lawsuit is going to be “I sexually abused her but didn’t rape her, so she’s lying and owes me money”? Just don’t see how that would ever happen, a jury that would reward a guy against the woman he sexually abused. But maybe I’m proven wrong

 

His lawyers file whatever lawsuits he tells them to file. They know he's batshit crazy but he pays them. (Well, him paying them is reportedly a problem too.)'

 

I would 100% file this lawsuit if I was Donald Trump, because she's a nutcase as evidenced in her notorious interview with Anderson Cooper where she walked back the rape claim and then stated most people think of rape as "sexy." I think AC was literally pissing in his pants. Notwithstanding the jury's unanimous finding that he didn't rape her. I would hope all of you would do the same if some nutcase woman tried to ruin your life with such false allegations.

Even if Trump gets the most favorable ruling, with the highest reward, there's fat chance he'll see a fraction of that award and whatever fraction that is, he clearly doesn't need to line his pockets with. His popularity (or lack thereof) isn't going to change regardless of the outcome. But either way, out of principle, 100% of the time, I would sue. She's a loon and loons shouldn't be allowed to take egregiously false allegations this far.

 

He only sexually abused her and that's a win? How much lower does the bar go?

 

So if a jury somehow determines in Trump's favor, they would decide how much additional defamation damage may have occurred due to claims of rape vs already determined sexual assault. Sounds to me like give the man back $10.00 and we're done.

 

You are not at any disadvantage discussing trial by not having legal training. Nothing he does has a need to do with any cognizable legal standard.

BTW, he just deposited the judgment sums. This is a legal measure you need to do to avoid having her executing on his assets while he appeals. He's basically deposited in the amount so that she's protected and can recover after the appeal she prevails, which she should, statistically.

 

Think I missed this legal wizardry from earlier this month.

Bid to Dismiss Case Because Trump Is ‘White Christian’ Fails

A judge denied an attempt by a Donald Trump ally to dismiss one of writer E. Jean Carroll’s defamation lawsuits against the former president on the grounds that he is being treated unfairly for being a “white Christian.”
