E. Jean Carroll wins $83M defamation lawsuit against Trump

News summary

MSNBC analyst Lisa Rubin has observed that E. Jean Carroll, who was awarded $83m in damages in her defamation trial against Donald Trump, appeared to be "emboldened" by the experience, after initially appearing uncomfortable and terrified. Carroll is said to be more interested in the symbolic victory over Trump than the money, although she has suggested she will set up a fund for other women who have been assaulted by Trump. Trump's legal team are already planning an appeal, which could take months, and in the meantime he has the choice of putting the entire amount into an escrow account, or trying to find a company to act as surety for a bond, for a smaller, upfront payment. Trump still has the $5.6m from the first set of damages pending appeal. Analysts believe that, despite Trump's bluster, he will eventually pay the money.
