Former President Trump said Friday he plans to appeal after a jury ordered him to pay $83.3 million for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll, who had alleged he sexually assaulted her decades ago.
“Absolutely ridiculous! I fully disagree with both verdicts, and will be appealing this whole Biden Directed Witch Hunt focused on me and the Republican Party,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Our Legal System is out of control, and being used as a Political Weapon.”
“They have taken away all First Amendment Rights,” he added. “THIS IS NOT AMERICA!”
Friday’s ruling by a jury in New York marked the second time Carroll has won damages from Trump at trial, with the new total adding to a $5 million verdict last year finding Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll and defaming her over a separate comment.
Less than a decade ago? Were you around to vote against Bush Sr’s backbirth the first term? Were you there when he got judges to grant him his second? “Less than a decade” is a naive breadth of scope in politics, all due respect.
Bush Sr. was never indicted. He should have been for Iran-Contra, but he wasn’t. Trump has 91 indictments. That’s how much worse he’s been than Bush Sr.
That’s not the point at all, especially since I was referring to Jr. It’s been murderous fucking assclowns for decades, citizen. Generations, even. (Ah, Carter. Sweet ol’ Jimmy.)
Carter was the last genuinely decent human to occupy the White House. And that was over 40 fucking years ago. Goddamn, 3 full generations of self-serving assholes.
