Jamie Lee Curtis, Bill O'Reilly, more react to the stunning Trump verdict
_
Donald Trump was found liable of sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll in a New York City department store in 1996. A jury also found the 44th President of the United States liable for battery and defamation. He was found not liable for rape. In all, Trump’s accuser was awarded $5 million. As this was a civil case, Trump was not required to appear in court, but he denied the allegations and opted not to testify. Following the accusation, Trump did famously say that E. Jean was “not [his] type” and called the accusation a “hoax.” He did, however, sit for a deposition as part of the suit and mistook E. Jean for his ex-wife, Marla Maples. He also called E. Jean a “whack job” and a “nut job” during the deposition. After the verdict, Trump called it a “disgrace.” “I have absolutely no idea who this woman is,” he said on Truth Social. “This verdict is a disgrace — A continuation of the greatest witch hunt of all time!”
