Former President Donald Trump on Saturday stood by his 2019 statement that writer E. Jean Carroll made a “totally false accusation” against him, despite similar claims resulting in him losing a defamation case in January.
Campaigning at a rally in Rome, Georgia, Trump referenced the $91.6 million bond he posted on March 8, three days before his deadline to pay $83.3 million in damages to Carroll for defaming her in statements he made as president after denying her accusation that he’d raped her in a department store dressing room in the 1990s.
Carroll first came forward in 2019 with sexual assault claims against Trump before another civil trial in May 2023, where a New York jury found that the former president sexually abused Carroll but didn’t rape her.
The year is 2065. E. Jean Carroll is the richest human alive. She rules a business empire that stretches across the globe and even to Mars. This empire does not charge for services, sell products or even take investor funding.
Its only source of revenue is suing the immortal cyborg that is Donald Trump, who even after 40 years of taking Ls is still pathologically unable to keep his fucking mouth shut.
Black Mirror has been too on the nose lately.
The irony of the GOP going bankrupt because they have to donate all their money to women’s charities after selling the party out to this buffoon is so think I could choke on it.
The lack of empathy with Trump supporters should be studied. Because I would love to know what drives them to this man so much. He has the strongest collective of meat riders in human history.
America is full of assholes. Trump is their King. King of the assholes and hero to the stupid.
It’s like they’re drawn to the warmth of a book burning.
It’s called fanaticism, which is when people stop liking someone because of their actions/oratory and start liking the actions/oratory because they came from the person.
Americans have been conditioned such that they’re fallible to this bullshit.
Did we forget the Arabs, Swedes, Japanese, Russians, Canadians, Mexicans, need I go on?
Human nature is a human nature thing, not an American thing.
Sincerely,
Someone not a fan of useful idiots pushing needless division.
Well, firstly, I didn’t say other people haven’t been brainwashed, just that americans had. Secondly, the american brand is very strong. Not a ton of countries would’ve allowed a specimin like trump to get anywhere near high office, let alone elected them president, all while crowing to all and sundry about what a utopia the usa is and how much better they are than everyone else!
My hypothesis is lead poisoning.
I remember reading at the start of Covid in the US, when the government was saying “masks are dumb”, but local churches were going “masks save lives”, the churches were surprised at how much pushback they were getting.
Turns out raising someone from a young age to believe without questioning, and look up to one person as their only source of truth, and ignore compelling scientific evidence, is pretty hard conditioning to break.

Im sorry but how did you rule out Asbestos??
Doesn’t asbestos just give you mega asthma and giga cancer and not turn you into a soulless piece of shit?
It also stops fire.
And water, when it’s in shingle or siding form. Wow this is a miraculous material, we ought to start using it for everything!
Doesn’t asbestos just give you mega asthma
I believe its also a carcinogen
That’s what causes the aforementioned giga cancer.
Eighties and nineties peeps will remember:
Do you or someone you know have mesothelioma?!
Asbestos is more cancer-causing while lead does more of the developmental delay thing.
Asbestos, while it has negative health implications, does not have a mind-altering component like lead poisoning.
I agree, but I think it’s more than that. Even if you think Trump is telling the truth and all of this is a made up lie (even though there are other signs like cheating on his wife to sleep with porn stars and being caught on a mic saying he just grabs women by the pussy), IT’S EXTREMELY DUMB for him to keep talking about it!
Trump should be renamed to Xenu.
They all wish they could be him. These are people who would act JUST LIKE TRUMP if they could get away with it. They aren’t into him because of the policy, they are into him because they are jealous.
I want to thank Putin for funding E. Jean Carroll’s charities for helping abused women, and I am looking forward to more, even larger donations. Ukraine could use some aid, also, since Putin is feeling so charitable.
He’ll keep defaming her because he knows it doesn’t cost him a penny. He knows that he has his legions of mugs and idiots who will keep giving up their social security checks for him.
Looks to me like she’s found herself the ol infinite money glitch.
Suing Trump is a perfectly balanced activity with no exploits. Today, I present to you a gloriously devious infinite money glitch that shall render our wallets fuller than a royal treasury on a binge! Prepare yourselves for a fiscal frenzy the likes of which the political world has never seen!
I am going to pour myself a cup of Yorkshire Gold and join you. Brb
Doubling down is the only thing he knows how to do. It’s how he avoided impeachments and has delayed his criminal trials. Looks like the civil acts are finally starting to catch up though. He’s already posted one bond. He can’t keep doing this forever.
It’s also how he’s avoided civil trials and paying judgments in the past. Keep denying, keep denying, ever onwards, and eventually the court will give up because they’re tired, the plaintiff is tired, and nobody wants to deal with you screeching “no I didn’t do it” for the 843rd time.
Speedrun any% losing all your money like a fucking moron, haha. He just can’t resist talking about her. She’s gonna be the one to take him down, lol.
Well what with the whole Republican party gearing up to pay all his court stuff might as well take them all down eventually.
100% wishful thinking I know.
Love it. Every time he can’t help himself, he’ll get a larger and larger financial slap. Next ones gonna be pretty big.
FWIW the New York jury found that she didn’t prove he forced his penis inside of her. They found he did force his fingers inside of her vagina. In New York state law, that is sexual assault but not rape. It is rape according to federal law, and most colloquial uses of the term “rape.” Donald Trump raped E. Jean Carroll, that is what was proven in court.
He wasn’t charged with rape in either state or federal court, because the statute of limitations had expired when she went public with her story.
So it’s important to be clear, the jury did not find him innocent of rape. They found he did commit an act that is widely considered rape. It’s inaccurate to say that they found he didn’t rape her. They found that the act that had been proven did not meet the narrow New York state law standard for rape.
“I just posted a $91 million bond, $91 million on a fake story, totally made-up story,” Trump said, adding that the judgment was, “based on false accusations made about me by a woman that I knew nothing about, didn’t know, never heard of, I know nothing about her.”
What a dumbass.
He cannot control himself. He truly can’t help it. Hit him again!
Her infinite money hack just potentially got even more infinite.
He is completely incapable of keeping his big mouth shut.
Seems like a great attribute for a president, no?
I mean didn’t he tweet classified satellite photos to prove a point once? The question was rhetorical, he did.
And people want this dumbass to lead the USA?
They love a bully
He’ll extort them again.
If I was his lawyer I may try arguing his mental state prevents him from understanding the words he says. I’m not a lawyer, but that’s the only explanation I can think of as to why he keeps this up. There’s a lot to say about his base, but honestly they can ignore things as they do with the rulings. He’s got plenty of other people he can go after, plenty of hate he could spend time on. He just keeps sticking his hand in this piranha bowel. He’s an idiot.
his mental state prevents him from understanding the words he says
What a delightful precedent that would set
The idiot that fronted him that money is, well, an idiot.
He probably got some decent collateral for the effort. That may not have been that dumb of a move. For everything Trump has done, I think it will be wonderful if the thing that destroys him isn’t the fraud or the insurrection, but his inability to shut the fuck up over what was originally a minor financial inconvenience to him. I just hope he keeps spending RNC money faster than it can be donated.
Court records filed Friday show that the bond was guaranteed by the Chubb Corporation, an insurance group. In 2018, Trump appointed Chubb’s CEO Evan Greenberg to a White House advisory committee for trade policy and negotiations.
They are all betting he gets elected again in which case none of these cases matter
