Show Notes
For this episode of Trump's Trials, NPR's JuanaSummers speaks to NPR's AndreaBernstein.
A day after winning the Iowa caucuses by nearly 30 points, former President Donald Trump appeared in a Manhattan courtroom to face a second defamation lawsuit brought by writer E. Jean Carroll. Last year, a jury found that Trump sexually abused Carroll in the 1990s and ordered Trump to pay her $5 million for defaming her in recent years. This second case centers around additional comments Trump made about Carroll that have already been deemed defamatory by a judge. Carroll is seeking ten million dollars in addition to what she was already awarded last year.
Topics include:
- Trump back in the courtroom
- A breakdown of Carroll's claims
- A look at what comes next
