Trump hurls more lurid claims at E. Jean Carroll after she asks court to punish him again

Former President Donald Trump responded to an amended defamation complaint filed by rape accuser E. Jean Carroll with more potentially defamatory denials.

The former president was found liable earlier this month for defamation and sexual abuse by a jury, which ordered him to pay $5 million in damages, and Carroll asked a court to amend her initial case to seek additional damages after he repeated his denials during a CNN town hall days later -- which Trump repeated yet again Tuesday morning on his Truth Social website.

"I don’t know E. Jean Carroll, I never met her or touched her (except on a celebrity line with her African American husband who she disgustingly called the 'Ape,)," Trump posted. "I wouldn’t want to know or touch her, I never abused her or raped her or took her to a dressing room 25 years ago in a crowded department store where the doors are LOCKED, she has no idea when, or did anything else to her, except deny her Fake, Made Up Story, that she wrote in a book. IT NEVER HAPPENED, IS A TOTAL SCAM, UNFAIR TRIAL!"

He continued his rant in a second post claiming to be the target of a politically motivated campaign to harm his reputation.

"The Carroll case is part of the Democrats playbook to tarnish my name and person, much like the now fully debunked Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, the 51 Intelligence Agents, FBI/Twitter Files, and so much more," Trump posted. "It is being funded and tried by Democrat operatives, although this was denied by them, and when they got caught in the lie, the Clinton appointed judge would not let us use it in trial. Time will prove him to be highly partisan & very unfair. Where’s the dress she said she had?"

Carroll has accused the ex-president of sexually assaulting her in the mid-1990s at a New York City department store and then of defaming her when he denied the allegation and said she wasn't his type, then accused her of making up the story to improve sales of her book.

The jury agreed and ordered him to pay damages.
