In a blow to former President Donald Trump, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan has made a ruling in the defamation lawsuit brought against him by writer E. Jean Carroll. And boy, is it a doozy for Trump’s legal team!
Judge Kaplan has decided that certain evidence that Trump’s lawyers were planning to present in the civil trial is “irrelevant” and cannot be used. And let me tell you, folks, this is a big blow to Trump’s defense strategy. The judge specifically nixed the idea of introducing an interview that Carroll did with CNN’s Anderson Cooper in 2019. And why? Well, because it would’ve shown that Carroll was seeking media attention to boost book sales. Can you believe it? The judge is just stomping all over Trump’s plans to discredit Carroll.

Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of this whole shebang. Carroll, a former columnist for that liberal rag, Elle, is suing Trump for defamation. She claims that he sexually assaulted her in a New York department store dressing room back in the 90s. And Trump, being the stand-up guy that he is, denied it. He even had the audacity to say, “she’s not my type.” Ouch! But you know what? Trump has every right to defend himself. And that’s why this defamation case has been dragging on.
But wait, there’s more! This lawsuit is just one of the battles between Carroll and Trump. In another case, a jury actually found Trump liable for sexual battery and defamation, and they awarded Carroll a whopping $5 million in damages. Can you believe that? It’s like the legal system is just rigged against conservatives!
Now, back to the current case. Judge Kaplan put his foot down and said that Trump’s lawyers can’t argue that he didn’t sexually assault Carroll. Can you believe that? It’s like the judge doesn’t even care about the truth. And to make matters worse, Trump’s team tried to introduce evidence to show that Carroll enjoyed being assaulted. I mean, come on! That’s just a desperate attempt to smear her character. But thankfully, the judge saw through their tactics and ruled the evidence inadmissible.
But it doesn’t stop there, folks. The judge also rejected evidence related to Carroll’s media appearances to promote her book. Can you say biased? It’s like he’s protecting Carroll and silencing Trump. I thought we lived in a country that valued free speech and fair trials, but apparently, that’s only true if you’re on the left.
So, what’s the purpose of this trial, you may be wondering? Well, it’s all about determining the extent of the damages caused by Trump’s alleged defamatory statements. The judge has already deemed those statements false and made with “constitutional actual malice.” But now they want to determine just how much harm was done. It’s like they want to squeeze every penny out of Trump for political gain.
In the end, folks, this is just another example of the liberal bias in our legal system. Trump is being treated unfairly, and it’s clear that the judge is out to get him. But we won’t be swayed by their unfair tactics. We’ll continue to stand up for Trump and fight against this injustice. MAGA!
