Judge Tells Trump's Lawyer To Shut Him Up Or Else
E. Jean Caroll is expected to testify against Donald Trump as jurors in the federal civil case heard her claim of being attacked in a luxury department store dressing room nearly 30 years ago.
"Filled with fear and shame, she kept silent for decades. Eventually, though, silence became impossible," one of her lawyers, Shawn Crowley, said in an opening statement. And he said when Carroll broke that silence in a 2019 memoir, the then-president "used the most powerful platform on Earth to lie about what he had done, attack Ms. Carroll's integrity, and insult her appearance."
Trump exploded on Truth Social.
"The E. Jean Carroll case, Ms. Bergdorf Goodman, is a made up SCAM. Her lawyer is a political operative, financed by a big political donor that they said didn't exist, only to get caught lying about that," he insisted. "Just look at her CNN interview before & after the commercial break - Like a different person. She said there was a dress, using the ol' Monica Lewinsky "stuff", then she didn't want to produce it. The dress should be allowed to be part of the case. This is a fraudulent & false story--Witch Hunt!"
The judge in the case is NOT HAPPY with him.
