Trump's fate in civil case hangs on closing arguments.

The civil trial against former President Donald Trump brought by E. Jean Carroll, who accused him of rape and defamation, has concluded with closing arguments from both sides. Carroll's lawyers argued that 11 witnesses testified that Trump forcibly raped her in the 1990s, while Trump's lawyers pointed out inconsistencies in her story and suggested that the incident never happened. The jury, consisting of six men and three women, will now deliberate and decide whether or not to hold Trump liable. The potential impact could be significant, with the verdict potentially running into the millions and affecting Trump's reputation as the front-runner for the GOP.
