Trump's sexual abuse verdict raises doubts about his future.

A New York jury's verdict that Donald Trump was liable for sexually abusing writer E. Jean Carroll in the 1990s and then defaming her is renewing debate within the Republican Party about the former president's electability as he consolidates an early polling lead for the 2024 nomination. While some Republicans are voicing misgivings about the potential political damage from the Carroll case, others are dismissing it as already baked in for many voters. Trump's legal team has said they plan to appeal the verdict, and Trump's campaign released a lengthy statement attacking Carroll, her lawyer, the judge, and the evidence.
