TL;DR Summary

A federal jury has ordered Donald Trump to pay E Jean Carroll over $83m in damages for defaming her by denying he sexually assaulted her, with $65m in punitive damages and over $18m in compensatory damages. The verdict marks the first federal court ruling against the former president as he campaigns for a return to the White House. Trump's attorney plans to appeal the decision, while Trump continues to smear Carroll as a liar and victim of a political witch hunt. This adds to Trump's legal challenges, including 91 criminal charges and a potentially devastating lawsuit against his family business.
