TL;DR Summary

Donald Trump attended the first day of his civil defamation trial where a jury was selected to determine potential damages to be paid to E. Jean Carroll for his defamatory statements about her sexual assault allegations. Trump's lawyer argued that Carroll's reputation was not harmed and that the case is about defamation, not assault. The jury selection process provided insight into the panel, with prospective jurors expressing varied political views. Carroll is expected to testify, and the trial is anticipated to last a few days, with Trump's lawyers indicating his intention to testify as well. The judge has limited the testimony to damages and harm, and Trump's lawyers requested a trial postponement, which was denied.
