"If you’re thinking, 'Hey, isn’t this [continued slander of E. Jean Carroll on social media] even more defamation?' you’d be correct. The question of whether Trump sexually assaulted and defamed Carroll has already been settled by a jury. It is a legal fact. Each time he denies it, he opens himself up to more exposure."

Not going well? I think it’s going great!

@JosephMeyer I'm not quite sure what point in Jay Kuo's statements you're referencing — but I take you to mean he's putting a noose around his neck by his courtroom behavior, and if so, that sounds right to me.

@wdlindsy
Yes, that's my hope.

@JosephMeyer Mine, too. I think his cult followers will always see only a man who doesn't exist — "God made Trump" — but I suspect more than one independent or Republican who's not in the cult may see his behavior in the courtroom now and say, "Nope. This is not presidential material."

@wdlindsy trump may never get to prison. He may spend the rest of his worthless life in court for this one issue. 🙄

@deepmud Possibly. I don't dabble in predicting the future myself. Regardless of the outcome of his several trials, I'm glad to see him hauled before court and confronted with what he has done.

@wdlindsy Any notion what happens if Trump simply refuses to pay? What’s the enforcement mechanism?

@guncelawits That I don’t know.
