E. Jean Carroll’s Lawyer Says Client ‘Really Hoped’ $83 Million Would ‘Be Enough To Convince’ Trump To Keep ‘Name out of His Mouth’

PSAKI: “Over the weekend, it seemed like Trump kind of came off awfully — I’m not a lawyer — but he came awfully close to defaming your client again. So let’s just listen to that and I just want to talk about on the other side.”

Trump: “We haven’t done anything wrong. We’ve done nothing wrong. This last case is — we haven’t done anything wrong. How about the one two weeks ago? A woman I’m saying, ‘Who the hell is she? Who is the woman?’ It’s so unfair what’s happening in our country. Our court system is a mess.”

PSAKI: “So I’m just going to restate for everyone, Trump knows exactly who your client is. He was found liable for sexually abusing her and then defaming her by lying about it. Do you watch these? And could this worn a third suit as you watched that?”
CROWLEY: “We certainly watched them. It’s hard — it’s hard not to. Every time Donald Trump speaks, you know, I think as we said at trial, many times he has the biggest megaphone in the world. And so everyone hears them, including us and including our client E. Jean Carroll. And as you said, what he said was — was absolutely a lie. Two unanimous federal juries have found that not only did Trump know who E. Jean was, he sexually assaulted her and — and lied about it repeatedly. Everything he said about her over the last five years has been a lie and has been defamatory. So we’re watching, we’re listening. We had really hoped that, as I think the jury found, that $83 million would maybe be enough to convince him to keep E. Jean Carroll’s name out of his mouth. Apparently he showed us this weekend that he really cannot control himself and that maybe it wasn’t, but you know, we’ll see what — what happens as — as this continues to play out.”
PSAKI: “You’re watching them — I’m sorry, you have to watch all of these here — all of these just like the rest of us do. Shawn Crowley, thank you so much for joining us this evening. I really enjoyed having you on — on our show.”
