Trump and Accuser Trade Barbs as Defamation Trial Gets Heated

Former Elle columnist E. Jean Carroll emotionally testified in court that ex-President Trump sexually assaulted her in the 1990s, then defamed her character when she eventually spoke out publicly with the allegation while he was still president - sparking a tense $10 million legal battle now playing out dramatically in a Manhattan courtroom as Trump campaigns for the White House again. Carroll gave tearful testimony alleging threats and financial hardship amid harsh questioning from Trump's attorney, as Trump earned an admonishment from the exasperated trial judge for his own disruptive commentary maligning Carroll's claims.
