"Trump Settlement Money: E. Jean Carroll's New Wardrobe Sparks Controversy"
E. Jean Carroll, who accused Donald Trump of rape, faced backlash for joking about using the money from her lawsuit settlement to buy a new wardrobe during an interview on "The Rachel Maddow Show." Carroll had won an $83.3 million award in her defamation lawsuit against Trump, with the jury ordering him to pay $65 million for punitive damages, $11 million to rebuild her reputation, and $7.3 million for pain and suffering. Trump vowed to appeal the verdict, claiming it infringed on his First Amendment rights.
