Donald Trump is ordered to pay $83.3 million to E Jean Carroll in her defamation trial. The jury awards $18.3 million in compensatory damages and $65 million in punitive retribution. Trump vows to appeal, calling the verdict "absolutely ridiculous." Carroll's claims of sexual abuse and defamation won her $5 million last year. The recent ruling stems from Trump's denials and defamatory statements, with $11 million allocated for a reputational repair campaign. Trump dismisses the decision on Truth Social, denouncing it as part of a "Biden Directed Witch Hunt."
