Trump testifies, denies defamation, in E. Jean Carroll trial

Trump testifies in E. Jean Carroll defamation trial.

Former President Donald Trump made a rare appearance on the witness stand in a defamation trial filed against him by E. Jean Carroll. This trial is one of several court cases in which Trump is currently involved, as he balances legal proceedings with his political aspirations for the 2024 presidential race.

During his testimony, which lasted less than three minutes, Trump was asked if he stood by his previous statements regarding Carroll's sexual assault allegations against him. Trump confidently replied, '100% yes.' He acknowledged making the statements in 2019 and deemed Carroll's accusations as 'totally false.' However, Judge Lewis Kaplan promptly interjected, striking everything Trump said after confirming he made the statement.
