Donald Trump and his legal team are defending themselves against an attempt by author E. Jean Carroll to exploit a long-stalled defamation lawsuit as a means of extorting additional money from Trump.

Carroll won a civil lawsuit against Trump earlier this month in which the jury dismissed her allegation that the former president had sexually assaulted her in the 1990s but yet gave her $2 million in damages for sexual abuse and $3 million for slander.

The Republican front-runner for president in 2024, Donald Trump, has refuted the accusations and is appealing the decision.

According to The New York Times, Carroll wants to amend a defamation case she brought against Trump in 2019 as a result of his remarks when she originally went public with her accusations.

In her quest for punitive damages, she is attempting to take into account both the former president’s remarks about her during a May 10 CNN town hall and the jury decision against him.

Trump said of Carroll, “I have no idea who the hell she is. I don’t know who this woman is. … She’s a whack job.”

According to CNBC, Carroll is seeking $10 million from the former president.

The court filing said his statements at the town hall “show the depth of his malice toward Carroll since it is hard to imagine defamatory conduct that could possibly be more motivated by hatred, ill will or spite,” the Times reported.

Alina Habba, an attorney for Trump, reportedly stated late Monday that Carroll was not entitled to any compensation from her 2019 civil lawsuit, “let alone punitive damages.”

“We intend to vigorously oppose this motion, which we view as nothing more than a desperate, last-ditch effort by Ms. Carroll to upend this case,” Habba said.

According to The Times, Carroll’s attorney Roberta Kaplan informed the court that Trump had threatened to sue her client “in retaliation and possibly to seek sanctions.”

Habba responded when asked if Trump would consider suing Carroll, saying, “We have been paying attention to the statements made by Ms. Carroll in the press and are considering all options.”

She said to NBC News that Carroll is only out to make money.

“Ms. Carroll’s eleventh-hour attempt to amend her complaint exposes the true motivation behind her numerous lawsuits,” Habba said.

Seemingly unfazed by the prospect of another payout, Trump fired back Tuesday on his Truth Social platform.

“I don’t know E. Jean Carroll, I never met her or touched her (except on a celebrity line with her African American husband who she disgustingly called the ‘Ape,’), I wouldn’t want to know or touch her, I never abused her or raped her or took her to a dressing room 25 years ago in a crowded department store where the doors are LOCKED, she has no idea when, or did anything else to her, except deny her Fake, Made Up Story, that she wrote in a book. IT NEVER HAPPENED, IS A TOTAL SCAM, UNFAIR TRIAL!” he posted.

In another post, the former president said:

“The Carroll case is part of the Democrats playbook to tarnish my name and person, much like the now fully debunked Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, the 51 Intelligence Agents, FBI/Twitter Files, and so much more. It is being funded and tried by Democrat operatives, although this was denied by them, and when they got caught in the lie, the Clinton appointed judge would not let us use it in trial.

“Time will prove him to be highly partisan & very unfair. Where’s the dress she said she had?”

In addition to calling Carroll a “whack job” during the CNN town hall, he mocked her claims and gave his opinion of her story.

“What kind of a woman meet somebody and brings them up and within minutes, you’re playing hanky-panky in a dressing room, OK?” Trump said.

The woke agenda is being promoted everywhere.

Not only is it being promoted on television, and in movies, but that is just the tip of the iceberg.

Even the stores that we shop at are funding the very liberal, commie, woke agendas that we are doing our best to rail against.

Now, we have to deal with our meat being pumped full of this new mRNA junk!

So, there here are the three questions to ask before you shop:

What agendas, if any, is this company funding?

What narratives are being pushed by this company?

Do I trust that the products I’m buying are safe?

These corporate conglomerates have brainwashed us into thinking their products are the only products. And if they’re budget-friendly they must be all we can get.

This is categorically untrue.

There are safer, more affordable alternatives out there

We need to stop funding these woke companies and I have an amazing alternative for you.

The only “catch”?

It’s only by referral.

Good thing you know someone that can refer you and that is me.

So, click this link and I can send you some information on shopping with an American-made, patriot-owned store that also has grass-fed beef.

They have everything that we are already buying.

Laundry detergent, hair care, skincare, vitamins, snacks, essential oils, candles, weight loss,  a complete baby line, discounts on health care, a security system, and even an identity protector for our online presence.
