A US court has rejected Donald Trump’s appeal in a defamation case, solidifying the previous ruling against him. The court’s decision confirms that Trump must pay $83.3 million to E. Jean Carroll. The ruling stems from Carroll’s allegations that Trump sexually assaulted her and the subsequent social media attacks he launched against her. The court dismissed Trump’s claim of presidential immunity. The initial jury verdict, made last year, was for $88.3 million, addressing Trump’s repeated attacks on Carroll following her claim of a 1996 sexual assault at a Manhattan department store.
