Keep flapping those orange lips, you deranged moron:
After Donald Trump on Monday again denied rape and defamation claims successfully brought against him by E Jean Carroll, a lawyer for the writer said “all options are on the table”.
Carroll’s
lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, has previously suggested that she could file a
third defamation lawsuit against the ex-president for comments he has
continued making against Carroll.
During the Memorial Day holiday on Monday, Trump posted on Truth Social a long rant
about his various civil and criminal court entanglements, including
litigation leveled against him by Carroll. In April, a federal judge upheld a jury’s decision to award Carroll $83.3m and denied Trump a new trial.
“Happy
Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard
to destroy our Once Great Country,” he wrote. He referred to Caroll as
“a woman, who I never met before (a quick handshake at a celebrity
event, 25 years ago, doesn’t count!)”.
“She
didn’t know when the so-called event took place – sometime in the 1990s
– never filed a police report, didn’t have to produce the ‘dress’ that
she threatened me with (it showed negative!) … The Rape charge was
dropped by a jury!”
Carroll has filed and won
two defamation lawsuits against Trump, who she said sexually abused her
in a New York department store changing room in 1996. In the lawsuits,
Carroll said that Trump’s accusations that she is lying about the case
had ruined her reputation.
Trump, who is
appealing both cases, appears to be undaunted by the fact that Carroll
has already had success in court against him and continues to make
comments disparaging her credibility. [snip]
In response to those comments, Kaplan, Carroll’s attorney, said that
“the statute of limitations for defamation in most jurisdictions is
between one and three years”.
“As we said after the last jury verdict, we continue to monitor every statement that Donald Trump makes about our client,” Kaplan said.
On Monday, Kaplan responded to
Trump’s Memorial Day comments, appearing to reiterate her statement
from earlier in the spring that suggested she could help Carroll pursue
yet another defamation lawsuit against the former president.
“We
have said several times since the last jury verdict in January that all
options were on the table,” Kaplan said. “And that remains true today –
all options are on.”
Please, please, please file that lawsuit! His disordered mind, sense of victimization, and lack of impulse control make his flapping lips a cash register for Ms. Carroll and others he has and will continue to defame.

Meanwhile, Malignant Loser ass kisser Judge Aileen Cannon continues to drag out proceedings in the classified documents case:
The judge overseeing Donald Trump's classified documents case in Florida
on Tuesday denied prosecutors' request to bar the former president from
making public statements that could endanger law enforcement agents
participating in the prosecution.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon
said in her order that prosecutors didn’t give defense lawyers adequate
time to discuss the request before it was filed Friday evening. She
denied the request without prejudice, meaning prosecutors could file it
again.
The request followed a distorted claim by Trump last week that the FBI
agents who searched his Mar-a-Lago estate in August 2022 were
“authorized to shoot me” and were “locked & loaded ready to take me
out & put my family in danger.”
The
presumptive Republican presidential nominee was referring to the
disclosure in a court document that the FBI, during the search, followed
a standard use-of-force policy that prohibits the use of deadly force
except when the officer conducting the search has a reasonable belief
that the “subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or
serious physical injury to the officer or to another person.”
Yes, what we need is more time for the defense to discuss the gag order request. "Ten days? A month? After the election? Why, whatever I can do to help."
