The writer says she was "terrified" to face the ex-president in court in her defamation case.

Ms Carroll, 80, told ABC News on Monday: "I’d like to give the money to something Donald Trump hates.

“If it will cause him pain for me to give money to certain things, that’s my intent.”

The former magazine columnist suggested the money could be used to set up a “fund for the women who have been sexually assaulted by Donald Trump”.

    “fund for the women who have been sexually assaulted by Donald Trump”.

    It should be a civil lawsuit fund. Pay the legal bills for other women to launch civil lawsuits against him. Bury the fucker.

    I suggest spending it on additional defamation lawsuits against Donald Trump.

        I doubt it. I don’t think information that doesn’t involve him directly even enters into his awareness.

        Give it to mexico, would piss him off more than anything. They have this real bad cocaine sugar problem and need to get it out… Or so Ive heard… From a friend neighbour…

        On a serious note, getting mexicans across the border to get citizenship would give him a heart attack

      I don’t think Trump actually has opinions on those organizations because they don’t affect him personally. To him they’re names he can mention to rile up his cult.

    Donald thinks I’m a complete cunt, wouldn’t piss on me if I were on fire atop Obama’s presidential bed in a Russian hotel. He considers me to be worse than Hunter Biden’s laptop.

    Just saying.

    Trump probably doesn’t actually hate anything… His crippling narcissism would stop him from focusing on something else long enough to hate it. He’s an opportunist that repeats what he’s told to publicly discourage by his handlers, but he couldn’t tell you the things he “hated” yesterday.

      If he loses the appeal, I believe she will. He has to put 120% of the award in escrow with the court while the appeal process unfolds. The extra is actually for interest and fees, so if the appeal takes awhile, she might actually get more (if I’m understanding that correctly)!

        That’s a very important part of the process. It does 2 things.

        1: makes sure the victim can actually get the money at the end of the process.

        2: prevents pointless appeals that have zero chance of success. Or at least makes the appealer think about the implications of losing a frivolous appeal.

      At that point, Trump and his ilk still win lol.

    On something he hates?

    That’s… just a lot of salad, I’m not sure how much salad that can buy.

      Um, maybe she could try to:

      "Blunt the knives, bend the forks

      Smash the bottles and burn the corks

      Chip the glasses and crack the plates…"

      🤷🏼‍♂️
