Former President Donald Trump is wishing people a happy Memorial Day â even those he deems âhuman scum.â
In a post on Truth Social Monday, Trump wrote, âHappy Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard to destroy our Once Great Country, to the Radical Left, Trump Hating Federal Judge in New York that presided over, get this, TWO separate trials, that awarded a woman, who I never met before (a quick handshake at a celebrity event, 25 years ago, doesnât count!), 91 MILLION DOLLARS for âDEFAMATION.'â
âShe didnât know when the so-called event took place â sometime in the 1990âs â never filed a police report, didnât have to produce the âdressâ that she threatened me with (it showed negative!), sung my praises in the first half of her CNN Interview with Alison Cooper, but changed her tune in the second half â Gee, I wonder why (UNDER APPEAL!)? The Rape charge was dropped by a jury!â he continued.
Last year, Trump was found liable of sexually abusing author E. Jean Carroll decades ago and ordered to pay her $5 million.
And while his team sought to argue a jury did not find him liable of rabe, The Washington Post notes the judge who presided over the trial âclarified that this is basically a legal distinction without a real-world difference. He says that what the jury found Trump did was in fact rape, as commonly understood.â
And in January, a jury ruled he has to pay Carroll another $83 million for defamation.
Trump is appealing both verdicts.
