Carroll's first lawsuit has been tied up on legal technicalities and, in a court filing, her lawyers sought a judge's permission to include Trump's words after the May 9 verdict.
"Immediately after the verdict was announced, Trump began lashing out in response. He started by posting various messages and videos on his Truth Social account decrying the verdict, and disparaging Carroll, the jury, and the judicial system more generally," Carroll's lawyers said.
"Mere minutes after the verdict became public, Trump repeated the defamatory lie that he had no idea who Carroll was and again claimed that her accusation of sexual assault was politically motivated: "I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHO THIS WOMAN IS. THIS VERDICT IS A DISGRACE - A CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME!"Carroll is seeking additional punitive damages if her first lawsuit ultimately moves forward and is successful.
