Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, October 28, 2025

Donald Trump left the jury "mesmerized" by his weird behavior and questionable odor during his high-profile legal battle against E. Jean Carroll, the journalist dished on the Daily Beast Podcast. Carroll, 82, vividly recalled Trump's courtroom antics during the 2024 defamation trial that ended with the jury handing her a resounding victory"to the tune of $83.3 million"after she accused Trump of defaming her by calling her a liar over the sexual assault allegations she made against him. Trump, who was campaigning to become the Republican nominee at the time of the trial, left an unforgettable impression on the jury, Carroll said. "They were mesmerized. You have never seen anything like it," she recounted. "He never sat still, and he talked the entire time within earshot of the jury. He belittled Alina Habba, his own attorney. He would spit as he was talking. He didn't smell so good."

- "He didn't smell so good."

Still doesn't, personally or politically.

Trumpers need to regain their sense of smell.
