With all the billions and billions Dummkopf Trumpf has, as pointed out above, "$5 million is a pittance."
This donkey should just pay off E. Jean Carroll and move on.
For a schmuck who thinks life is a TV show all about ratings, Trumpf is stepping over dollars to reach for pennies in bad publicity.
The USDJ should just order the US Marshals to Trumpf's bank (Assets Forfeiture) and be done with this.

More from the cited article ...
... Shortly after Kaplan ordered the release of the funds to Carroll from Manhattan District Court, Trump's attorneys filed an appeal of the decision with the 2nd Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals. They later requested that the appeals court stay Kaplan's order. A spokesman for Trump's legal team, in a statement on the order, said, "The American People stand with President Trump as they demand an immediate end to all of the Witch Hunts, including the Democrat-funded travesty of the Carroll Hoaxes. President Trump will keep winning against Liberal Lawfare, as he continues to focus on his mission to Make America Great Again." ...

Cor,
I agree.
He should pay her off and never speak of her again.
Let her fade into the background, if she'll actually go.

Why should she "fade into the background"? Oh, right, to resume her proper place as one of them most modest of wimmunfolk. Carroll has made a successful career and a communicator, living as a writer, journalist, columnist and she needs to clam up? Boolsheet. Did Banquo's ghost shut up? How about Trump hang hos his in shame and shuffling off to the Palm Beach care home ? "Fade away?" You ain't seen nuttin yet, MAGAt.

Doc,
"proper place"?
She won her money. Should she come back every few years for more?
Unless there is a reason for another lawsuit which if Trump is smart there won't be, she has no business stalking him.
Even she has to obey laws.

If she insists on talking about him, she might even open herself up for a lawsuit.
I suspect he has much deeper pockets than she does.
She should enjoy her windfall, go away and find some peace.

Bill - She's a writer, a communicator, she was sexually abused by Trunp, trashed, and there is small reason to think she will just take the check and walk away,
The bum who became president needs calling out.
Constantly.
It's up to her, but she really gets under his skin so ...

"She won her money."
You mean, like, wages for Trump sexually abusing her? Seriously?
This may shock you down to your socks, Bill, but my guess is bringing the case really wasn't about the money.

You have a twisted sense of reality and her limitations as a writer.
In the wacky world of blogs, sometimes people sound like mental cases.
Again...if she isn't a mental case herself, she should give up the limelight and go enjoy her money.
At some point, most "normal" people will see she's a "nut job" and "mentally sick," just like Trump said in a deposition.
Frankly, the TDS exhibited by some liberals makes them look like nut jobs themselves.

"Bill, but my guess is bringing the case really wasn't about the money."
Oh please....it's always about the money.
You REALLY do live in a fantasy world.

Well, there's your problem, Bill: you're thinking like a MAGAt.

And you're not thinking at all.

That's it? Lol.

Every once in a while Trump's horrendous karma, daddy issues, stupidity, and arrogance catch up with him.
Thank you, Ms. Carroll, for going through this to hold the creature to some account.
It's more than the entire Republican Party has been able to find the cojones to accomplish. But it must be tough, eunuchs searching for cojones. Some in the old Chinese imperial court kept theirs in boxes. Check out the Donald Trump Signature Collection on eBay.

Yeak, sure, BILL.
If Trump were your next door neighbor you'd just be as annoyed as the rest of us.
There's something in you that makes you bend, and bend over, to what you see as power. To crass authority.
Concepts of character and competence are foreign to you. You actively resist them.

At some point, most "normal" people will see she's (Jean)is a "nut job" and "mentally sick,"
At some point "normal" people will see that Trump is a thief, a liar, and a sexual deviant.
Jump on the "normal" train, BILL. If you can.

There was probably something called "Herod Derangement Syndrome".
Think about it.
