Trump lawyer tries to discredit E Jean Carroll in bizarre exchange during trial
As Alina Habba, Trump’s counsel, hammered on about the writer’s commentary on social media, questioning took an absurd turn
E Jean Carroll’s New York defamation trial against Donald Trump resumed on Thursday with the ex-president’s lawyer trying to discredit her on cross-examination with a bizarre dialectic about genitals and by intimating that she has loose morals.
