First Convict President? 5 Key Moments From Trump’s Bombshell Rape Trial Deposition

5 Key Moments From Trump’s Bombshell Rape Trial Deposition (MediaITElink): Donald Trump’s taped deposition in the E. Jean Carroll civil rape and defamation case against the former president was unsealed on Friday. Clips of Trump’s deposition show the 2024 leading GOP candidate calling Carroll“mentally sick” and “not my type.” 

At one point Trump claims he never met Carroll before lawyers show him a photo of the two together – he then mixes up Carroll with his ex-wife Marla Maples.

In 2019, Carroll accused Trump of raping her in a dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman’s in New York City in the 1990s. Trump quickly denied the allegations and launched brutal attacks on Carroll, over which she sued him for defamation. Carroll also filed a civil suit against the former president accusing him of rape. 

Carroll’s lawyer asked Trump about the photo of him with Carroll, “And do you recall when you first saw this photo?”

“At some point during the process, I saw that’s I guess, her husband, John Johnson, who was an anchor for ABC. Nice guy. I thought I mean, I don’t know him, but I thought he was pretty good at what he did. I don’t even know who the woman. Let’s see. I don’t know who. It’s Marla,” Trump replied.

“You say Marla is in the photo?” Kaplan asked.

“That’s Marla. Yeah, it’s. It’s my wife,” Trump replied.

“Which one are you pointing to now,” Kaplan asked to clarify.

“Here,” Trump replied. “That person you just pointed to is E. Jean Carroll,” replied Kaplan.
