Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) said he’s disappointed but not surprised by a verdict finding former President Donald Trump liable for defamation after he denied accusations raised by author E. Jean Carroll that he raped her in a New York City department store dressing room at some point between late 1995 and early 1996.

On Tuesday, a jury in a New York federal court did not conclude that Trump had raped Carroll but did conclude that he sexually abused her and was thus civilly liable for battery and defamation for publicly denying the incident.
