Former President Donald Trump responded Tuesday to an amended defamation complaint filed by E. Jean Carroll that asked a court to include compensatory damages for comments he made about her during a televised town hall event earlier this month.
Trump’s latest remarks came just hours after lawyers for Carroll, 79, accused Trump, 76, of having “doubled down” on derogatory comments about their client when he appeared at the town hall event on CNN on May 10, where he called his accuser a “whack job” and said her claims were fake.
