Former President Donald Trump was recently warned against using his 2024 campaign funds to pay E. Jean Carroll, after being ordered to pay the former columnist stemming from a defamation lawsuit.
On Monday, Dave Aronberg, the state attorney in Florida’s Palm Beach County, appeared on MSNBC’s Morning Joe and spoke about the recent jury ruling in New York, which ordered Trump to pay Carroll $83.3 million for defamatory statements he made about her in 2019.
“He’s got to post a bond just to appeal within 30 days of the judgment. So E. Jean Carroll will get her money at some point,” Aronberg said. “He can try to get money from his supporters, but he’s got to tell them what it’s for…He can’t say, ‘Help me with my re-election fund’ and then divert the money to E. Jean Carroll, that would be a crime.”
Trump was previously ordered to pay Carroll $5 million after he was found liable for sexually assaulting the former Elle columnist in a Manhattan department store dressing room in the mid-1990s. Trump repeatedly denied the allegations, bashed Carroll and said she wasn’t his “type,” prompting the second lawsuit she brought against the former president.

Fucking lol. As if something being a crime would ever stop him from doing it. What’s anyone going to do? Fine him? Rinse and repeat. The bullshit won’t end until the motherfucker is dead or in prison and only one of those things is ever going to happen.
At this point I’m cheering on McDonald’s to kill him by cholesterol with a big mac
Don’t forget the decades of amphetamine abuse. I’m honestly surprised his heart hasn’t popped yet.

Trump is going to be immortal in prison forever?
Feds are great at hitting the people they want to with financial crimes because there’s a paper trail.
