The order by Judge Lewis A. Kaplan of Federal District Court came over Mr. Trump’s objections. He had asked the judge to stop Ms. Carroll’s defamation lawsuit since, he said, he could not have defamed her in 2019 when he denied her allegation of a decades-old rape. That’s because, Mr. Trump said, a jury in a separate case recently found him liable only for sexually abusing Ms. Carroll, and not for raping her, as she had long insisted. Mr. Trump’s CNN diatribe against Ms. Carroll, 79, followed a civil jury’s verdict last month finding Mr. Trump, 76, liable in the separate case for sexually abusing Ms. Carroll in the mid-1990s. Mr. Trump, in response to questions from the CNN moderator, called Ms. Carroll a “wack job,” said that her claim of a decades-old assault was “fake” and a “made-up story” and that her civil trial was “a rigged deal.”

For many political pundits and politicians, his observations on the war in Ukraine were no exception. Asa Hutchinson, who is challenging Trump for the 2024 nomination, declared that “Trump reminded everyone tonight of his support of Russia and his willingness to sell out Ukraine. The major difference between the Biden administration and Trump on the Ukraine question seems to be not whether talks should happen, but when. Another point Trump gets right is the vast disparity between the US and its European allies on the issue of assistance to Ukraine, even if his grossly exaggerates the amount of US aid.

CNN —CNN hosted a town hall with 2024 Republican presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump on Wednesday night in New Hampshire. 2020 ElectionJust minutes after the town hall began, Trump claimed the 2020 election was “rigged.”Facts First: This is Trump’s regular lie. Trump claimed Wednesday that he got gas prices down to $1.87 – and “even lower” – but they increased to $7, $8 or even $9 under Biden.

CNN —Former President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign is pursuing a strategy of expanding his appeal by reaching out to audiences beyond friendly conservative media outlets, multiple advisers familiar with the strategy said, including a CNN town hall this week. He’s also scaling back larger rallies, a Trump campaign trademark, for more intimate campaign settings and retail stops that allow the former president to engage with voters. Trump’s team also sees the town hall has an opportunity to draw a contrast with Florida Gov. “Trump is already prepared,” one source told CNN, saying the goal for the town hall is to amplify his core message. He ignored the rulings of dozens of courts.”Ongoing investigationsTrump’s town hall also comes as he faces several legal hurdles.
Notably, Trump refused to plant a flag in the sand on a potential federal abortion ban. Trump is vague on federal abortion banTrump repeatedly ducked questions about whether he would sign into law a federal abortion ban, as well as after how many weeks into a pregnancy abortion should be made illegal. He touted the Supreme Court’s decision last year to overturn Roe v. Wade’s federal abortion rights as “such a great victory” – and one made possible by his appointment of three conservative justices. But Trump also recognized splits within the GOP over whether to impose a federal abortion ban, and what the conditions of such a ban should be. “We now have a great negotiating ability, and I think we’re going to be able to get something done,” Trump said.
