According to Carroll, the two had a chance run-in at the store, where Trump was shopping for a gift for &#8220;a girl.&#8221; She said he asked for her advice, and the two shopped together before he pushed her into a dressing room and assaulted her. Trump and his legal team insist that Carroll&#8217;s allegations are fabricated, with the former president&#8217;s initial reaction including an accusation that Carroll was motivated by wanting to sell copies of her book.<\/p>\n<p>In an exclusive interview last month just after the jury delivered the verdict, Trump told Fox News Digital that he has &#8220;absolutely no idea who this woman is.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This verdict is a disgrace,&#8221; he told Fox News Digital. &#8220;It is a continuation of the greatest political witch hunt in history.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Carroll has a second defamation suit against Trump that will go to trial early next year.<\/p>\n<p><i>Fox News&#8217; Maria Paronich contributed to this report.<\/i>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trump-sues-e-jean-carroll-for-defamation\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trump-sues-e-jean-carroll-for-defamation <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former President Trump filed a lawsuit against E.
