Former President Donald Trump took the witness stand in a defamation trial in New York City on Thursday and briefly defended claims he has made about E. Jean Carroll, a writer who accused him in 2019 of raping her three decades ago.
Trump was on the witness stand for just three minutes. He testified that “100% yes” he stood by his prior deposition in the case, and he said he publicly denied Carroll’s allegations against him because he wanted to defend himself, according to Politico.
