My guess is that Trump will appeal.anyone know next steps as this plays out? Hope she can have the money quickly...
That's all he ever does is appeal all rulings he does not like and so far it has worked for him all these yearsMy guess is that Trump will appeal.

I think it might work in this case because not for a second do I believe E. Jean Carroll wasn't a consenting adult to his advances. There are two lawsuits against Trump that I do not support because I believe they are politically motivated, and this is one of them.That's all he ever does is appeal all rulings he does not like and so far it has worked for him all these years
Absolutely trueHe does love to waste the courts time and other people’s money. IMO

Fortunately, the jurors disagreed with you.I think it might work in this case because not for a second do I believe E. Jean Carroll wasn't a consenting adult to his advances.

Right. I think the appeal will be over the excessive amount of damages.Appeals are over legal issues not factual ones.
She’s a total hero. I can’t imagine the bravery is takes for these women to face him and his more dedicated followers in the public forum. They quite literally are putting their lives at risk. MOOFortunately, the jurors disagreed with you.
She's a SA victim. There was no consent on her part.
IMO.

It was a civil trial, not a criminal trial.Owning an unregistered weapon, for which she has never been charged, doesn't negate her status as a crime victim. Call it whatever name you like, the jury found him liable for a crime against her and subsequent defamation. You may think her a liar, that's your prerogative. But a jury didn't.

Did Donald Trump rape E. Jean Carroll? Here's what a jury and judge said.
Nine jurors found Donald Trump had sexually abused E. Jean Carroll, but they didn't call it "rape." Here's why a judge said that word still applies.www.usatoday.com
The civil jury of 9 people found him liable. They were a civil jury, not a criminal jury and I do believe Trump will win on appeal because of the Judge's rulings.And the OP said that a jury found him liable for a crime against her and defamation. It was a civil trial, but the jury still ruled.
Judge did the right thing. He went instructed the jury to fine the former president an amount that will stop the defamation. The jury went from the $30 millions to the $80 millions. He caused that himself by continuing the defamation.Right. I think the appeal will be over the excessive amount of damages.

So what are the chances Trump will be successful with this appeal? pretty slim. But does it matter anymore? all he does is appeal all of the lawsuits and judgments against him and it works for him: Because he has so much money he has used our hot mess of a court system to great advantage. It is nauseating."Attorneys for former President Donald Trump will appear before a federal appeals panel on Friday to argue that a $5 million judgment finding him liable for sexually abusing and defaming the writer E. Jean Carroll was "unjust" and should be thrown out.
In his appeal of the first judgment, which Trump's attorneys are arguing Friday, they claimed the judge issued "flawed and prejudicial evidentiary rulings." "
