Trump demanded

Trump wants her to give him money. Of course he does.

Trump on Tuesday demanded that writer E. Jean Carroll return the $5.6 million that a judge ordered him to pay her, according to reports.

The president’s legal team was seeking an emergency injunction to order Carroll to give Trump back the payment that was issued on July 9 by a court-controlled escrow account, The Independent reported. Trump and his team have hoped that the Supreme Court could “grant him a legal Hail Mary and reverse the judgment, sending the money back to him.”

A federal jury found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation.

The money is not on its way back to him.

    How is this possible? The Supreme Court already rejected Trump’s appeal of the first E Jean Carroll case. Because Trump was out of appeals, the NY court paid her the $5.6 million that it was holding in escrow. By what right does he demand she return it?

    He doesn’t wait for a right before he demands something.
