Thanks to you at home for joining us this hour. It's really good to have you here with us tonight.

0:03.7

So this time last week, if you've been watching the show on Monday nights when I'm here,

0:09.1

you might have seen we had E. Jean Carroll here live on the show,

0:13.6

along with her attorney, Roberta Kaplan. E. Jean Carroll and Robbie Kaplan were here live on the

0:19.6

show last week, and the immediate wake of that remarkable court ruling, in which a jury held

0:27.0

unanimously that former president Donald Trump had sexually abused E. Jean Carroll,

0:33.1

1:46.3

your liar, the exact same things the jury held him liable for the day before he did again the next day

1:51.6

on National Television. Is that just the way it has to be? Do you think that could actually

could be actionable if you were to file another suit? Would it work the same way? So it's definitely

2:02.0

actionable. He's not going to get away with it another time. It's unprecedented for a person to
