“A federal appeals court on Wednesday shot down former President Donald Trump’s attempt to use presidential immunity in the upcoming E. Jean Carroll defamation trial, finding he’d waited too long to raise the defense,” CNBC reports.
“Trump had argued he couldn’t be sued for the 2019 comments he made about the writer and her sexual assault claims against him because he was president at the time he made them and, he contended, they related to his duties because he needed to speak out and assure the public her accusations were untrue.”
