Ex-President Donald Trump called his rape accuser E. Jean Carroll ‘mentally sick’ and a ‘nut job,’ according to a newly unsealed deposition.
According to the transcript, Trump said under oath: ‘She said that I did something to her that never took place. There was no anything. I know nothing about this nut job.’
The deposition occurred in October 2022. In another section, the 2024 presidential candidate said: ‘I know nothing about her. I think she’s sick, mentally sick.’ Trump went on to say that his accuser was ‘not his type.’
The release of excerpts from the deposition came the same day as federal Judge Lewis A. Kaplan also refused a request by Trump’s lawyers to toss out two lawsuits by Carroll alleging defamation and rape. An April trial is planned.
In releasing the transcript, Kaplan called Trump’s legal team’s arguments to keep the sealed as ‘entirely baseless.’

Trump said the encounter with Carroll in the mid-1990s at an upscale Manhattan department store never happened.
In his daylong testimony, he repeatedly attack Carroll depiction of Trump as a rapist.
Trump said he knew it wasn’t ‘politically correct’ to say ‘she’s not my type’ when he responded to claims shortly after Carroll’s 2019 book was published, and the writer alleged that she was attacked by Trump in a dressing room after a chance encounter with him in an upscale Manhattan department store in late 1995 or early 1996.
During his time as president, Trump attacked Carroll repeatedly and alleged that her claims were made up as a means to sell a book.
