Donald Trump's niece, Mary Trump, wrote that the former president had "one of the worst days" in Donald's life after a federal jury ordered him to pay $83.3 million in damages to writer E. Jean Carroll in her defamation lawsuit against him. Mary Trump noted that it marked a rare occasion where Donald faced repercussions for his actions, which typically go unpunished due to his lack of self-control. The award includes $7.3 million in compensatory damages, $11 million for reputation restoration, and $65 million in punitive damages.
