The journalist has alleged Trump raped her in a dressing room in the 1990s. She sued him after the former president called her a liar
By trying to use this legal maneuver, Trump is essentially arguing that Carroll’s suit is an intimidation tactic, “as retribution for [his] truthful statements, and for the sole purpose of harassing, punishing, or otherwise maliciously inhibiting his free exercise of speech.” Trump also wants to argue that Carroll should pick up the tab for his legal fees.
Trump has done this before. He turned to New York’s anti-SLAPP statute in defending himself against formercontestant Summer Zervos’ defamation lawsuit against him. Zervos accused Trump of sexual misconduct; she sued him after he called her allegations lies which, she contended, wrongly smeared her reputation.
“Mr. Trump denies it ever happened and says various other things, and Ms. Carroll said it happened,” Kaplan said.
