Nikki Haley: 'I absolutely trust' that jury that ordered Trump to pay E. Jean Carroll $83 million

In an interview with NBC's Kristin Welker, Haley had this to say about a New York jury awarding E. Jean Carroll a mighty $83.3 million for defamation in a secondary trial following an earlier one where a jury found no evidence of her initial claim that Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman's dressing room some time around thirty years ago, but did go with a sexual abuse verdict.

WELKER: What is unique about this case is that the jury has now ruled, they have found him liable of sexual abuse.

Do you not trust the jury and their findings, ambassador? HALEY: I absolutely trust the jury and I think that they made their decision based on the evidence, i just don't think that should take him off the ballot, I think the american people will take him off the ballot.

Welker shape-shifted to the older case of the jury finding Trump guilty of sexual abuse, attempting to pin Haley down as someone who condoned sexual abuse.

The initial question was about the jury award, not the earlier trial where the jury found no merit in any rape charge and then went with sexual abuse, which seemed a little questionable, too.

What wrecked her was her statement of trust in the jury - an urban jury of solid Trump-hating Democrats with a prosecutor and judge deep in the same leftist camp, presiding of what most voters see as a politicized trial.

Haley "Absolutely" trusts that jury? Why? Most of us can see something that doesn't look right here, a jury of leftists in a court of leftists, going where no post-presidency has gone before and setting the stage for the Latin Americanization of U.S. politics, where every ex-president needs to flee the country to avoid jailing by his opponents.
