Donald Trump has claimed that allegations made against him by E. Jean Carroll were a "totally made-up story," prompting suggestions by legal analysts that the former president could open himself up to a further defamation lawsuit.

Carroll filed a lawsuit against Trump in 2019, claiming the former president accused her of lying when she came forward with sexual assault allegations against him. The same year, she had alleged Trump raped her in a department store dressing room in the mid-1990s.

A jury in a civil trial in May 2023 found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation in another defamation case that Carroll filed in 2022. The jury awarded Carroll $5 million.

Trump has denied any wrongdoing in both lawsuits and claimed that they are politically motivated to damage his run for the presidency. He continued to deny ever knowing Carroll throughout a trial in January to determine how much he would pay in damages from the 2019 lawsuit
