Trump loses it after Supreme Court rejects his sexual abuse appeal: 'Does not count!'

President Donald Trump erupted Monday after his appeal of a sexual abuse verdict against him was rejected by the Supreme Court moments earlier, calling the court’s decision “surprising” while vowing to “continue the fight” against the decision.

“Surprisingly, the Supreme Court declined to ‘review’ a Fake Case brought against me by a woman I never met (Decades old celebrity photo line, standing with her husband, does not count!),” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

“I will continue the fight against this Weaponization and Lawfare Case against me, including the ridiculous claim of Defamation, with all of my power and strength. This Case is really against the United States of America, and all it stands for, and should never be allowed to happen to another President, or Candidate to be!”

In 2023, a civil court found Trump liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll in the 1990s. He was ordered to pay an $83 million judgement that the president’s legal team has tried to have overturned, including by submitting false information to the Supreme Court.

In his online outburst, Trump also blamed a New York law for his predicament, one he said was explicitly designed to target him.

“New York State created a Law, for an instant speck of time, going back many decades, in order to wrongfully ‘nab’ me,” Trump wrote. ”It was tailormade, and this Injustice cannot be allowed to stand! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
