Trump Columnist Lawsuit

They also plan on playing excerpts of a sworn deposition that Trump gave in connection with Carroll's lawsuit, as well as a the 2005 “Access Hollywood” tape in which Trump boasted about grabbing women’s genitals.

“She became so flooded with memories, feelings, a sense of panic, that she actually lost her capacity to speak,” Lebowitz said.
