Less than two weeks after paying E. Jean Carroll $5.6 million tied to a civil sexual abuse and defamation case, President Donald Trump is asking for the money back.

Trump’s legal team is seeking an emergency injunction that would force Carroll to return the amount she was paid following a judge’s July 8 ruling that ordered the payment process to begin, according to The Independent.

    Goddammit motherfucker just fucking die! It’s fucking pennies compared to what he is stealing from us tax payers every fucking day. Let it go you fucking pedophile! He should be going to prison not fighting to still overturn his lose in 2020 and fighting over this. He rapes a woman and allowed to walk free only having to pay 5 million. Yet he got to keep fighting her over this.

      Trump has this utterly fundamental belief that you’re either a “winner” or a “loser.” The moment you give something they want, that makes them the winner and therefore you are the loser. He doesn’t care about the numbers, he just cares about whether he’s winning.

        I would bet that he’s got his father’s voice in his head, telling him what a loser he is a dozen times a day.

        A lot of us have family trauma. Most of us don’t try to burn down the entire world because of it.

        How different do you think things would be if someone had gotten this man into therapy in the '80s or '90s?
