Episode Details

Trump’s legal team is taking his civil lawsuit battle to the Supreme Court, challenging an $83.3 million jury verdict from the E. Jean Carroll sexual assault case — arguing that such a ruling could chill presidential leadership. After two trials and appeals court affirmations, Trump claims future presidents might avoid action for fear of lawsuits, citing a recent Supreme Court precedent on official acts.

Now, the Supreme Court must decide whether to intervene — a move that could reshape how presidential conduct is treated in civil law.
