Former President Donald Trump must pay writer E. Jean Carroll over $83 million in damages for repeatedly defaming her, a jury found Friday.

The nine-person jury began deliberations in federal court in New York at 1:40 p.m. ET and reached a verdict in just under three hours.

      NYT reported $60 million back in August.

      Trump said his legal fees were close to $100 million while campaigning in Iowa in late October.

      The truth is that nobody really knows the hard total, though based on available information it seems like it could be upwards of $5 million per month on average.
