Investigative News Article: Famed US Lawyer Accuses Donald Trump of Using Coded Insult
In a shocking revelation, renowned US lawyer Roberta Kaplan has accused former president Donald Trump of using a coded version of the C-word against her. Kaplan, an expert in commercial litigation and public interest matters, recently represented magazine columnist E. Jean Carroll in her defamation case against Trump. The jury in the case took just three hours to decide that the ex-president must pay Carroll a staggering $83.3 million for defaming her.
Carroll’s payout includes $18.3 million in compensation and $65 million in punitive retribution over defamatory statements made by Trump. This comes in addition to an earlier award of $5 million that Trump was ordered to pay after being found liable for sexually abusing Carroll. The verdict was a resounding victory for Carroll and a blow to Trump, who stormed out of the Manhattan courtroom before the decision was read.
Following the verdict, Trump took to the Truth Social app to express his disagreement with the decision, calling it “absolutely ridiculous” and vowing to appeal. However, it is Kaplan’s accusation against Trump that has now taken center stage.
Kaplan, who is openly lesbian and married to her wife Rachel Lavine, claims that Trump directed a derogatory remark at her after a deposition in an unrelated case at his Mar-a-Lago resort. The incident allegedly occurred before the E. Jean Carroll case took place. According to Kaplan, Trump’s attorneys ensured that the deposition was off the record before he made the remark.
The phrase used by Trump, “See you next Tuesday,” is a well-known code for the derogatory insult “c**t.” Kaplan, however, admitted that she had not understood the meaning of the comment at the time. She recounted her response on the George Conway Explains It All podcast, saying, “I, thank God, had no idea what that meant, so I said to him, ‘What are you talking about? I’m coming back on Wednesday.’ Literally, it was an honest answer. I had no idea what he’s talking about.”
It was only later, while driving away from Trump’s property, that Kaplan’s colleagues explained the meaning of the remark to her. The revelation left her shocked and disappointed. Co-host Sarah Longwell on the podcast described Trump’s comment as a “teenage boy-level joke,” to which Kaplan responded, “Had I known, I for sure would have gotten angry… I looked like I was being above it all, which I wasn’t. I just did not know.”
But the story doesn’t end there. Kaplan went on to reveal another incident from that day involving Trump’s temper tantrum. She claimed that when his legal team offered to provide lunch for her and her associates, Trump became furious and threw a pile of documents across the table before storming out of the room.
The accusation made by Kaplan sheds further light on Trump’s behavior and demeanor during legal proceedings. It raises questions about his professionalism and respect for others, particularly those who oppose him.
As the legal battles continue to unfold, it remains to be seen how Trump will respond to these allegations. The revelations made by Kaplan add another layer of complexity to an already contentious relationship between the former president and the legal community. For now, the focus remains on holding Trump accountable for his actions and ensuring justice for E. Jean Carroll.
In conclusion, renowned lawyer Roberta Kaplan has accused Donald Trump of using a coded version of the C-word against her. These allegations come in the aftermath of the defamation case brought by E. Jean Carroll, in which Trump was ordered to pay a substantial sum for defaming her. Kaplan’s accusation sheds light on Trump’s behavior and raises further questions about his professionalism. As this story continues to unfold, the focus remains on seeking justice and holding Trump accountable for his actions.
