Former President Donald Trump intends to attend the start of the new E. Jean Carroll civil damages trial on Tuesday, according to two sources with direct knowledge of his plans.
Trump plans to travel from Des Moines, Iowa, to New York City following the state’s caucuses that NBC News projected he won on Monday night, another source familiar with his travel plans said.
The trial centers on a defamation case brought by Carroll, a magazine writer who accused the former president of raping her in the 1990s, then defaming her when she went public with her allegations.
