On Tuesday, we reported on E. Jean Carroll’s vulgar appearance on Rachel Maddow, where she boasted about how she was planning to spend Donald Trump’s money on “shopping,” Megyn Kelly believes secured his election victory.
President Trump was ordered to pay $83.3 million in a civil defamation trial for comments regarding the alleged incident at the Bergdorf Goodman department store dressing room in Manhattan in the 1990s.
Maddow asked E. Jean Carroll what she would do with “Trump’s money” to help “women’s rights.”
Carroll responded by saying she will “go shopping, get completely new wardrobes, new shoes…Rachel, what do you want, penthouse.”
Here’s a recap:

Carroll says she and Maddow will "go shopping, get completely new wardrobes, new shoes…Rachel, what do you want, penthouse?"

Carroll’s lawyer attempted damage control, saying, “That’s a joke,” as the women continued to cackle.
The reply showed how depraved the anti-Trump left is and was made worse by Maddow and the guests joining in.
That reaction was received poorly online.
RedState reported:
As our sister site Townhall noted, when Carroll was interviewed by ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on “Good Morning America,” she said that she was going to use the money on “something Donald Trump hates.” She then suggested she would create a “fund for the women who have been sexually assaulted by Donald Trump.”…
“I have such, such great ideas for all the good I’m going to do with this money,” she declared to Maddow. “First thing, you and I are going to go shopping. We’re going to get completely new wardrobes, new shoes.”…
That reaction was not received well by many and some thought it might redound to the benefit of former President Donald Trump when you see such comments and laughter.
Megyn Kelly believes they have made a fatal mistake and have essentially handed him the election victory.
Here’s Megyn’s tweet:
This is the kind of clip that could win Trump the election. https://t.co/1tLsBAcWYO

Media critic Joe Concha also chimed in:
If you needed any more proof this whole suit and verdict was a crock, here it is.

And of course, Maddow still soaks it all up while not realizing how damaging this is. https://t.co/jrXBrP2XN0
