CNN Trump town hall — live: Trump refuses to admit 2020 loss and mocks E Jean Carroll to laughter from crowd
Donald Trump is appearing at a highly anticipated — and highly controversial — town hall event hosted by CNN tonight. The town hall kicked off in New Hampshire at 8pm and comes just one day after Mr Trump was found liable of sexually abusing and defaming writer E Jean Carroll in a New York civil trial. Mr Trump immediately railed against the jury’s decision — which ordered him to pay $5m in damages — calling it a “total disgrace”. Meanwhile, CNN has faced intense backlash and calls to boycott the network over its decision to host the former president who has repeatedly decried its reporting as “fake news”. While the town hall was condemned immediately after being announced last week, fury grew even stronger following Tuesday’s verdict as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez threw her weight behind fresh calls to cancel it. Michael Fanone, one of the Capitol Police officers injured on January 6 has also criticised the network. Neither CNN nor Trump showed any intention to call it off. Mr Trump is expected to face tough questioning from both discussion moderator Kaitlan Collins and the audience of Republican voters.

Trump ‘swears on his children’ he has not met E Jean Carroll as he attacks author after sex abuse verdict
A defiant former president Donald Trump on Wednesday told a CNN town hall audience that he has never met the woman who a New York jury said he sexually assaulted in a department store dressing room in the 1990s. Asked about the civil verdict against him in a civil suit brought by writer E Jean Carroll, Mr Trump claimed the former Elle advice columnist’s lawsuit was “election interference” and denied knowing her. “This woman I don’t know her. I never met her. I have no idea who she is,” he said in response to the query from moderator Kaitlan Collins. Mr Trump asked Collins if he could “swear by [his] children that he never assaulted Ms Carroll and called her allegations “a fake...made up story”. He also attacked the federal judge who oversaw the case, Lewis Kaplan, as “a horrible Clinton-appointed judge” who allowed Ms Carroll to “put everything in” as evidence over the objections of his legal team. “He allowed her to put everything in. He allowed us to put nothing,” he said.
