NEW YORK (AP) — Questioned for a lawsuit, former President Donald Trump hurled insults and threatened to sue the columnist who accused him of raping her in a department store in the 1990s, according to excerpts of his testimony unsealed by a court on Friday.

Portions of his October deposition in a lawsuit filed by columnist E. Jean Carroll was released publicly after a federal judge rejected his lawyers’ request that it remained sealed.

“She said that I did something to her that never took place. There was no anything. I know nothing about this nut job,” he said, according to the transcript.

The excerpts reveal a contentious battle between Trump and a lawyer for Carroll who questioned him.

It is infuriating how people are constantly accusing him of wrongdoing, because nobody has higher integrity nor is as perfect as he is.

And to think this imbecile was the president. It just boggles my mind.

Reading his thoughts is like a train wreck - I couldn't stop reading them and now my head hurts from trying to figure out what the hell he was saying.
