E. Jean Carroll on Monday talked about what she plans to do with the $83.3 million former President Donald Trump was ordered to pay her in her defamation case.
"I don't want to waste money," Carroll said while on making an appearance on ABC's Good Morning America.
"I do have an idea. I'd like to give the money to something Donald Trump hates," she continued. "If it will cause him pain for something to give money to certain things — Perhaps a fund for the women who have been sexually assaulted by Donald Trump."

On Friday, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan ordered Trump to pay Carroll $7.3 in general damages plus $11 million for the reputational repair program. Jurors granted a separate award of $65 million in punitive damages.
During the interview, both Carroll and her lawyer Roberta Kaplan seemed confident the money would come through — "one way or the other."
Carroll later appeared on CNN, saying it was "terrifying" to have to face Trump in court, but once she did, she realized he "was nothing."
