Dementia Don evidently wants his sexual assault of E. Jean Carroll to stay in the headlines and is suing ABC News and George Stephanopoulos for defamation, claiming he only finger-raped Carroll and did not penis rape her.
And this comes despite the judge in the case having concluded that the claim Trump raped Carroll was “substantially true.”
“Indeed, the jury’s verdict in Carroll II establishes, as against Mr Trump, the fact that
Mr Trump ‘raped her’, albeit digitally rather than with his penis. Thus, it establishes against him the substantial truth of Ms Carroll’s ‘rape’ accusations,” Judge Lewis Kaplan wrote.
In pre-Trump Cult America, a judge confirming that Trump had, indeed, raped Carroll would have ended a politician's career forever but the cult gobbles up that sh!t with whipped cream.

Oh, I think it's actually a rather brilliant move.
Trump knows that voters would generally prefer that their candidate not have committed sexual assault. So he desperately wants to keep calling Carroll a liar. But he can't do that, because he runs the risk of millions of dollars more damages if he does.
So this lawsuit is perfect. Instead of calling Carroll a liar, he's calling Stephanopoulos a liar. That allows him to deny everything and avoid any more liability.
Even better, it gives him a response when (or if) he gets confronted with questions about assaulting Carroll. If in an interview or debate the topic comes up, he will gesture to the litigation as a reason he can't answer questions. "As you know, we're suing Stephanopoulos over this, very good lawsuit, the best, because of his lies about this, and so I can't comment further, except to say that his comments were lies and we'll win in court." It's an echo of his tax return dodge ("I can't release because I'm being audited"), and let's him move to the next question.

How is he going to pay his lawyers? No one will put up a bond for his current fines/penalties, and he says he can't afford to pay out of pocket. What lawyer would even take on a client that isn't going to be able to pay them?

Me too, The guy who “tells it like it is” and “doesn’t back down” has found a way to avoid the questions, not tell it like it is, and back down. And his supporters will nod their heads and say “ayup.”

Campaign contributions. Or not pay them very much. He's never lacked for having some legal representation - he just doesn't have very good legal representation. But you can usually find some lawyer who's willing to take on a high-profile case that may not yield a lot of direct fees, but will yield some amount of publicity they can benefit from.
While having bad lawyers was catastrophic for Trump in the Carroll and NY fraud suits, the stakes are vastly lower here. The point of this lawsuit almost certainly isn't to win against ABC - or even to get the move the case along. All Trump needs is for the case to exist and just sit out there. And that's something that can be done with even mediocre lawyers, and without a lot of fees.

Does anyone really believe Trump was NOT comment? He can't seem to help himself. His lawyers have a history of having difficulties controlling him.

here instead of over
there. As long as he keeps saying that
Stephanopoulos is a lying scumbag, and not that
Carroll is a lying scumbag, he's in good shape.

And many Trumpers think Donnie is a good Christian.
And they think that Clinton getting a blow job is worse than Trump shoving a woman into a dressing room and literally grabbing her by the pussy. By his own admission something he said he could do because he was a celebrity. Think how many women have voted for this degenerate misogynist!

Utterly unbelievable that this ass got elected the first time and may get elected again. Insane.
