For this episode of Trump's Trials, NPR's Juana Summers speaks to NPR's Andrea Bernstein.

Former President Donald Trump was back in court on Thursday to testify in the second civil defamation damages trial brought by writer E. Jean Carroll. The jury in a separate civil trial last year awarded Carroll $5 million, finding Trump sexually abused and defamed her. Trump spoke briefly on the stand on Thursday, saying the allegations were false.

Topics include:
- Defense resting its case
- Trump's testimony
- Outcome predictions
