Internet mocks Trump for throwing a trantrum after his lawyer offered lunch to Roberta Kaplan's legal team

PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: Roberta Kaplan, E Jean Carroll’s attorney, has claimed that former President Donald Trump stormed out of a Mar-a-Lago deposition after learning that his lawyers had agreed to buy her lunch and flung papers across the table.

Kaplan appeared in an episode of the podcast ‘George Conway Explains it All (to Sarah Longwell)’ recorded Thursday, February 1, where she also revealed that Trump raged at Alina Habba, the fiery lawyer who has represented him in his New York trials, for being accommodating to her legal team.

Last week, Kaplan won another legal battle against the 77-year-old Republican presidential frontrunner when a jury ordered him to pay Carroll $83.3 million in defamation damages.

The lawsuit centered around the former president accusing Carroll of lying and saying he never met her after she accused him of sexually assaulting her in the 1990s, per a report by DailyMail.

What did Roberta Kaplan divulge on her podcast appearance?

Roberta Kaplan, prior to winning a staggering $83.3 million for the E. Jean Carroll defamation trial last week, had visited Mar-a-Lago previously with the intention of deposing Trump as part of another lawsuit alleging former president's involvement in a fraudulent marketing company.

Although the case was dismissed by a federal judge last month, Kaplan recalled her experience dealing with Trump at that time revealing all the behind-the-scenes of the meeting during her podcast appearance.

Kaplan told longtime Trump critic George Conway that she declined the former president's request to work through a lunch break because he considered the deposition a “waste of time.”

Kaplan shared with Conway, “And then you could kind of see the wheel spinning in his brain. You could really almost see it. And he said, ‘Well, you’re here in Mar-a-Lago. What do you think you’re going to do for lunch? Where are you going to get lunch?'”

Kaplan stated that she told Trump that his attorneys had “graciously offered to provide” lunch for her and her team.

“At which point there was a huge pile of documents, exhibits, sitting in front of him, and he took the pile and he just threw it across the table. And stormed out of the room,” Kaplan remarked.

Trump then yelled at Habba for offering lunch to opposition lawyers, according to Kaplan.

Kaplan added, “He really yelled at Alina for that. He was so mad at Alina.”

At the concluding stages of the deposition, Kaplan recounted a peculiar interaction with the former president, where he made a comment that could be interpreted as a derogatory term for women.

Specifically, Trump had said "See you next Tuesday," which is often used as an acronym for this derogatory term.

Kaplan noted that the remark seemed premeditated. She returned to the room and informed them that she was done asking questions.

At this point, the other party requested to go off the record, and it was then that Trump looked at Kaplan and uttered the remark in question.

At first, Kaplan was confused because their next meeting was scheduled for Wednesday. She likened the remark to a joke that "teenage boys would come up with."

“I wasn’t in on the joke, so I had no idea. Then we get into the car and my colleagues are like, ‘Robbie, do you know what that means?’ And I’m like, ‘No, what are you talking about?’ They tell me and I’m like, oh my God, thank God I didn’t know because had I known, I for sure would have gotten angry,” she said on the podcast.
