Trump back in court for damages phase of defamation case

Fresh off his win in Iowa, former President Trump spent time in a New York courtroom. The trial that started Tuesday will decide how much he owes writer E. Jean Carroll for defaming her while he was president. Trump was already found liable for sexually abusing Carroll in the 1990s and then lying about her years later. William Brangham was in the courtroom and reports from New York.
