He’ll fade, but I doubt Sherrod’s lawyers will be the ones to take him down. Libel law in the US heavily favors the defendant. Sherrod will face a very steep climb.

Yes, but AB’s own words and actions coupled with a very clear attempt to smear and announcing before hand that he was looking to smear will not go well for him. In front of any jury you have a grandmotherly hard working lady who really helped a Second World War veteran after he had been shitty to her - and he goes to bat for her now - vs. a fat egomanical braggart who bragged about taking her down with a false story.

AB doesn’t have a prayer if it goes to any civilized jury. Of course that is why he tried so hard to get the trial moved from DC.
