On Monday, the Republican presidential candidate shared a lengthy rant on his Truth Social platform, where he attacked a number of his adversaries.

At one point, he took aim at Carroll, who has won two defamation lawsuits against him in the past year which resulted in Trump being ordered to pay her millions in damages.

He is currently attempting to appeal both cases.

The former president's remarks got the attention of Carroll's attorney, Robert Kaplan, who said another suit might be on the way.

"We have said several times since the last jury verdict in January that all options were on the table," Kaplan told New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman.

"And that remains true today – all options are on the table."

Trump is facing a handful of legal battles that could threaten his re-election effort. The former president has spent millions in legal fees, raising alarms about his net worth and how long he can stay financially afloat.

This week, Trump is expected to receive a verdict in his separate hush money criminal trial in New York, which he could potentially receive jail time for.
