Donald Trump says he has brought a $15bn lawsuit against the New York Times, alleging defamation and libel.

In a social media post late on Monday, the US president accused the newspaper of a “decades long method of lying about your Favorite President (ME!), my family, business, the America First Movement, MAGA, and our Nation as a whole”.

The president singled out the New York Times endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election and said the paper had become a “virtual ‘mouthpiece’ for the Radical Left Democrat Party.”


So he's suing them because they endorsed Harris?? Lol.
 
15 billion?
He'll settle for 7 million to his yet to exist library fund though.

🥰
No Hatuey, $7 million would act as a form of weakness. He'd only settle for $15 million in hopes that his supporters get confused with letters.

Does this mean anyone can sue Fox News for being a mouthpiece for the republican party? Why not? Didn't they endorse Trump in the last three elections?
I think we should do a class action and sue for $100Bn.

Cankles is so thin skinned.
 
We shouldn't compare him to Hitler because Hitler never tried to crush the media.

Plenty of world leaders have attempted to 'crush the media'. Why not compare Trump to them instead of the guy who instigated the biggest genocide in history? You really think Hitler is a better comparison than Bolsonaro or Orban?

Ot Putin?

Well Putin is way better comparison than Hitler!! Still not as accurate as comparing him to Bolsonaro or Orban though.

Comparing Trump to Hitler is as dumb as comparing Obama to Stalin.

No, it really isn't. Nowhere close to the same.

I wish this scum bag would just go away.

Yes it is. Neither Trump or Biden have committed genocide against millions of people. Neither Trump or Biden have created a totalitarian regime were political opponents are rounded up, tortured and murdered.

Trump is on the same level as Bolsonaro and Orban, not Hitler.

I think an early Hitler is the exact right comparison.

It's not always about his actions, but more about his wishes. The comparisons are based on the things Hitler did and spoke. In Trump's case, they are mostly about what he wants to do. Using Bolsonaro, Orban or Putin are also great comparisons. Even Kim Jong Un would work. I think Orban fits best. Orban helped them write Project 2025 and they are implementing it as we speak.

Trump is currently supporting the genocide in Gaza where tens of thousands have been killed, and millions are being starved. Trump can stop this tomorrow. He refuses to.
 
good


if the NY Times did nothing wrong, they'll be found innocent. I think we all know lying liberal media is guilty of defamation often

If he's basing the suit on The Times supporting democrats and endorsing Harris, the suit will never see the light of day. It will be laughed out of judge's chambers and never see a court room.
