EXCLUSIVE: President Trump’s re-election campaign filed a libel lawsuit against CNN on Friday for publishing “false and defamatory” statements about seeking Russia’s help in the 2020 election.

"The complaint alleges CNN was aware of the falsity at the time it published them but did so for the intentional purpose of hurting the campaign while misleading its own readers in the process... the campaign filed this lawsuit against CNN and the preceding suits against The New York Times and The Washington Post to hold the publishers accountable for their reckless false reporting and also to establish the truth,” Senior Legal Adviser to Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. Jenna Ellis told Fox News.

This would be impactful if it wasn’t so tired. People are on to Trump’s BS. No one cares about baseless lawsuits and phony investigations anymore.

The Trump campaign suing news media for defamation, coming from the people that are supporting a birther that’s one for the record book.

It will be impactful when CNN has to show up in court and explain their lies.

They asked for a retraction first, when CNN didn't go for that, along came the lawsuit. CNN made a lot of claims about Trump and Russia at a certain point even the news media has to show some type of proof. It will be interesting to see where this one goes. It might have given Trump less ammunition if they just ran some small retraction concerning Russia.

The Trump campaign organization will file a motion to dismiss. They only wanted the headline. They do NOT want to undergo 'discovery'.
