You'd think he is busy with enough lawsuits...
Suing Stephanopoulos: He's done it again. Donald Trump filed yet another lawsuit against the news media late Monday, accusing ABC News and George Stephanopoulos of defamation over assertions the anchor made in a combative interview. In a "This Week" interview earlier this month, Stephanopoulos pressed Republican Rep. Nancy Mace, a rape survivor, over her continued support of Trump after a jury found he sexually abused E. Jean Carroll in 1996. Stephanopoulos asserted multiple times in the interview with Mace that Trump had "raped" Carroll. While a federal jury last year found that Trump had sexually abused Carroll, the jury did not find that she proved he had raped her. Dismissing a countersuit months later, however, the judge in the case concluded that the claim Trump raped Carroll was "substantially true." ABC News declined to comment on the lawsuit. That said, it goes without saying that Trump has a lengthy history filing meritless lawsuits against the press, which he regularly demonizes.
Do something positive.
