Summary

Donald Trump amended his lawsuit against CBS, now alleging that a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris unfairly diverted viewers from his Truth Social platform.

He claims CBS’ edits misled the public, boosting Harris while harming his media business, and seeks $20 billion in damages. CBS argues its edits were standard and protected by the First Amendment.

Legal experts view the case as weak, but it coincides with Paramount Global’s regulatory review, leading to reported settlement talks.

The FCC has also opened an inquiry into CBS’ editing decisions.

    He won due to low voter turnout and voter suppression. A win is still a win.

      I mean I call that cheating. But sure.

      Trump on Elon Musk: “He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide.”

        That would only work if I believed anything he said.

      Actually, Harris got more votes than Biden in most of the key swing states (the ones that actually matter). Trump did not win because of low turnout, quite the opposite. Even more people voted for him in those setting states than in 2020.

      I’d still be pretty amazed if there wasn’t even more nefarious voting fraud that happened.

      He won because his opponents caved and gave him the win before bedtime on election night.
