    Donations to Dirty Donnie's slush fund must be down. He needs to keep fleecing his rubes.

    Is he asking for donations is rubbles ?

    It is ALREADY a 100% Certainty that the entire "lawsuit" will be laughed out of court...
    But yeah, just more free money for Trump...

    Um, neither of whom have been arrested nor charged. As typical, the left has issues distinguishing the difference.

    The CNN guy is innocent until proven guilty to the same degree that Trump and Gaetz are. Catch up. This ain't complicated. As usual, nothing offends Trumpists more than facts.

    The "CNN guy" was arrested and charged. Can you show me where either Trump and Gaetz were arrested and charge for nuddling some minors? BTW, John Griffin (CNN guy) is still in jail.

    As I stated before, Democrats really have an inability to distinguish the difference between an accusation and an actual crime... I guess that is why they never charged Trump with an actual crime in ANY instance... because they know not what an accusation and an actual crime is...

    Which means none of them have been convicted.

    And you've just demonstrated that you are about as good at that as Democrats are.

    Trump still has multiple criminal investigations looking into him. But, no, like your CNN guy, he hasn't been convicted yet. Glad we're caught up. Anything else you need explained?

    The only thing you've explained is none have been convicted, yet, you accused Trump and Gaetz of noodling some minors while John Griffin has literally been arrested and charged for doing just that.

    Maybe you are starting to realize that just maybe... there is a difference of being accused, arrested and charged versus merely being accused. Plenty of malicious a-holes that accuse people for the mere prospect that they are hate filled POS's... Doesn't mean there is any merit to their claims. If there was, there would surely be an arrest warrant and charges against the suspect.

    No. Please try reading. If that is too much to ask for, then find a different hobby. I never accused Trump or Gaetz of any such thing. I said they, like your CNN guy, WERE ACCUSED. This is an objective fact. All three have been accused. None have been convicted. Let me know if I need to type any slower, but I honestly don't know how to dumb it down any more than that.

    Yeah, buddy, that's why convictions are a thing. And please don't pretend that you are going to just sit back and agree if Trump is convicted. No one buys that bull ****. If Trump is convicted or even charged, you are going to portray him as a victim. You are projecting your hypocrisy onto others.

    And yet you keep missing the text were I clearly typed that only 1 of them, CNN guy, has been charged. Again, a distinct difference between the different accusations. Let me know if that isn't setting in?

    I'll wait patiently with bated breathe for those charges to come. You all have been accusing now 6 years and have yet to place ONE charge.

    In a simple word no. He cannot say "it is his belief that CNN is lying." He has to have evidence that CNN did lie, at least once and knew that it lied. He does not have that, which is why he does not have a chance.

    It's all about campaign fundraising money for his PAC. Nothing else. That is the only reason why he is doing this.

    You can blame Trump here, perhaps legitimately. But distrust of liberal media has been a standard talking point for republicans for a long time. Similar strategies are used by Democrats. AKA find what gets people hot and fundraise off of it.

    To me, its kind of sad. Both Trump and CNN used to generate a lot of views. They still do, but not as much. Both of them would love to revive the old rivalry and get everyone fired up, but people have moved on a bit.
