Suppress freedom of the press.

Trump seems intent on trying to silence critics with his favorite tactic: SUE!

Trump Sues The Des Moines Register, Escalating Threats Against the Media

The newspaper published a poll before the election that showed Donald Trump trailing Kamala Harris in Iowa.


Sounds like an idiotic lawsuit, but the purpose is not to win but to make it impossibly expensive for the newspaper to defend itself.

Yeh, Trump is a wannabe dictator.

In Mr. Trump’s own telling, winning his civil legal actions isn’t always the point.

Mr. Trump, who has often attacked journalists publicly for details in news accounts that he hasn’t liked, famously lost a libel case that he brought against the writer Timothy O’Brien over Mr. O’Brien’s description of Mr. Trump’s net worth as much less than he claimed it to be.

The case played out over the span of years. But during the 2016 election, Mr. Trump told The Washington Post that it was worth it, even with the loss.

“I spent a couple of bucks on legal fees, and they spent a whole lot more,” he said of Mr. O’Brien and his book publisher. “I did it to make his life miserable, which I’m happy about.”

Well, maybe some of them can feed the independents on the side. I am not looking forward to this.
