Trump sues Iowa newspaper over election poll claiming Harris’s lead
Des Moines Register and pollster Ann Selzer accused of consumer fraud and ‘election interference’ in lawsuit
Summary
Donald Trump has sued the Des Moines Register and pollster J Ann Selzer, alleging consumer fraud and "election interference" over a November poll showing Kamala Harris leading him in Iowa by three points.
Trump, who ultimately won the state by 13 points, claims the poll was intentionally misleading and seeks damages and restrictions on the newspaper’s polling practices.
Gannett, the paper’s parent company, dismissed the lawsuit as baseless.
The suit adds to Trump’s ongoing legal actions against media outlets, including CBS News, Simon & Schuster, and Bob Woodward, over similar allegations.
This shows he has no intentions in honoring the constitution. Biden should take steps and arrest trump now and anyone else suspected to be working with Putin. This may be the moment we can change the future but we will instead hand the keys to a fascist and wonder what went wrong.
If that was gonna happen, Merrick Garland wouldn't have sat on his thumbs for the past 4 years
This clown supposedly cares about "consumer fraud" after 4 years lying about the results of the 2020 election
What the fuck even is this lawsuit?
Trump’s feels were hurt and he’s going to spend the next four years going ballistic on anyone that he thinks wronged him. And the legal system has demonstrated no willingness to enforce the law when he’s concerned. So it will end up working in his favor.
Heck, if ABC’s recent capitulation is anything to go by, everyone will invariably bend the knee. Sadly, it’s not any more complicated than that. Fascist toddler has a temper tantrum, everyone else acquiesces.
The blueprint to control the press and silence dissent for the foreseeable future.
ABC capitulated on the bullshit lawsuit he filed against them, so now he's targeting other organizations.
It's the dismantling of the free press, one of the things that is critically important for a healthy democracy.
It's extortion
