I mean, seriously, can you believe this guy? President Donald Trump is suing CBS News over a “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris, and now the network’s parent company, Paramount, is fighting back. Because, you know, editing interviews is not a thing, right? I guess Trump thinks he’s the only one who can fake news.
But, anyway, Paramount filed two motions to dismiss the lawsuit, saying it’s an “affront to the First Amendment” (nice try, Trump). And, let’s be real, $20 billion in damages? That’s just greed at its finest. I mean, what’s next? Suing the coffee shop for not making his coffee strong enough?
And, by the way, have you seen Trump’s Truth Social posts? The man is like a broken record, repeating the same old lies over and over. “Election changing ‘stuff,'” really? More like “election changing tantrums” am I right? But, I guess that’s what happens when you’re a sore loser.
Now, I know what you’re thinking: “What about the facts?” Well, let me tell you, CBS News has been denying Trump’s allegations left and right. And, honestly, who needs facts when you have alternative facts, right? But, I digress. The point is, this lawsuit is a joke, and Trump needs to get over himself.
But, hey, at least the lawyers are making bank, right? I mean, Ed Paltzik, Trump’s attorney, is quoted as saying that Trump will “pursue this vital matter to its just and rightful conclusion.” Vital matter? More like waste of time. And, by the way, has anyone noticed how often Trump uses the word “vital”? It’s like his favorite word or something.
And, let’s not forget, Trump has been railing against CBS for months now, calling for them to lose their license. Because, you know, that’s exactly what the First Amendment is for: to silence people who disagree with you. I mean, come on, Trump, get a grip. You can’t just sue everyone who disagrees with you.
But, I guess that’s just the world we live in now. Where fake news is the norm, and alternative facts are the new truth. So, go ahead, Trump, keep suing everyone. See if I care. Just don’t expect me to buy your book anytime soon.
And, finally, can someone please explain to me why Trump is so obsessed with CBS News? I mean, is it because they’re one of the few news outlets that still fact-check him? Or is it just because they’re not Fox News? Whatever the reason, it’s clear that Trump has a vendetta against CBS, and it’s getting old.
But, hey, at least we can all laugh at Trump‘s expense, right? I mean, this lawsuit is a joke, and we’re all just waiting for the punchline. So, go ahead, Trump, keep suing everyone. We’ll just be over here, laughing at you.
