“Conspired To Weave A False Narrative”: Trump SUES Hillary For 2016 Election Claims In Massive Lawsuit
No, rather than sit and wait, perhaps interminably, for Durham to finally finish his investigation, Trump is taking action to get back at Hillary: he’s dragging her into court with a massive, 108-page lawsuit.
President Trump apparently isn’t content to sit quietly and take Durham take the lead in punishing all those involved with the Russia collusion hoax, the hoax that Durham has exposed as being deeply connected to the Clinton Campaign.
No, rather than sit and wait, perhaps interminably, for Durham to finally finish his investigation, Trump is taking action to get back at Hillary: he’s dragging her into court with a massive, 108-page lawsuit.
Reuters reported on the lawsuit, saying that “Donald Trump on Thursday sued his rival in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Hillary Clinton, and several other Democrats, alleging that they tried to rig that election by tying his campaign to Russia.”
Further, according to Reuters, the key part of the lawsuit is where Trump alleges that “Acting in concert, the Defendants maliciously conspired to weave a false narrative that their Republican opponent, Donald J. Trump, was colluding with a hostile foreign sovereignty“.
So, Trump is furious that the Clinton Campaign and its allies set him up as a Russian spy or Russian agent and means to get back at them by walloping them with a lawsuit, demanding that he at least be reimbursed for the court expenses he’s incurred as a result of the Russia hoax.
Describing those massive expenses in the lawsuit, expenses that Clinton might be forced to bear if he wins the suit, he wrote that he was “forced to incur expenses in an amount to be determined at trial, but known to be in excess of twenty-four million dollars ($24,000,000) and continuing to accrue, in the form of defense costs, legal fees, and related expenses.”
The lawsuit comes on the heels of Durham’s repeated bombshells about what the Clinton Campaign was up to in 2016 and even after Trump was president; according to various reports from Durham, the campaign was involved with paying for the Steele dossier and even tapping Trump’s internet to frame him as communicating with Russia.
On that point, Durham recently announced that he’ll soon produce tens of thousands of pieces of evidence regarding the Steele Dossier, saying in a filing that:
To date, the government has produced over 60,000 documents in unclassified discovery. A portion of these documents were originally marked “classified” and the government has worked with the appropriate declassification authorities to produce the documents in an unclassified format.
However, recent world events in Ukraine have contributed to delays in the production of classified discovery. The officials preparing and reviewing the documents at the FBI and intelligence agencies are heavily engaged in matters related to Ukraine. Nevertheless, the government will produce a large volume of classified discovery this week and will continue its efforts to produce documents in classified discovery on a rolling basis…
So, if Durham’s allegations are true and his evidence valid, then Trump’s legal team should be able to prove their claim that Team Clinton “conspired to weave a false narrative” about Trump and Russia.
There is, however, a potential problem, as Reuters notes. That problem is that the statute of limitations might have run out, depending on when the four year timer started. As that outlet puts it:
Jeff Grell, a lawyer who specializes in racketeering cases, said Trump may have waited too long in bringing his racketeering claims. Civil racketeering claims are governed by a four-year statute of limitations, Grell said, but there is usually a big dispute about when that four-year period begins to run.
However, given that statutes of limitation generally start running when the potential plaintiff found out about the lawsuit-worthy behavior, perhaps Trump and his legal team can argue that he didn’t find out the full scale of what had been done to create the Russia hoax until later than 2016, perhaps when the Durham investigation started rolling.
Still, the lawsuit is massive and something with which Clinton will have to deal as her presidential ambitions seem to revive.
