    Trump sued by Central Park Five for defamation over claims made during Harris debate

    “Defendant Trump falsely stated [at the debate] that Plaintiffs killed an individual and pled guilty to the crime. These statements are demonstrably false,” the civil suit said.

    “Plaintiffs never pled guilty to any crime and were subsequently cleared of all wrongdoing. Further, the victims of the Central Park assaults were not killed,” the complaint said.

    The suit alleges that Trump’s conduct toward the men at the debate “was part of a continuing pattern of extreme and outrageous conduct dating back several years, thus constituting a continuing tort.”

    I had to just shake my head in disgust of the typical response from Trump's team.......

    Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung, in a statement provided by the campaign, said, “This is just another frivolous, Election Interference lawsuit, filed by desperate left-wing activists, in an attempt to distract the American people from Kamala Harris’s dangerously liberal agenda and failing campaign.”

    “The frantic lawfare efforts by Lyin’ Kamala’s allies to interfere in the election are going nowhere and President Trump is dominating as he marches to a historic win for the American people on November 5th,” Cheung said.

    The lengths they will go to defending that guy by deflecting from the issue, and defending Trump spewing false facts about others is so disgusting.

    Even if Trump wins this lawsuit should still be able to move forward as the USSC has said sitting presidents can be sued while in office.
