The former president has continued to claim the 2020 election was stolen, even after every claim was thrown out of court and no valid, substantial evidence of widespread fraud has been presented.

Trump filed his $475 million lawsuit against CNN on Monday, accusing the news network of using its “massive influence” to defame him with a “barrage of negative associations and innuendos.”Īmong the former president’s claims is that anchors and pundits have coined the term the “big lie” to smear him and associate him with “one of the most repugnant figures in modern history,” by which he meant Adolf Hitler.

The big lie is the opposite,” the former president said.
