Judge Dismisses Trump Lawsuit Against Hillary Clinton

Former president Donald Trump’s lawsuit against Hillary Clinton has been dismissed by a federal judge in Florida.

Trump filed the lawsuit in March accusing Clinton and more than two dozen others of “a malicious conspiracy to disseminate patently false and injurious information about Donald J. Trump and his campaign, all in the hopes of destroying his life, his political career and rigging the 2016 Presidential Election in favor of Hillary Clinton.” 

Bloomberg reports:

The suit was amended in June to include new details from Special Counsel John Durham’s failed prosecution of longtime Democratic lawyer Michael Sussmann, who was accused of lying to the Federal Bureau of Investigation while providing a Trump-Russia tip just before the 2016 election.

“At its core, the problem with plaintiff’s amended complaint is that plaintiff is not attempting to seek redress for any legal harm; instead, he is seeking to flaunt a two-hundred-page political manifesto outlining his grievances against those that have opposed him, and this court is not the appropriate forum,” US District Judge Donald Middlebrooks, appointed to the bench by Bill Clinton, said in a 65-page order dated Thursday. 

The ruling by Middlebrooks, who in April rejected Trump’s request that he disqualify himself from the case, takes several shots at the lawsuit, noting that the theory of the case was “difficult to summarize in a concise and cohesive manner. It was certainly not presented that way.” He said many of the “characterizations of events are implausible because they lack any specific allegations which might provide factual support for the conclusions reached.” 

Trump is currently ensnared in multiple legal battles in the Sunshine State. On Thursday, the Department of Justice filed a notice of appeal regarding a Florida judge’s motion to appoint a special master to review materials seized during the FBI’s raid of Mar-a-Lago.

  1. It figures!! The rats always get their way. Lots of people in their pockets. Follow the money trail…probably straight to Uncle Georgie!!

    • I concur. I read the Judge is a Clinton appointee and Trump even asked for this Judge to recusrecuse himself/herself because of bias, sure enough Trump’s call was correct.

  2. CLINTON APPOINTED jUDGE WHO SHOULD HAVE RECUSSED HIMSELF IF HE RESPECTS THE LAW, BUT NO HE HAD TO DEFINE HIMSELF AS BIASED. WE NOW HAVE A TYRANNICLA GOVRNMENT, SO SAD.

  3. Hillary Clinton the most corrupt person in the United States Government. Was never found guilty for any of her crimes including the responsibly of murdering soldiers. But Trump, he is guilty of everything claimed by her party of corrupters. She has been in politics all her adult live and all that was said about her misdealing’s was, she should have known better. So, is it surprise to anyone in this world that she wouldn’t be held responsible for this? What a joke. How deep were these pockets?

  4. What most people don’t understand, when a case is DISMISSED, it does not mean that a trial has found anyone guilty or not guilty. If only means that the Judge has decided that there is not enough evidence to go to trial. This is misleading and has become a joke of our judicial system.
