He's doing this to pander to his base and stay in the news. Its absolutely absurd.

As a side note, there are a lot of people (who just so happen to be rich) who want to make it a lot easier to sue news organizations for what they report. Even if it increases the probability of a lawsuit by a little bit, it would have a chilling effect on reporting.

Trump once sued Bill Maher for defamation of character, specifically for saying Trump's father had to have been an orangutan. The judge laughed Trump out of court.

He should pay CNN for all the publicity they've given him.

Thats the point. The reason Trump is suing them is ...to get publicity.

Trump stays in the public eye ...largely BECAUSE...he works tirelessly to stay there.

Bezos does not strive to be bald.
