Trump says he will sue New York Times for $15bn

Former US President Donald Trump has announced his intention to sue the New York Times for $15 billion in damages, alleging defamation and libel. Trump has accused the newspaper of serving as a "mouthpiece" for the Democratic Party and claims it has published false and misleading information about him. The lawsuit appears to be in response to the Times' coverage of Trump's businesses and political activities, which have faced scrutiny and criticism. Trump has long been a vocal critic of the media, particularly outlets that have been critical of his presidency and policies. The potential lawsuit is the latest in a series of legal actions and threats made by Trump against media organizations and individuals he perceives as hostile to his interests. The outcome of any such lawsuit remains to be seen, as it would likely face significant legal and journalistic challenges.
