Pretty sure "opinion" is the key word here, and why these suits won't get off the ground. They're simply intended to be intimidating and harrassing. The campaign should pay a big price for filing suits like this, including all of the defendants' costs. That goes for Devin Nunes and Donald Trump on his own, too.President Trump's reelection campaign is suing CNN for defamation, filing its third lawsuit in two weeks against a major media outlet over opinion columns about Russian efforts to assist his 2016 presidential bid.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court in the Northern District of Georgia, is accusing CNN of publishing a libelous opinion piece on its website about Russia's efforts to influence U.S. elections.

The complaint follows similar lawsuits the campaign has filed against The New York Times and The Washington Post. Each lawsuit claims that opinion pieces published by the outlets make defamatory statements about the campaign that have been disproven by the special counsel's investigation into Russian interference in the 2020 election.

UPDATE:
Flip the Senate, please.
