President-elect Donald Trump is not just occupied with preparing to return to the White House. He is also involved in an ongoing conflict with media organizations on multiple fronts.
ABC News resolved one lawsuit initiated by Trump just prior to him filing another against the Des Moines Register and its parent company.
There exists a significantly broader scope of Trump’s legal troubles, which encompasses pressing inquiries regarding the hundreds of millions of dollars he has been deemed responsible for paying in various cases: in federal court for defaming E. Jean Carroll in recent years and for sexually assaulting her decades prior, as well as for civil fraud in New York state court for exaggerating his net worth to secure more favorable loans. Trump was additionally found guilty of falsifying business records related to hush money payments made before the 2016 election, and a New York judge determined this week that Trump does not possess presidential immunity protections in the criminal case. These will represent distinct legal dramas to observe.
