Further pushing the defamation claims, Lindsey Halligan, a Florida lawyer for Trump, said on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” podcast on July 29 that “the big lie” was a German phrase penned in a book by Adolf Hitler, Insider reported.

“CNN branded Trump as a liar, and referred to his questions regarding voter fraud as ‘the big lie,’ which is actually linked to Adolf Hitler,” Halligan said.

While the lawsuit has yet to materialize, Trump’s legal team claimed he “subjectively believes” the election was stolen. However, at this time, no evidence of voter fraud has been found.

U.S. District Judge Raag Singhal in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, found that CNN’s use of “big lie” and the comparisons to Hitler were opinions, not facts.
“Being ‘Hitler-like’ is not a verifiable statement of fact that would support a defamation claim,” Singhal said.
Trump is appealing the order.
