Former President Donald Trump’s racketeering lawsuit against his 2016 presidential opponent Hillary Clinton and other political enemies has been dismissed by a federal judge.
In a 65-page ruling issued on Thursday, Judge Donald Middlebrooks said that Trump’s suit ‘lacks in substance and legal support it seeks to substitute with length, hyperbole, and the settling of scores and grievances’.
Trump earlier this year sued 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Clinton, former FBI Director James Comey, the Democratic National Committee, Rep Adam Schiff and others he claims conspired against him in the ‘Russia hoax’. Trump labeled a prove into his presidential campaign’s ties to Russia as a hoax.
