Trump's Truth Social sues Washington Post for $3.78 billion, legal experts skeptical

Trump Media and Technology Group filed a defamation lawsuit against the Washington Post seeking $3.78 billion in damages over an article accusing the company of withholding information from regulators and investors.
The lawsuit claims the Post engaged in a "years-long crusade" to injure Trump Media and Technology Group through false reporting.
The Post article in question reported a whistleblower's claims that Trump Media withheld information about a investor's role in a merger from the SEC and shareholders.
Legal experts say Trump Media will have trouble proving the Post acted with "actual malice" and that the $3.78 billion in damages sought is unrealistic.
The lawsuit is one of around 25 recent civil cases involving Trump, who also faces criminal charges and investigations, including into the merger at issue.
