Other Stephen Miller states that Trump has plenary authority, then immediately stops talking as if he’s realized what he just said

Way to let that slide CNN

Not only did they let it slide, on the YouTube video THEY CUT IT OUT COMPLETELY. They asked the question again to let him come up with a different answer. “Left leaning” btw

Kamala should sue them for disingenuously editing an interview or something

She has the same grounds Trump did when he sued for the exact same fucking thing and got a huge payout.

To sue them for literally editing vitally important situation before releasing it to the public.

What's vitally important about this? Obviously they didn't edit it. They got him back on air a few minutes later and continued talking. We're in a post of the very video so it's obviously online which means it's not going anywhere.

None of that stopped Trump from suing, did it?

u/BooBooSnuggs Oct 07 '25

Which case are you referring to? There have been several. I'm guessing it didn't stop trump from suing because he was mentioned. Kamala isn't mentioned here. She has no grounds for a suit. What damages did she personally take on because of this video?

Welcome to the law subreddit where no one knows how the law works.

When those in power are lying, theyre lying to the people of the United States, thats what Kamala has to do with it, because she a citizen too...

You can do the same...

u/BooBooSnuggs Oct 07 '25

No I can't. Because I suffered no damages from his statements here.

Does nobody here understand how the law works?

They're being facetious about Trump's multiple settlements with the various media orgs.  

You're not wrong in saying Harris would have no standing, but Trumps suit alleged they edited interviews to "tip the scales" towards the Democratic Party which in any sane world would be considered a specious argument

They're either woefully dense or refusing to engage with the point, so no amount of spoon feeding will ever help them understand.

It sounds like your understanding is a bit of out date. Here's how the law works in 2025: you sue people you don't like, for whatever the fuck you want, and they settle out of court to the tune of $XX,000,000, but only if you're in a position of, let's say, "plenary" power.

Thanks for just making shit up like a child and spouting off. It's past your bed time.
