Trump Suggests People Should Sue ABC News for Damages Over Brian Ross Report

President Trump isn’t done weighing in on the blunder from ABC News and Brian Ross yet.

Last night, after ABC News suspended Ross for the botched report on Michael Flynn, the president congratulated the network for taking action:

Congratulations to @ABC News for suspending Brian Ross for his horrendously inaccurate and dishonest report on the Russia, Russia, Russia Witch Hunt. More Networks and “papers” should do the same with their Fake News!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 3, 2017

This morning, he has suggested people sue:

People who lost money when the Stock Market went down 350 points based on the False and Dishonest reporting of Brian Ross of @ABC News (he has been suspended), should consider hiring a lawyer and suing ABC for the damages this bad reporting has caused – many millions of dollars!

According to CNN, the Dow dropped 350 points minutes after Ross’ report dropped.
