Rep. Ted Lieu Desperately Asking to Be Sued by President Trump for Defamation

On Sunday, people were encouraging President Donald Trump to sue Grammys host Trevor Noah for making a defamatory joke about Trump visiting Jeffrey Epstein's island. “Get ready, Noah," Trump responded. "I’m going to have some fun with you!”

Rep. Ted Lieu has entered the "hold my beer" phase, making thinly veiled accusations about Trump raping children and threatening to kill children.

All @TedLieu does is lie.

Laughable
These people have TDS so bad.

Time to sue him.

That’s a pretty wild statement

Lieu seems to think all of the attention being paid to Bill and Hillary Clinton is just a distraction from Trump's appearance in the files.

This guy needs to be sued into oblivion.

He cannot be protected by the speech and debate clause. He is not in the chamber

It's time for @POTUS to sue Lieu.

If he's not standing in the well of Congress where his lies are protected, can he not be sued into oblivion?

I'd like to see him prove it. He can't. Hope he's sued into poverty.

Time to get a lawyer Ted. You deserve everything that's coming your way.

Trump has proven with two broadcast networks that he does not take defamation well. We don't see a lawsuit coming out of this, but it would be fun to watch.
