ABC News host George Stephanopoulos grilled Will Scharf, Donald Trump's attorney, during an interview on Sunday.
Throughout the interview, the host repeatedly rejected Scharf's suggestion that President Joe Biden orchestrated Trump's conviction in New York.

I didn’t know that! Great link!
But “reckless disregard for truth” seems to be perfectly suitable here
And it’s not about money. It’s about forcing consequences on attorneys who are willing to make insane arguments to help Trump.
It is about money in that such lawsuits cost money. And they take a lot of time. This isn’t something the DOJ could do, this would be a civil suit brought by Biden himself. I just don’t think it’s worth it.
Of course the DOJ would be uninvolved.
I’m talking about a personal suit by Biden: he’s the victim of the slander.
It would be the best money Biden could spend. Nothing else is going to stop the reckless dishonesty by Trump supporters and attorneys.
He’s in the middle of a campaign and you want him to put it on hold to go to court?
For the one hour that it takes to provide testimony and cross examination? Yes.
This is his lawyer’s time, not POTUS’ time
1 hour of testimony in a simple divorce proceeding for a blue-collar worker is the result of dozens or hundreds of hours of working with the attorney on documentation and preparation. I imagine it would be an order of magnitude more work if it’s the POTUS suing for defamation. It also feeds into the “both sides” narrative to see Biden sitting in a courtroom, same as Trump. It doesn’t matter that Biden’s not the defendant, and it doesn’t matter that it’s a civil matter instead of a criminal one because the footage of Biden in a courtroom is more than enough to sell that story to the sycophants.
In a divorce case you need testimony to understand what the other spouse did.
In a slander case what evidence does Biden need to testify about?
All the evidence is a matter of public record.
