“Frivolous” is a big deal. It means the court has determined that the plaintiff filed a case that they knew was without merit. Therefore, the plaintiff knowingly wasted the Courts time. And of course, it’s completely unsurprising to see in this thread. ---

> [@Truth Social](#): > > Why doesn’t Fox and Friends show all of the Polls where I am beating Biden, by a lot. They just won’t do it! Also, they purposely show the absolutely worst pictures of me, especially the big “orange” one with my chin pulled way back. They think they are getting away with something, they’re not. Just like 2016 all over again…And then they want me to debate! All of his pictures are not perfect?! I’m surprised to hear that. But I love that with everything else going on, a bad picture can make him mad. Sad! ---
