Trump's Harvard move reflects one of his go-to tactics: Lawsuits

Donald Trump has played many roles. Real estate developer. Marketing extraordinaire. Reality TV host. Candidate. President — twice. Another part has been constant through all of them: plaintiff. His latest moves to sue Harvard and threaten comedian Trevor Noah are part of a pattern that goes back decades. Trump threatens lawsuits and file them with aplomb. He files them against individuals, institutions, even the people who elected him. And it’s often not about an actual trial or finding of fact. It started with a fight against the federal government. And now his biggest ask ever also involves suing the federal government — this time meaning the president is suing the taxpayers who elected him.
