Hillary Clinton brushed off Donald Trump’s amended lawsuit accusing her and others of conspiring to undermine his presidency with claims of Russian collusion as a “swollen” political manifesto devoid of facts.

The revised suit “alleges a series of disconnected political disputes” that Trump has “alchemized into a sweeping conspiracy” by his foes, according to a motion to dismiss filed Thursday by Clinton, her 2016 campaign chairman John Podesta and former DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, among others.
