I'm wondering why trump wasn't also named in the Smartmatic suit. That thing started it all.

And it says nothing about not being able to sue ex-presidents.

1. Right, why isn't he being named in some slander lawsuits?

2. They know he doesn't have any money?

3. probably....

because there is some difficulty is separating his official role as potus (which grants him immunity from civil suits) and his role as a private citizen candidate.

Or maybe they don't want their offices blown up.

Just guessing here. Lawyers always target low hanging fruit first. Nothing says trump can't be sued individually.

4. Isn't it fairly common to amend a suit by adding names and charges before trial begins?

We can always hope...
