Oh look, Republicans turning on each other like, like … actually I can’t think of anything more vicious than rich wingnuts, so I guess I have to say: turning on each other like Republicans.

I love how Republicans complain about frivolous lawsuits and scream for tort reform. IOKIYAR at its finest.

Maybe if the GOP worked at actually governing and making the country better they wouldn’t be on the verge of a nuclear meltdown.

Where exactly is the smear?

If it’s saying she “begged” for a job, even if that’s a lie, it’s hardly a smear.

Any halfway decent judge could turn a defamation suit against Trump and Lewandowski into a class action suit. On the other hand, Trump and Lewandowski are definitely not a class act

According to the Politico article, she decided Lewandowski was a boor and declined to pursue the prospect further. Portraying her as a critic because she’s a disappointed job seeker could hurt her future employment prospects. You can’t go around telling lies about people that hurt their reputations. If they can’t prove what they said about her is true, they might have a problem—I’m not a lawyer but that’s my understanding.

I think that is exactly the legal point. She claims she did not “beg” for the job.
I would be plenty pissed if a potential employer tracked me down and tried to hire me, then publicly badmouthed me when I declined the job. And I may likely sue.
Good for her.

Scorned golddigger.

Like Michelle Fields, she has Megyn Kelly Syndrome. Look at me, Look at me, Look at ME, I must be important.

This person who is self-deluded enough to think he could be president, who has millions of twitter followers, and who is so thin-skinned and petty that he needs to tweet

Great job on @donlemon tonight @kayleighmcenany @cherijacobus begged us for a job. We said no and she went hostile. A real dummy! @CNN

specifically to get back at someone most people haven’t heard of because she referred to his behavior as a “3rd grader”

is simply not fit to hold any public office. I hope she succeeds in her suit, loathe as I am of the whole “let’s just sue!” mentality.

I need a darned score card to keep track how many people The Rump has threatened to sue. It’s kind of nice to see the tables turned, but I don’t see how being the plaintiff improves her employment prospects. Especially if she doesn’t win.

Corey Lewandowski is sure pissing off a lot of people in a very short period of time I see ,aside from Ms Jacoubus.

Funny, the dialogue you attribute to her is exactly what comes out of Donald Trump every moment of every day.

Trump has grifter written all over his face. And lying comes to him as easy as breathing. As does threatening legal action against anyone who says mean things about him.

I’m beginning to wonder if he has some hold over Mr. Trump?

How else to explain their continued association.

Second thought: Perhaps Mr. Trump believes that Mr. Lewandowski is the only friend he has left in the world? If so, I suspect he’s in for a rude awakening at some point, given Mr. Lewandowski’s track record.

Its classic Moby-Dick, sickly obsessed with a cause to the point it destroys you. Starring Mitch McConnell as Captain Ahab.

After Jacobus called Trump “a third grader faking his way through an oral report on current affairs”

…she filed a lawsuit when Trump and his campaign said something mean about her.

These GOPers sure do love a lawsuit.
