Trump Mulls Suing His Niece Over Apparently Damning Tell-All Book On Family’s ‘Dark History’

Right. With a good GoFundMe warchest, she could go ahead and leak or publish with enough money to fight any charges.

Yes, these drones should never be forgotten.

Much as I might like to forget them – and, these days, too often succeed.

Wow! Nice family you’ve got there. Ol’ Fred must have been a real psychopath.

Didn’t he promise to sue all the women who made claims against him prior to the election? Still mulling over those cases as well?

Well, to be honest, I usually sit at the kids’ table … by popular request.

You can guess whether it’s actually the kids who make the request.

Poor Trumpie. Someone who knows plans to tell the truth about his family and his own corrupt and Daddy-funded adventures in business and tax law. I can’t wait to hear the grounds on which he plans to sue. If he yells libel and slander and fake news, as he will, once they go to court truth is indeed a defense, and No doubt his niece’s publisher made as sure as it could that there is solid evidence to back up her story. And finding out that he tried to cheat his brother’s kids out of their share of his father’s estate and he cut off insurance and health care funds for his nephew with cerebral palsy isn’t a pretty picture already.

Just a noob here…but sue…based on…what, specifically? Libel? You cannot sue just to prevent a unflattering book from being published, can you?

We all knew that Mr. Trump was a ‘sick puppy’, but I don’t think we realized just how sick he was.

If we see some increase in bond defaults this summer already, you could hit the end of the year with Mnuchin & Co. trying to promote a bailout for banks and the financial sector. At that point, people will begin to wonder if they haven’t seen this movie before.
