1. Not sure if this is becoming more sad than pathetic, or more pathetic than sad

[gratuitous]

14. Pathetisad, I think

H/T to the Drew Carey Show.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

20. Sadetic?

Except for one orange haired creep, everyone else in that campaign must be cringing with every breath they take. And the top guy is like, "Trust me. They all lie. I have grate respect for women, more than anyone else. Who you gonna believe, you lying eyes or me? Say, at those things real or silicon? Let me check them out. Great nips, babe. Here, let's see how wine flows between them."

3. More empty legal demands.

Dear sirs:

We are in receipt of your communication regarding this matter. We have consulted with our clients, to wit, People Magazine. Their response, which we hasten to forward to you and your client, is brief, consisting of only two words:

"Fuck Off!"

Very sincerely yours,

A. Real Law Firm

24. It's a classic, and it can work:

29th April 1971

Dear Sir,

We act for Mr Arkell who is Retail Credit Manager of Granada TV Rental Ltd. His attention has been drawn to an article appearing in the issue of Private Eye dated 9th April 1971 on page 4. The statements made about Mr Arkell are entirely untrue and clearly highly defamatory. We are therefore instructed to require from you immediately your proposals for dealing with the matter.

Mr Arkell's first concern is that there should be a full retraction at the earliest possible date in Private Eye and he will also want his costs paid. His attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of your reply.

Yours,

(Signed)

Goodman Derrick & Co.

------------------------------

Dear Sirs,

We acknowledge your letter of 29th April referring to Mr. J. Arkell.

We note that Mr Arkell's attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of our reply and would therefore be grateful if you would inform us what his attitude to damages would be, were he to learn that the nature of our reply is as follows: fuck off.

Yours,

Private Eye

34. I'm not surprised.

Some attorneys are quick to send off letters demanding this or that, as directed by their clients, who pay the attorneys dearly to write such cease and desist demand letters.

Often, the letter gets the desired result. However, if it does not, the original client is often not inclined to continue to pay the attorney to make further attempts. So, the matter is dropped.

Such demand and cease and desist letters are often a one-shot deal. If they fail, nothing more happens. Publications get such letters all the time, and routinely answer them in a dismissive way. Most often, that ends the discussion. It's very costly to bring a matter to court, and most clients are not willing to pay the freight to do so. It's a crap shoot, really.

On the other hand, I've had some success from cease and desist letters written by my "Attorney" on his "official letterhead." I won't provide any details, but they've been successful in getting annoying trollish people off my back in more than one case.

If necessary, I can compose a very official looking missive from my "Attorney." Many examples exist online that make good templates.

4. This is how rich people strike back ... sue people into submission

Most people (i.e., working people the hideous Trump parasites treat as slaves) don't have the resources to defend themselves. But this is different and doomed to failure. People Magazine and NYT have full-time career legal staffs that will gladly defend them into their retirement, where their successors will just pick up the ball and keep going for as long as it takes to drain Donald dry. It won't come to that, of course, as none of these lawsuits has any merit anyway and likely will be summarily dismissed.

5. Not the Onion. nt

[Cakes488]

6. Well lookey what we have here....a Mr. Charles HARDER is representing the groper.....how very very

appropriate is that! Well I made sure to let him know what a funny coincidence I thought that was since his number is plain as day there on the letterhead.

[librechik]

23. Who is writing the script for this universe--Dickens?

great names in the narrative, if you pay attention

[csziggy]

7. What malice is displayed towards Melania by those statements in the story?

How is including those statements "actionable"? They are not libel, they are not malicious,and I don't see how they damage Melania at all.

Plus the "remedy" to attempt to force People to permanently remove the statements from the story is ridiculous. Millions of people have read that story, a good portion have copied or saved it. The statements cannot be removed from the internet anymore than Melania's husband's gross statements can be removed from the internet!

How stupid is Melania Trump and how fucking stupid is her attorney?

NOTE: I am not an attorney so the statements of mine above are my opinion based on decades of experience only.

[Foggyhill]

8. Produce the docs in court dipshit enabler Melania or stop talking

I'm a bit sorry to go after her cause this is 100%!from her sac à crap husband

This has nothing to do with this case
And all about suppressing further accusers

[uppityperson]

9. Is this real??? W. T. F.

[spanone]

10. these trumpfucks are sure demanding...demanding this, demanding that

i say, fuck'em, i demand it!!!!

12. Motion to Dismiss.

Reporter's recollection does not injure Melania's reputation and/or standing in the community.

[Ms. Toad]

13. Hmm . . . if she wouldn't have recognized her had she encountered her,

how can she be sure she didn't encounter her?

(Not to mention that the statements are not defamatory in nature.)

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

15. That's exaclty what I was wondering.

I thought maybe I'd missed something.

16. Another example of why we need to raise taxes on the 1%ers.

No one should have enough money that justice is subverted.

[mnhtnbb]

17. What a pathetic joke.

After the first debate I was somewhat concerned for Melania--despite her deal with the devil--but one has to wonder whether
she even knows The Donald is using her this way.

That's just pathetic. It is entirely possible that Melania has no memory of the event. The first year after each of my children were born was a complete
sleep deprived blur.

[sarae]

21. I don't think Melania wrote this or even read it after it was written.

I think it was all Trump himself.

Lately I've noticed that she looks very unhappy and stiff when she makes appearances. At the debate on Sunday, I noticed that she didn't really interact with her husband, by touching or smiling at him.

She looks like a hostage in this relationship and I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear he's abusing her, physically as well as verbally. His first wife alleged that he physically assaulted her, which she later recounted (probably because he threatened to cut her off financially).

Also, I noticed she wore a blouse which covered her entire neck, which would make sense if she wanted to cover bruises:



I feel bad for her if that's what's going on.

35. that type of loose, hanging bow

is called a "pussy bow." Seriously. Pussy bow blouse, pussy bow dress... it's a phrase that has been used to describe these garments for decades

[yellowcanine]

22. Can you sue someone for claiming to be friendly with you even if they weren't?

Where is the foul? I don't get it?

[jberryhill]

31. No, it's just stupidity

The statements in question are not tied to any plausible damage.

[Johonny]

25. Hey Dick Cheney...here is your need for tort reform :)

[Renew Deal]

26. You know there's a picture of Stoynoff and Melania smiling together somewhere

[benld74]

27. Charles Harder is a botique law firm

Specializing in the entertainment industry, protecting of brand management etc.
Last famous case Hulk Hogan vs Gawker

You are OUT of your league with this Chuck!
WAY outta your league!!

[4 more years]

28. She married this creep !!!

Don't feel sorry for her she some how married this pile of human flesh. The whole trump clan are deplorable bunch of misfits. The circus is packing up soon and leaving this planet.

[RandySF]

29. Playing the game to honor pre-nup

I predict that she will file before the end of the year.

[Adrahil]

30. LOL! Hopefully...

People replies in the same manner as the NYT.

[Fast Walker 52]

32. the hilarious thing is that she doesn't try to dispute the sexual allegations!

[Gothmog]

33. This is a truly stupid letter from a lawyer
