Melania has filed more than one and won. I think the Trump family has had more than enough and this is the only way to shut up the lies they have been spinning for too long.

And that was no apology.. he said he should not have reported it for reasons.. but he never said it was a false story. Sue till they get the message... they are not journalists, they are the enemy trying to null an election

If there is no law, there is no law

Then, extralegal extermination becomes premissible

There’s nothing it Trump’s Tax returns. If there were the IRS would have “leaked” it.

O’Donell wasn’t apologizing. He was trying to change everyone’s mind.

The underlying issue here is the use of an anonymous source. I don’t know how to recalibrate the law in this area, but a reporter who goes public with accusations from anonymous sources is vouching for their reliability. The reporter should acquire some potential liability. A named source is different. In that case, the potential libel would attach to the source, not the reporter. As it is, reporters have gotten into the habit of mainstreaming sheer rumor, speculation and malicious fabrications from hidden actors. That really needs to be reined in.

Too funny... I guess this is why people hate the press more than they hate politicians.

“I should not have said it on-air or posted it on Twitter. I was wrong to do so.”

AND...”Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...considering Mr Lawrence has already admitted to his wrongdoing in this matter, we ask that you find him guilty as charged...and award President Trump the full $25 million the aggrieved party is requesting as recompense.”

"However, Eric Trump says it’s too late, and warned O’Donnell that he will face legal action over the slur".

Wake me when the suit is filed.

Since Trump has attorneys on a retainer the likelihood is high there will be a suit.

If you believe years, perhaps decades, of Trump coverage by Forbes, Trump does not have the wealth he claims.

If tax returns were released, that would be the likely revelation

No. MSNBC has to show proof. The President does not. If they dont have it, they can’t fish for it.

“Every time the media whores say “if true ...” it should trigger a lawsuit.”

I’m ready to see Shepherd Smith and Neil Cavuto to be sued, fired, preferably both.

I think we need some legal reform to strengthen the rights of the wrongly accused. Otherwise, the accusers will keep doing it; this will carry over to “ red flag” accusations as well.

yes. they need to be checked.

If you listen closely, he never says the charges are untrue. He just says he came out too soon.

"We don't know whether the information is inaccurate."

That was the part that probably kept O'Donnell in trouble when he tried to weasel out of it. In fact, I noted this at the tail end of my video yesterday: Lawrence O'Donnell Apologizes for Being a Complete Idiot.

Related thread from yesterday:

Apparently, O'Donnell got hoaxed by using a faked report. Ironic that the fake news media would be hoaxed by fake news. But, like Rachel Maddow, they are so madly eager to find something -- anything -- anti-Trump that they would even use unverified reports. They have made themselves gullible.
