The point was to demonstrate a pattern of behavior, namely suing or threatening to sue people to shut them up after or in anticipation of them saying things he doesn’t like. Or even showing videos of him saying things he would like to deny he ever said. There are a couple words for that. One is intimidation. But in the case of a powerful man behaving this way toward someone much weaker it’s called bullying. And how fragile must the man’s ego be for him to be so easily enraged by the smallest perceived slight? For a supposed master of the deal he’s awfully easy to bait. Bottom line, there are really odd and pathologic things about Donald Trump that this campaign is bringing to light. I’m sorry if you and others can’t see it.

No. The ‘point’ was the headline of the OP, “That Time Trump Sued a Writer — and Lost Big”.

Don’t tell me about a pattern or patterns. Tell me what LOSING BIG is here.

The whole point of the article is the headline, not facts. It is meant to try and influence votes at the last minute in SC.
