Donald Trump just issued a 'scathing' multimillion-dollar legal threat to a conservative group
Yahoo Finance ^ | 2015-09-22 | Colin Campbell

The release — titled "Donald J. Trump Sends Club for Growth Scathing Cease and Desist Letter Regarding Recent 'Attack Ads'" — repeatedly bashed the Club for Growth, with whom Trump has constantly feuded during his campaign.

"I am not surprised the dishonest, irrelevant and totally failing Club for Growth has resorted to attacking the definitive front-runner, especially after I refused to contribute to their pathetic group," Trump said in a statement.

In the cease-and-desist letter to Club for Growth President David McIntosh, Trump lawyer Alan Garten similarly tore into the "pitiful little group" while promising a devastating lawsuit should the group not immediately pull its attack ads against Trump.

“I voted for Santorum last time and I remember a lot of commentary about Romney’s less than sterling conservative record. Evidently you weren’t paying attention.”

On this site, yes. Not from the ones I listed.

I hope you will take time to congratulate Trump when CFG backs down.

In USA, any one can file a law suit against any one and there is no penalty for losing the law suit. In some other countries, the loser has to pay legal costs of the defendant.

I’ve never known ANYONE to seek out a current political ad to see it. I can’t imagine anyone but an insanely hard-core partisan doing so.

I have sought out the old anti-Goldwater ad to see it, was too young back then to remember it now.

Anyone who moves in conservative circles knows CFG is nothing but a front-group for the cheap labor crowd. The WSJ editorial page is infected with the same malady. This election season has finally exposed the GOPe for what they are to people who have not been paying attention.

“I voted for Newt in primary. And voted for Romney in general because he was more conservative on some issues than Obama, and not any more liberal than Obama on any issue.”

That was also my pattern. I voted for Romney in hopes of getting rid of Obama. His being a liberal was not part of the decision. My impatience is with this phony exaltation of “conservatism” now that Trump is leading with conservative ideas.

You’re clueless if you think we don’t understand the mission of CFG & the other assorted GOPe front groups.

“Trump = crybaby.”

So you prefer milquetoast eGOP RINOs that sit that and take it instead of fighting back against lies and liberal propaganda. Got it. Go away.

The CFG won’t back down.

Not necessarily, although Obama did not lash out publicly, he just sicced the IRS/EPA/DOJ/DOE/MSM/DOD/DOL/ etc. on any criticizing individual/organization.

“Geeze, we all take Obama to task for having thin skin. Trump has even thinner skin than the idiot inhabiting the White House now.”

Trump fights back. That isn’t thin skinned. You metrosexuals just think running away is being the bigger man. Hate to tell you, but the feminazis have brainwashed you.

I’ve never been in a union. Now that we got that utter tripe out of the way here’s a clue for you & the clowns at the CFG who you are affiliated with. Screw.
