If you thought Obama was petty and vindictive, you ain’t seen nothing yet.
On the flip side, we had GWB, who never fought back against his accusers and attackers. We can thank Karl Tokyo Rove for this. Seems he is giving Yeb the same, wrong advice. Good - I don’t want Yeb as president.
At least Trump is using his own lawyers, and not the Justice Department or the IRS. And, oh yeah, he is actually following the law.
So, by your line of reasoning, Trump is also "petty and "vindictive".
I don't see anything "petty" when we're talking about millions in renovations, millions involved in a 10-year contract and other huge money committments connected with the massive edifice, I would scarcely call Trump's suit "petty". Is it "vindictive" when any fool knows that if this chef can get away with busting his long-term committment for no legal reason that other renters in the property could and would do the same?
Trump is protecting himself, his business and his investment in the property, as any smart businessman would do. I'd do it myself...and the smart-ass chef would learn a thing or two about money and ethics.
Since you obviously consider yourself such an all-knowing critic, a canny second-guesser and a super-smart business man, let me know when you are the proud, free-enterprise owner of a multi-billion dollar portfolio like Mr. Trump's.

If they decided not to put up the building or to give the space to someone else the chef would sue them and be right in doing so.
If you want out of a legal contract there is generally an escape clause that will let you out but it will cost you.
The chef could have activate it but instead choose to do it this way.
So contracts are merely vehicles of convenience? Your pettiness towards the Trump candidacy is descending into a long pout.
This isn't petty nor vindictive. It's about someone legally agreeing via contract and having them violate that contract for no legal reason.
