That’s good, isn’t it?

Someone should ask Trump how politico.com got a copy of the letter.

[MamaB]

Great.

Trump is playing this by the book. If the cease & desist letter is not effective he will bankrupt them when he institutes litigation. He wins either way.

[glorgau]

I love that he says it himself instead of some “spokesperson”.

[SgtHooper]

Must be a hen house, eh? “Layers”? :-)

[CodeToad]

I think this is one of the few times I have veer seen a candidate with the maturity to fight back against political liars.

Go Trump Go!!!

CLUB PRESIDENT DAVID MCINTOSH JOINS MORNING JOE

...Bashes Trump, Supports Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz (in that order)

Laughed when asked about Yeb. ...brought up Yeb support of Common Core.

-- Stomping on the First Amendent as an election tactic is unbecoming. --

A real politician would denounce the falsehoods in the strongest terms.

FWIW, the first amendment doesn't protect defamatory speech.

[P.O.E.]

want s/b went.

Durnit.

A “Strongly worded letter”. Yep, Obama certainly knows about strongly worded letters. He gets one from boner at least once a week.

[mmichaels1970]

and the problems groups like this perpetuate within a broken Washington, D.C.

This is where Trump's different. "Groups like this" have been governing us for way too long. "Groups like this" are why politicians have completely and now blatantly disregard the will of their constituents. "Groups like this" decide who will have power, and who they will take it away from.

There are probably countless "groups like this" running DC. It's time to find somebody who will not be run by them.

Oh, and by the way, please destroy the media while you're at it Mr. Trump.

[magna carta]

yes. a good businessman to the death...

[tatown]

That is the heart of reason for Trump’s continued support. He fights like he wants to win.

[kjam22]

Yeah... there’s always a fine line between the first amendment and slander.

[RoosterRedux]

floors full of layers

Well floors full of laying hens is a whole lot of chickensh!t. Club for Growth had better be prepared for a sh!tstorm to come their way.;-)

In fact, the classy approach (and I believe the same thing would have held for Walker, who arguably got misrepresented by Trump the other day) would be to thank the other party for bringing up the matter, because now it’s a chance for Trump to highlight the truth, which is [etc.]

[deport]

Can be if he gets their attention and they listen to his reasoning. All these candidates
have supporters that will have to go somewhere when and if they drop out of the race.
And most will as we progress towards mid March or so.

[Jane Long]

Agree. CFG has turned into a complete sham, under McIntosh.
