Melanie's suit against the Daily Mail is a big risk...if she loses, everyone can then legally and honestly call the First Lady a whore.

That's the beauty of it.

And, win or lose, she's legally declared that, in the view of Clan Trump, the presidency is no more than a sleazy earning opportunity.

I've a vague idea that after Harry S Truman retired he refused directorships and invitations to give paid speeches because he thought that wasn't consonant with the dignity of the presidency, and he became quite hard up. Times do change.

IANAL, but now that she's a public figure I think it would be harder for her to sue anyone for that whether it's true or not.

Really hoping she is dumb enough to sue even though the rumors are true and someone brave leaks proof

Normally I'd assume nobody playing at these stakes would be so dumb to sue if the rumors aren't true, but this is the ****ing Trump family.

Icing on the cake - the whole "Tell us his name and I will destroy his career" thing... is over requiring a conviction for asset forfeiture - one of the biggest abusive scams going.

Everyone is talking about the wall but it's things like all those self-checkout machines in stores that should be scaring Billy Bob in the red states.

Self-checkout is already essentially obsolete. Tech is there to just grab something and walk out the door and it auto charges to an app on the phone.
Luckily on this front people are very slow to change.

Trump's personality is only half-joking with something like that, he's more than willing to destroy people's careers.

Jake Tapper currently chewing up and spitting out Kellyanne Conway on CNN on their lies about media not covering terrorist attacks and the fact Trump hasn't mentioned the mosque attack in Canada and the facts they always ignore non Muslim attacks.

She seems way less combative. CNN declining to have her on, on Sunday must have had an effect.

The system is rigged. The majority has to stay angry and motivated.

Maybe this we'll help:

1. Dem candidates for House got 500,000 more votes than GOP, but GOP controls the House.
2. Dem Senate candidates got 45.2M votes and GOP only got 39.3M votes, yet GOP controls the Senate.
3. Dem candidate for Pres. got 3M more votes than GOP, but GOP has the White House.

The system is being gamed to allow a super conservative, largely white, out of the mainstream Christian block to take this country from its majority.

To minorities this is Apartheid. To anyone who doesn't want to see the world burned and replaced with some narrow version of a white, nationalist, creepy Christian, state, this feels like Armageddon.

That was incredible, if anyone missed it they should absolutely watch.

I wish Trump would sit for an interview with Tapper and have to answer those direct questions, but his inferiority complex would never allow it.

Today's episode of The Daily with Michael Barbaro is pretty scary on the inner-workings of Trump's white house: in short, they don't really know what they are doing.

"rank inexperience" was one phrase used.
