Now This is Big

Looks like Donald Trump won't take this sitting down:

President Trump on Wednesday lashed out at Nordstrom for dropping his daughter Ivanka Trump’s clothing line.

"My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom. She is a great person -- always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!" he tweeted.

Can't wait for the Executive Order on this one.

Re: Now This is Big

"By royal proclamation from the omnipotent house of Trump in the winter palace at Mar-A-Lago, his royal highness, Donald J. Trump, hereby issues this decree: that all women in the kingdom are to proceed immediately to their nearest Nordstrom store where they are required to purchase a minimum of two outfits that bear the name of the royal daughter, Ivanka. Any women who do not abide by this decree will be subject to extreme vetting and possible waterboarding. Lack of funds will not be considered a valid excuse for not purchasing these fine garments. This decree is just and enforceable under the visage of the brown shirts and the application of the established Alternate Facts conundrum. SO BE IT !"

And we were worried that the Clinton foundation would be a conflict of interest

Melania Trump reaches settlement in libel lawsuit against Maryland blogger

https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/melania-trump-reaches-settlement-in-libel-lawsuit-against-maryland-blogger/2017/02/07/3b8ecd86-ed3e-11e6-9973-c5efb7ccfb0d_story.html?utm_term=.ec4e977a1c01

First lady Melania Trump settled her defamation lawsuit against a Maryland blogger, who agreed to apologize to the Trump family and pay her a “substantial sum,” her attorneys said Tuesday.“I posted an article on August 2, 2016 about Melania Trump that was replete with false and defamatory statements about her,” the blogger, Webster Tarpley, said in the statement provided by Trump’s attorneys.

“I had no legitimate factual basis to make these false statements and I fully retract them,” Tarpley said in the statement. “I acknowledge that these false statements were very harmful and hurtful to Mrs. Trump and her family, and therefore I sincerely apologize to Mrs. Trump, her son, her husband and her parents for making these false statements.”Neither Trump’s attorneys at Harder, Mirell & Abrams based in Beverly Hills, nor Tarpley’s attorneys at Harman Claytor Corrigan & Wellman would provide the settlement amount.

 “We hold these truths to be self-evident,”  former vice president Biden said during a campaign event in Texas on Monday. "All men and women created by — you know, you know, the thing.”

We are about one Tweet away from,
"Buy my daughter's line or else".

Shameful.

Not sure what this lawsuit has to do with the topic of the thread.

Re: Now This is Big

Common, do you think that it is appropriate behavior for the President of the United States to publicly criticize a private company's business decisions because they adversely affect a family member?
Is that what you sent him to Washington to do?
