Libel is a legal matter that could cost any business millions of dollars, not just Mrs. Trump. Get a clue.

Libel is bad, yes, but she’s not a business. She’s a potential business because of her position as the First Lady. And isn’t badmouthing a corporation a form of libel? Sure, Nordstrom’s stock went up, but they can probably sue for the tweet.

Libel is libel, no matter what, learn your law. It also reads like he was taking a pot shot at himself, not Nordstrom, so I doubt it.

She’s the First Lady saying that she can’t exploit her new position for profit because of an article most of us have forgotten about. She rightly won the case, I agree, but it has to make you a little uneasy that she has no interest in this other than profit.

Are we supposed to be using this thread for debate? It’s hard to do that when most of us just post links to quotes from people or pictures of people and the only opposition is “that’s not true”.

Has Trump defeated debate?

Did you watch the debates? He didn’t defeat debate, he grabbed it by the chair and had his way with it.

No. When you drop a marble in a bathtub it’ll slowly roll towards the drain and then circle the grate a few times before it comes to a full stop on its lowest part. That’s what happens with this thread and political links. This thread is this forum’s drainage grate. No matter where you drop your marbles in this forum, they always end up here.

Wonderful analogy. Well said even if you think it includes me.

United Talent Agency has canceled its annual Academy Awards party and will instead donate $250,000 to the American Civil Liberties Union and the International Rescue Committee, and hold a rally “to express the creative community’s growing concern with anti-immigrant sentiment in the United States.”

I wonder if there’s any chance Trump is somehow profiting from all the donations the ACLU is getting.

The stock actually went down immediately after the tweet, then recovered.

http://www.marketwatch.com/story/nordstrom-recovers-from-trumps-terrible-tweet-in-just-4-minutes-2017-02-08

White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Wednesday that Trump had every right to tweet at Nordstrom, as the tweet wasn’t about promoting a family business but defending his daughter against an attack.

Here’s the brutal attack:

Early last Friday, Nordstrom said it would stop selling the Ivanka Trump brand but said the move was purely a business decision and not one based on protests or any other political reason. The company told MarketWatch that it culls about 10% of the brands it carries every year. Based on the Ivanka brand’s performance, it said, “we’ve decided not to buy it for this season.”

Well Trump is showing himself to be trigger happy and extremely dangerous to our servicemen and women. Scary!

"Over dinner, told that Obama wouldn’t launch the attack in Yemen (because they didn’t have enough intel), Trump decided to go for it.

An unmitigated disaster. 30 women and children were slaughtered by our troops, the primary target of the raid was not captured, a Navy SEAL was shot and killed, 3 other SEALs were injured, and we left behind a $70 million helicopter.

NOW, today, Yemen has announced it will no longer allow the US to have any military actions in the country - making us all less safe. "

You’ve never even tried debating with me so I am unsure why you would even say that.

actually I have, in the old thread. I found it frustrating, impossible and a waste of time. I’ve seen no reason in the new thread to change that opinion of debating with you.

He’s making decisions based on his insecurity about his dick size. And getting people killed because of it. Fantastic.

I don’t think she’s looking to exploit her position in the family. She has her own identity outside of her dads. I get uneasy when First Family members become part of the over-all attack on the President. I felt the same way about the Obama family and every other first family I have been alive to witness, including the Clinton’s.

To think that someone might actually believe this enough to say it openly makes me giggle.

First, this is old news already. Secondly, since she won the litigation, she must have provided the facts to prove her case.

Time to move on methinks.

I see some people are still having trouble separating the First Wife and the First Daughter. Considering how Trump lusts after both, I certainly understand.

And anyone who dares ask difficult questions about that raid is now accused of disrespecting the Navy SEAL who died.

The helicopter was scuttled, (by our troops) so nobody nefarious is going to be salvaging anything from it.

From the article:

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said at Tuesday’s press briefing that the raid, which killed 14 Al Qaeda fighters, was aimed at intelligence gathering.

Intelligence gathering…
THE AMERICAN FUCKING WAY!
FUCK YEAH!
Fucking HIGH FIVES ALL AROUND!
Preferably from CHISELED FLYBOYS IN AVIATORS!
YOU KNOW WHAT I’M TALKIN BOUT FRINKLEDINK!!!

From what I can tell, this is Trump’s drawing of first blood, which of course finally divests him of the one thing that set him apart from Hitlery: he’s now a murderer, too.
