Trump Threatens to Sue Times for Epstein Signature
By 
The least compelling court case in global history would be Donald Trump suing the New York Times for publishing his letter to Epstein. Which doesn’t mean the Times won’t cave like the Miami Dolphins.
President Trump on Tuesday threatened to sue The New York Times for publishing articles related to a sexually suggestive note and drawing that was given to the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and appears to have been signed by Mr. Trump. The note was released by Congress this week.
Mr. Trump and his aides have denied that he was involved in the creation of the note, which was presented to Mr. Epstein as part of a gift for his 50th birthday in 2003. The White House described it as a fabrication.
The Times reported in an article on Monday that the signature on the Epstein note — the name “Donald,” with a long tail attached to the final “d” — closely resembled the signatures on personal notes that Mr. Trump wrote to New York City officials from 1987 through 2001.
In a letter to The Times, a personal lawyer for Mr. Trump cited that article, along with an article in July about the president’s penchant for making drawings with a thick black marker, as evidence of “malicious fabrications.”
Sure, OK. Go ahead with that one. I do think it would be hard for the Times to cave. It’s readership is the Democratic Party. To cave would mean massive subscription loss, not to mention more lawsuits. But what do I know?
And yes, I think it’s good to talk about something other than political violence today. Even if it’s some other horrible thing.
