1. You can't even take that seriously. Why not 5 bazillion?

Or 5 million billion trillion bazillion to infinity?

Such petty grade-school stuff.

2. The goal is to scare and intimidate people from speaking the truth about Trump.

And make a cash settlement.

Trump doesn't care if he loses in court.
Or doesn't even get to court.

3. People throw around the term "billions" these days like we used to say "millions".

Makes me wonder if my life savings will even last my lifetime. Two words come to mind..."We're fucked".

4. It's a good thing Republicans abhor...

Frivolous lawsuits

5. It is unfortunate that the lawmakers in UK tried to make political capital out of this,

forcing the BBC to go on the defensive.

6. Couple of thoughts

1. Sue for what? Defamation demands harm to the plaintiff’s reputation. Trump has nothing to depreciate.

2. Is Trump’s MO to settle with the condition of getting his buddy Murdoch a stake, perhaps a controlling stake in the BBC?

7. In what court will he sue them and who will enforce a judgement in his favor ?

This is just a typical bully tactic that he does and BBC needs to give him the middle finger !

I’d tell them go ahead and sue orange a hole! And the FAFO!
