Again, there is no legal basis for TFG's lawsuit other than providing a forum for TFG to rant about NY AG James and to call her names. The RICO lawsuit filed by TFG against Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Peter Strock and a couple of dozen other persons who hurt TFG's feelings was nothing but a chance for TFG to rant about the Russia investigation. That lawsuit was dismissed and Secretary Clinton is seeking attorney fees and sanctions against TFG.
This lawsuit will be dismissed and the attorneys and Boris Epshteyn who filed this lawsuit should be sanctioned or disbarred in large part because these lawyers were warned that there was no merit to this lawsuit, but they filed this piece of crap anyway.

There was an intervention among Donald Trump's lawyers on Wednesday night, according to New York Times "Trump whisperer" Maggie Haberman and her co-authors.
The intervention wasn't one in which loving family members gathered around to read their letters asking their loved one to get some help. Instead, it was a legal team desperately trying to tell the former president that his "primal scream of a lawsuit" against New York Attorney General Letitia James was ill-advised.
It's been a difficult legal week for Donald Trump where he was forced to settle a long-fought case brought by protesters because the Bronx court couldn't find any jurors who didn't hate the former president. The previous week was worse, however, with his fraud case going to trial, the Justice Department bearing down and talking of an indictment after Election Day.
Trump's lawyers tried to tell the Florida lawyers that filing a frivolous lawsuit would not only fail but it could result in legal malpractice. Florida has laws against so-called "frivolous lawsuits," which could mean that if Trump files one he could be subjected to pay for the other side's attorney's fees.,,,,,
Trump has failed in his ongoing attempts to stop James' investigations into the Trump Organization, including a complaint he filed in federal court against James, but it was dismissed.
"The new 41-page lawsuit against Ms. James was filed in Palm Beach by Timothy W. Weber, Jeremy D. Bailie and R. Quincy Bird, members of a St. Petersburg-based law firm — and was championed by Boris Epshteyn, an in-house counsel for the former president who has become one of his most trusted advisers," said the Times. "While lawsuits filed on behalf of Mr. Trump often bear signs of the former president’s input, the Florida case at times sounds remarkably like him, replete with boasts and expressions of raw grievance."
Epshteyn is also going to appear before the Georgia grand jury
