1. Threatens? Do it already

2. Please tell me Beyoncé owns the rights to her music. I’d love to see her go after Trump.

3. Threaten? A C&D is a weird thing to “threaten”

   Send that mother. Threaten a law suit if you can

4. What a poorly written headline and article. You don’t threaten *to* send a Cease and Desist, you threaten to sue *with* one. Which the article text itself says was sent and received. smh

5. Beyonce would send Trump to the poor house.

6. So how does a Cease & Desist work? Just as long as the Trump campaign doesn’t use the same artists song again they’re fine? Is there any consequence to using the song without permission the first time? Because this is like the 4th of 5th article I’ve seen of different artists sending the Trump campaign C&Ds for the same reason, and it kinda seems like they’re just allowed to keep doing that as long as it’s only once per artist?

7. If he has so many admirers like he claims why don’t they write a song for him.
