  1. He kinda doesn’t have time to have anymore lawsuits…he’s already in court with other lawsuits lol

  2. Out of money, out of time, out of sight, out of mind.

  3. Bro, I heard you like lawsuits, so I got you some lawsuits to go with your lawsuits.

    But I also know there’s no way you want to go through discovery in this case.

  4. B.S. lawsuit as the S.S. Trump is going down with the rattus G.O.P.

  5. It was always a stupid move to sue Cohen, Cohen knows Trump is full of shit, he was on the inside of many Trump lawsuits meant to intimidate. And Cohen knows exactly how to destroy Trump in a deposition.

    So another loss for the surrender monkey. I’d love to see a win/loss column starting Nov 2020 for this clown.

  6. He probably just wanted the headline on Fox News that he filed the lawsuit. *Trump is going on offense against his accusers!* Right wing media won’t report that he dropped it.

  7. This has been his style for his entire adult career. File Lawsuit:Attempt to Bluster, Bloviate, Blackmail, or Bribe. If anyone takes the bait, Profit. If nobody takes the bait, Bail Out before Discovery.

    It’s more or less the same process when he is being sued as well.

  8. Gotta love the silence in the joke “conservative” thread. Where you trump suck boys at? Your boy has been loosing daily yet you’re silent.

  9. How much do you think he grifted? He was never going to be able to do discovery.

  10. Someone took the program in Wargames too literally.

    The only way to win is not to play.

    This is what he meant by ‘winning’

  11. His usual tactic of using the court system to bully everyone isn’t working anymore. He is probably crapping himself because he has never had to deal with consequences before.

  12. That is because the defendants are calling his bluff and not settling. Instead, they plan to go to trial and make Trump get on the stand. That is the last thing he wants. He uses lawsuits as a negotiaon weapon. He doesn’t actually plan to follow through them.

  13. turkey vultures use this same defense: projectile vomit and retreat.

  14. He dropped it because the appellate court judges were not amused:

    “The appeals court, in a terse two-page order Thursday, effectively turned aside for now a lawsuit that Mr. Trump had filed against the trial judge, Arthur F. Engoron.”

    Funny, it turns out judges don’t like it when defendants sue other judges for just doing their jobs. Who would have thought?

    Oh and these same appellate judges will be the ones that hear Trump’s appeal of his case – which his lawyers already filed even though the trial isn’t even over yet. Amateurs.

  15. Remember when he mocked a physically disabled person like a 10 year old schoolyard bully?

    That pretty much tells you everything you need to know about this pos.

  16. If you are his lawyers you definitely need to put fat retainers on any of these cases. For the Cohen case he was in charge of the DOJ and we know he meddled in their business a lot yet in a case against his lawyer where he was named “Individual 1” (Trump) by the DOJ convicted “Individual 2” (Cohen) for crimes committed to help Trump get elected. He let that unfold and saved himself. I’m certain any deposition will not help him or his family. If I recall one of the claims was paying for the abortion of a playboy bunny and a RNC lawyer who took the fall. Also Stormy Daniel’s who seems to be able to describe his penis and that affair may have been when Barron Trump was in the womb.

  17. Ugh. This god damn asshat. You know what he made me think? “There should be limits to how one can use the court, how much money can be used” and such. But in practice laws like that would only hurt regular people with legit lawsuits.

    Trump is the definition of “give anyone freedom, and some asshole will abuse the hell out of it.”

  18. Who was it that said showing legal weakness is like blood in the water for sharks?

  19. I love that he’s dropped the one with Cohen cause Cohen wanted his under oath deposition!! Donald really is a pathetic little man.

  20. To me this means he’s running (or has run) out of money.
    Not enough MAGA donations to cover his legal and living expenses.
    It also means he knows how truly screwed he is. Not even Vlad can bail him out.

  21. Likely because “I’m too busy campaigning to defend myself in court” doesn’t hold a lot of water when he’s suing other people.
