Trump Sued for Defamation

[n david]

The gift of Lewandowski keeps giving.

"""Donald Trump went on the attack against a GOP strategist, dismissing her as a loser who was desperate to get a job with his campaign, but in a new lawsuit she insists it was the other way around.

Cheri Jacobus is pissed that after she was critical of Trump -- calling him a "bad debater" on CNN -- Donald and campaign manager Corey Lewandowski blasted her on TV and Twitter."""

"""Lewandowski went on MSNBC and said Jacobus "came to the office on multiple occasions trying to get a job from the Trump Campaign, and when she wasn't hired clearly she went off and was upset by that."

Trump tweeted, "Turned her down twice and she went hostile. Major loser, zero credibility.""""

"""But in her defamation lawsuit, Cheri says Trump's people started actively recruiting her back in May 2015. She includes multiple emails and Facebook messages with Corey and other Trump staffers - who encouraged her to join the campaign. They even discussed salary - Cheri wanted $19k/month to be Trump's communications director.

They never sealed the deal - she says negotiations soured in June 2015. Cheri says Trump and Lewandowski's lies damaged her rep in the political biz -- she's suing for at least $2 million."""

I hope the lawsuit is successful. Trump has repeatedly lied and bashed people on Twitter and hasn't been held accountable for his lies.

This is interesting:

"""The suit further alleges that Trump and the campaign bore a grudge against Jacobus for providing information to a Washington Post reporter for an article last fall about the pro-Trump Make America Great Again super PAC, which had close ties to the campaign and was run by an associate of Lewandowski's. Following the Post's reporting, the super PAC shut down."""

Could have been a campaign violation if reported before the PAC closed down.

Remember the other lady who was employed at this PAC and recently spoke out against Trump?

Same MO, Trump bashed her as well.

Makes a sane person question Trump's credibility there and wonder if she was indeed telling the truth.

I really hope Trump gets nailed for this, even though $2 mil isn't much.

The lawsuit is incredible.

The part about the email from Ailes at Fox to Trump is eye opening.

Lewandowski really messed up with this. Openly talking about what could have been a campaign violation (Trump staff working closely with the PAC), not to mention it shows Trump was lying about his self-funding. And then he talks about the Ailes email...

Combine his part in the lawsuit with the dust up over his false claims about FL GOP...not a good week already.

Manafort has to be livid over this.

Manafort has a shady past and has lobbied for Saudi Arabia against Israel for one.

Over a 40-year career as a lobbyist and political consultant, Manafort and his firms have advised, in no particular order, a business group tied to Ferdinand Marcos, the dictator of the Philippines; Viktor Yanukovych, the ousted Ukrainian president and ally of Vladimir Putin; and Lynden Pindling, the former Bahamian prime minister who was accused of ties to drug traffickers.

Now, he works for Donald Trump.

And Cruz has a shady past and crafted the TPA, supported Roberts going to SCOTUS, and may not even be a US citizen at all (let alone a natural born citizen which he definitely is not).

And?

Jas 2:6 But you have dishonored the poor! Are not the rich oppressing you and dragging you into the courts?
Jas 2:7 Do they not blaspheme the good name of the one you belong to?
Jas 2:8 But if you fulfill the royal law as expressed in this scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you are doing well.

Sounds like it applies to the whole lot of them.

How is Trump abusing the poor?
