Donald Trump Will Sue Bill Mahr If He Doesn't Pay Him 5 Million
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/0...n_2449580.html
"On Wednesday, Donald Trump told "Extra" that he will "probably sue" comedian Bill Maher if Maher does not pay Donald Trump $5 million he believes he is owed after Trump proved to Maher that his mother did not have sex with an orangutan."

Watching that clip with Elisabeth Hasselbeck, I see now why they call it The View.

Making that threat could actually be illegal.

Why can't Trump and Maher just fight it out in a Pay for View bout, with the proceeds going to charity (such as the U.S. Treasury)?

Trump is the king of self marketing. Nothing will come of this.

How about Megyn Kelly and Elizabeth Hasselback fight it out instead?
In a pit of baby oil, of course.

If it's done with no actual intent to sue. That's obviously difficult to prove most of the time, but for a publicity hound like Trump I think it might be easier.

They're both idiots, but at least Trump builds skyscrapers.

I see, thanks. And what is the rationale for not being able to make idle threats? Potential damage to the threatened by sponsors being scared away and such?

Trump has reproduced though, multiple times. Maher will die childless, and unwed. Not only do we have to contend with Trump's eyesores, but we also have to deal with his progeny. Advantage, Maher.

I'm afraid you're confusing Trump with Bush, the guy you voted for a fourth term.

Trump hasn't built ANYTHING without tax concessions, preferred financing, kick backs, etc.
