Donald J. Trump? @realDonaldTrump

I think you may have left off the part where he threatens them.

Would this qualify as hitleresque?

NYT is up almost $2 since this time last year, Trump is, quite ironically, a huge boon for them.

Poor thing can't handle people not saying nice things about him. Gonna sue them for libel. At least he spelled libel correctly.

Truth. That paper is a shell of its former self, but Trump is the best advertising for them by far.

The stuff they say about him does border on libel.

Obama has too much class, but I wish he would sue Trump for libel.

Suing equals low-class? I wish Obama would sue him too. The discovery would be amazing. I'd love to draft the interrogatories for that suit.

He could always just "repeal" NYT v. Sullivan and its progeny. Since he apparently thinks you can just wave a wand and make Supreme Court rulings and years of rulings thereafter go away.
