Now, at first blush, I would normally say, “Ha Ha! He’s a liberal, he gets what’s coming to him!” However, in this case, I will refrain from much nonsense. This below is a perfect example as to why I simply refuse to blog about rumors, gossip and such.
From the Liberal Blog, called Liberal America:
Just so we’re being completely transparent here, you should know this:
This is being written under duress because I don’t have enough money to fight a legal battle against the Trump machine. Yesterday, I wrote a story based on Melania Trump allegedly having been an escort or paid sex worker when she arrived in New York. A few hours later, the owner of Liberal America received an email threatening us with legal action if we didn’t do as the Trump attorneys instructed — remove the “false statements.” So this is my apology.
First of all, I’m very very sorry that I wrote an article about the past of Melania Trump. I got my information from reputable sources and reported on what was being reported there, but apparently that isn’t good enough to pass muster in the version of American freedom of the press envisioned by Mr. Trump and his team of legal vultures.
Additionally, I’m also sorry that the personal image of the wannabe first lady is so insecure that she feels the need to send her legal hell-hounds chasing after small, independent journalists such as me. I had no idea I was such a threat to the Trump campaign or family. Imagine my surprise.
Andrew Bradford goes on:
But most of all I’m sorry that in Donald and Melania Trump’s view of how this republic works, they think it’s in keeping with the spirit of the First Amendment to threaten, intimidate, and harass reporters. Just the fact that they immediately felt the need to get lawyers involved proves that they don’t believe in preserving, protecting, or defending the Constitution, even though every President has to make a pledge to do so when he or she takes the oath of office. In Donald Trump’s world, the Constitution only applies to those who can afford to hire expensive legal mouthpieces.
It is quite telling about Trump isn’t it?
Here’s the official document:
It is going to be a long election season folks. 🙄 I do not recall Ronald Reagan threatening to sue anyone for something that was said, that he did not like.

I think what you said was pretty malicious and I’d sue too. If you didn’t verify that 110% you were irresponsible and I do believe in the Constitution and freedom of a responsible press. You made yourself sound like a slander rag. Hillary and Bill don’t have such great moral reputations but they have each sought the public eye. Melania is a mother and a quiet mother at that. She is not running for anything. Behave yourself or I hope your mother corrects you!
Here’s the whole problem with that. I didn’t write that; I quoted another blog. So, you might want to reread the posting.
You’re welcome.
