BUT MELANIA HAS NOT SUED - ALSO SHE WOULD BE FORCED TO TESTIFY

GET YOUR STORY RIGHT - MELANIA HAS “N O T” SUED

I find myself wondering who has been paying H. Biden's legal bills for the last several years.

Sorry, but I just cannot stand another Hunter Biden the victim story. But it's amusing that Melania is finally threatening to sue somebody. She ought to sue her husband for divorce.

You know who else they haven’t sued? Wikipedia, which also has them being introduced by Zampolli.

So here's how damages for torts work: you have the value of the situation before the alleged tort took place, in this case Hunter Biden (son of the 46th president, but made more famous by the promotion of him by the 45th president, with whom Melania may be acquainted) saying something, and the value of the situation after the alleged tort took place. And the difference is your damages.

In simple terms, if someone breaks your arm, you have the value of your body with an unbroken arm and the value with the arm broken, you subject the bigger one from the smaller one and get a number.

So, we have Melania's reputation before Hunter Biden said something and after Hunter Biden said something. The difference is her damages.

I'm guessing it's maybe in the $100 range at most. One, no one whose surname isn't Trump has ever given a flying fuck what Hunter Biden said, did, thought or anything else (apart from his dad, but he's not exactly "the general public"--Joe's unconditional love for Hunter is pretty much exactly why so many of us love Joe). And Melania's reputation is what it is, and to my mind it is unlikely to change.

If she thinks she had a billion dollars of reputation to lose she's full of shit. If she thinks what Hunter Biden said changed the value of her reputation by a billion dollars, she's both overvaluing the effect of a nonentity saying something no one gave a shit about and waaaaaaay overvaluing her reputation.

Well, this will surely remove Epstein from the attention of the public. Well done, Mel. Well done.

Whatever one chooses to be, work will be involved, alas. But cheer up anyway!

This lawsuit seems about as forthcoming as a Trump infrastructure bill. Not that any of the mouth breathing magaturds who were so confident this would send the entire Biden family to the poorhouse ( sue one, sue all, I guess) will ever ask why no lawsuit ever materialized.

Okay, reading that a dude named Zampolli threw a party at the Kit Kat club made me wonder if this wasn't a synopsis of a Sopranos episode. And why would you name a strip joint after a candyba... nevermind.

On another note, is that last name really Midelfart? Is there a way to pronounce it so it doesn’t sound like Middle Fart?

LOL on Hunter's response too. Good for him. I wouldn't give a fuck either—after all these assholes tortured his family. I love how they sit back cozy and comfortable accusing the Bidens of all manner of shit but then they immediately whine and cry when they get even a taste back. Must be nice to feel such comfort.

I bet there is some dirty shit in Racist Birther Trophy Wife's origin story too.

PAB has also never threatened to sue Noel Casler, who claims that PAB shit himself when there was a word he was unfamiliar with in the script. Words that a simple genius in finance could not be expected to know, like "arbitrage."

Casler also claims that they would take PAB to a changing room for a new diaper, and that the boom operators dubbed the show "the shit show" because that's what it smelled like to be in close proximity to "star."

I'm guessing PAB does not want to open up that can of worms because Casler could bring receipts.

So Melania wrote a book called "Melania." BORING.

Shouldn't that have been Melanija? It would have made it more interesting, anyway.
