Trump Has Major Meltdown After Fox News Runs Anti Trump Ad

The Lincoln Project paid to run an anti-Trump ad on Fox News recently, and it hurt Trump so much that he had his lawyers send a “cease and desist” letter to the group, demanding that they stop running the ad that calls him and his campaign a failure. The group said that they have no intention of backing down. Trump has the thinnest skin of anyone to ever run for public office, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Donald Trump officially has the thinnest skin of anyone to ever run for any political office here in the United States. And the reason I say that is because politicians all over the place, even local politicians, are subjected to attacks. You know, not necessarily physical attacks. Um, political attacks, right? From your political opponents, from your hometown newspaper, from the national media. If you're a national figure, attacks always come and you always lobby attacks right back at them. But this past week, Donald Trump was subjected to a political attack in the form of an ad put out by the Lincoln Project that they paid money to have run on Fox News, right? You're allowed to do that. If you've got the money and you've got the ad, you pay somebody, they will run it. They don't care. Fox News just sees green. They don't care what the content of the ad is.

And the ad was so infuriating to Donald Trump that he had his lawyers send a cease and desist letter to the Lincoln Project threatening legal action if they didn't stop running the ad. So what is so horrible, like, are, are they calling Donald Trump a killer? A murderer? Nope. They're just mentioning that the two people he has running his campaign, Chris Las Cavita and Susie Wiles suck at their job. That's it. I'll read you the text from the ad. They got it wrong. They told you that Biden should never quit. Uh, that you should spend all that time, all that money, so much money focusing on Biden, how He's too old now. It's Harris. She's younger than you by A lot faster on her feet, better than Biden was on camera. They were wrong, but they're wrong. A lot wrong that Vance would help you. You know, he's terrible wrong that you have the race sewn up. It's sad, Donald. They spend more time trying to keep you under control than trying to win more time, trying to keep you from looking at what they're spending, what they're doing behind your back. Sad If Susie and Chris got it so wrong, what else have they screwed up?

That's the ad. And everything they said right there is true. Unless of, you know, I, I don't know. But it, look, here's the thing, they're not even saying they're definitely abusing the money. So even that you couldn't sue over, not to mention it's a political ad and you are a public figure, as are they. So, uh, any kind of slander, libel, defamation here, you're not gonna win it. It doesn't meet that bar. Not to mention the fact that if you were to actually sue them, you would have to prove in court that none of these things are true. They would, wouldn't have to prove that they are true. You know, that's how defamation lawsuits work. You, the defendant, the person being sued, doesn't have to prove everything's true. You have to prove that it's not,

And you can't do that, I don't think. But this is ridiculous. He is threatening to sue this group because they put out an ad that he doesn't like an ad filled with facts. That's how thin skinned this little orange menace is. He is your stereotypical bully that the second you stand up to him, he starts whining and crying and running to mommy or the teacher like they're being so mean to me. I don't know what to do. Yeah, you've been bullying and pushing everybody around on the playground for years now. Somebody finally pushes you back gently, I might add. And you act like you just had your neck broken by them. You're a coward. You're a pansy. You're a weak and pathetic human being, Donald. But hey, if you wanna sue him, go ahead and sue him because it's only gonna make you and your lawyers and your campaign look even dumber than you already look.
