    Why not 15 kajillion dollars?

    Trump’s obsession with scale clearly indicates that he’s overcompensating for some kind of shortfall.

    I keep being on the edge of cancelling my subscription. Then I realize my $4/mo[*] is helping fund NYT’s legal defense.

    • Protip: Subscribe to NYT, then cancel your subscription. At the last last minute before you click the final ‘Cancel’, they will offer you $4/mo instead of $25/mo

    The media continues to un-self-critically just repeat whatever self-serving nonsense comes out of Trump’s mouth.

    Hey, CNN (and all the other outlets reporting this as a “$15 billion lawsuit”): Trump is using your headline to legitimize a made-up value to a frivolous legal claim, and you are increasing his power by reporting on it as if it isn’t nonsense.

    It’s “Democratic Party.” “Democrat Party” is something Confederates say. The article itself uses the correct name.
