President Trump sues the Wall Street Journal, Trump’s one time friend Rupert Murdoch is now feeling the heat of Trump. President Trump’s $ 10 billion lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) over a ‘fake letter’ to Jeffrey Epstein could have far-reaching implications for the renowned newspaper.
The WSJ claimed Trump sent the letter to Epstein for his fiftieth birthday. In response, the President sues Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp for libel and slander. Mr. Murdoch is the owner of Fox News, The Sun, and other right-leaning publications.
The Murdochs’ news empire, which includes Fox News, The Sun, and other right-wing rags, has a history of being on the losing end of libel and slander lawsuits. The previous loss to Dominion Vending Machines adds weight to President Trump’s allegations.
Dominion Voting Systems Lawsuit.
In November 2023, Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News settled with Dominion Voting Systems for a whopping $787.5 billion. In his libel suit, President Trump is seeking between $10 billion and $20 billion.
The Wall Street Journal has long been a conservative-led publication. In the past, the outlet’s Editorial Board was a staunch supporter of Trump. Lately, the Board has been leaning to the center-right.
However, this Epstein Letter shows the publication leaning in wazoo land. For unknown reasons, the Wall Street Journal has been trying to stick it to Trump up the wazoo.
The reason could be that they feel it’s because of Trump that they had to pay Dominion $ 787 billion. President Trump claimed that they used the Dominion machines to steal the 2020 election. Fox News chose to jump on the bandwagon–no one forced them.
President Trump has a unique way of speaking and writing. The WSJ Letter Appears to Be Off the Mark.
WSJ Unsubstantiated Jeffrey Epstein Birthday Letter.
Out of the blue, The Wall Street Journal presented a 22-year-old birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein ‘written by Trump.’ Upon reading the content of the Trump/Epstein birthday letter, it’s hard to believe that Donald J. Trump is its author, with a 95% chance of it being a fabrication.
President Trump has a distinct way of speaking and writing. Even when Trump pretended to be his own spokesperson, there was a clear pattern to his speech. His posts on social media are unmistakably his. The Wall Street Journal’s attempt to deceive is apparent, and it’s working on Trump.
Trump Fell For The Roper-a-dope
The WSJ/Trump/Epstein letter is a ruse to bring Trump into court. And President Trump fell for the ruse. Right now, the WSJ is playing possum, a tactic of pretending to be weak or in a losing position to deceive opponents. The Wall Street Journal refuses to show the letter. Therefore, 10 to 1 the letter exists, but not in the form presented to the public.
In court, during the discovery process, they’ll gain access to documents the DOJ declined to release. What a scoop!
When Trump thinks he’s got the Wall Street Journal on the ropes, they’ll produce something—the good old rope-a-dope counterattack. The letter may prove to be a bluff. By then, the WSJ will have access to information that has been hidden til now.
The Wall Street Journal anticipated that President Trump would sue. At the heart of the controversy is a leather binder kept by Jeffrey Epstein’s mistress, Ghislaine Maxwell. Ms. Maxwell is in federal prison serving a 20-year sentence for conspiring with Epstein.
The letter Trump allegedly wrote congratulated Epstein on his 50th birthday. The letter concluded with the words, “Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.” Also at the bottom of the letter is a stick drawing of a “naked” female with breasts, and Trump’s signature in the “pubic area.”
The President responded by saying, “I never wrote a picture in my life. I don’t draw pictures of women,” he said, according to the Journal. “It’s not my language. It’s not my words.”
Guilty By Association.
The “Epstein Birthday Letter” is a nothing-burger bucket of froth.
Trump once said that North Korea’s Kim Jong-Un sent him a beautiful love letter. That doesn’t mean the President is gay. The Wall Street Journal has now fallen into the same category as MSNBC and CNN.
The WSJ and other legacy media outlets are applying ‘guilt by association’ with President Trump. This concept suggests that a person can be judged by the company they keep. The old saying, ‘Show me your friends and I’ll tell you who you are,’ isn’t always true.
According to Trump, he doesn’t smoke or drink alcoholic beverages. Yet many people who don’t smoke weed have hung out with smokers and drinkers. The WSJ is using this concept to suggest that Trump’s association with Epstein reflects negatively on his character.
It’s strange how the President has become so worked up about this unimportant story. The “Defendants concocted this story to malign President Trump’s character and integrity,” Trump’s attorney said. Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal has claimed, “We have full confidence in the rigor and accuracy of our reporting, ” the Wall Street Journal claims. They went on to say, “We will vigorously defend against any lawsuit.”
Even Michael Cohen, Trump’s former attorney and a staunch detractor of Trump, said the letter doesn’t sound like something Trump would say.
The release of the so-called Trump letter to Jeffrey Epstein is a well-thought-out plan by the Wall Street Journal. President Trump’s lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal is short-sighted unless the President and his attorneys have a grand master plan that’s not clear to everyone else.
