Trump is all about the common man. You know, regular dudes who have NDAs with family members

This past Sunday, news broke that the president’s niece, Mary Trump, was on track to publish a “harrowing and salacious” book this summer about her world-famous uncle. By Sunday night, the president had been privately briefed on what he could expect from the upcoming book. By Tuesday, he had begun discussing siccing his lawyers on his niece.

According to two people familiar with the situation, Donald Trump has told people close to him that he’s getting his lawyers to look into the Mary Trump matter, to explore what could be done in the way of legal retribution—or at least a threat—likely in the form of a cease and desist letter. One of the sources with knowledge of the situation said that in the past couple of days, the president appeared irked by news of her book and at one point mentioned that Mary had signed an NDA years ago.

I mean, come on, show of hands... Which one of you is a liberal elitist who DOESN'T have a battalion of lawyers ready to go after a family member if they don't keep their filthy lying mouth shut?

If she never had dealings with him other than average family members do ... you know, like graduations, serial weddings events, watching her parents go to court against him to get her brother's medical insurance reinstated... why would someone who is not professionally associated with his slimy lifestyle or businesses ever be in a position to have a contractual obligation with him?

How could he be in a position to force her to sign an NDA? Even if it were to rent one of his cruddy overpriced apartments or get a family "college loan" under the table, she's still a niece, not an employee, a reality show contestant, or "business associate".
