11. And what would that number work out to.

I realize that people don’t generally get that civil lawsuits are about sticking numbers on things.

But the fact remains that it is necessary to show economic loss. For example, if you are a bricklayer and someone falsely says you are a bad bricklayer, then you’d show that you lost $x amount of business as a result.

So, please... identify a statement that Trump has made about her, and identify the manner in which it has damaged her economically or, for that matter, in any other way.

In point of fact, the entire controversy over her voluntarily fucking Trump has been her principal source of income for months now. There is no sane person who does not believe she had sex with Trump.

So what is it that has harmed her in any calculable way, and in what amount do you estimate?
