    Jesus Christ. Thanks to Gawker/The Ultimate Nice Website, Trump’s about to be brought down for RAPE - just about the most horrifying thing that American voters genuinely ought to hear about. You’re really lifting your website’s reputation up with this, and I mean that seriously.

      This has been public knowledge for more than two decades, though. And historically, voters don’t give a shit about sex assault or the abuse of women in general. Expect him to now secure the MRA vote due to surviving such persecution.

      Oh, that’ll be perfect. “I’m for Trump!” “Me too! Let me explain how women are draining our precious bodily fluids, and give you a free fedora.” “...Is LaRouche still a thing?”

    Okay. I’m a lawyer. This guy makes me sad to admit it, especially given the reaction in some of these posts about lawyers in general.

    First, this guy Cohen is a shitheel. Not because he’s a lawyer, but because he’s soooo bad at it. It’s been the law since forever that the status of “spouse” is no defense to rape. So, he’s basically wrong.

    Second, threatening a reporter is sort of moronic. The press has some strong 1st Amendment protections. This too, has been basic law since forever.

    So what is he doing? Well, he’s scared. His position is weak, so he turns up the volume. As the old saying goes...if you have the facts, pound on the facts. If you have the law, pound on the law. If you have neither—pound on the table. This gent is doing that. That’s all. He’s a sad mean little windbag. And Trump could very well be a rapist.

    But, sadly, I’m in the grays. Boo. But you’re not going to hear me threaten Gawker and take Denton for his last nickel or something Because I'm a pro.

    It truly is comforting to know that Trump surrounds himself with people who are exactly like him.

    Any attorney’s out there? Is this (these threats and unbecoming behavior AND TOTAL FUCKING MISUNDERSTANDING OF THE LAW) a disbarable offense cause I really fucking hope that it is. Sadly, I doubt it is.

      There’s no prohibition on being an asshole, but there is this:

      EC 1-5 A lawyer should maintain high standards of professional conduct and should encourage other lawyers to do likewise. A lawyer should be temperate and dignified, and should refrain from all illegal and morally reprehensible conduct. Because of the lawyer’s position in society, even minor violations of law by a lawyer may tend to lessen public confidence in the legal profession. Obedience to law exemplifies respect for law. To lawyers especially, respect for the law should be more than a platitude.

    So I’m warning you, tread very fucking lightly, because what I’m going to do to you is going to be fucking disgusting. You understand me?

    You write a story that has Mr. Trump’s name in it, with the word ‘rape,’ and I’m going to mess your life up…for as long as you’re on this frickin’ planet…you’re going to have judgments against you, so much money, you’ll never know how to get out from underneath it.

    Did Bill Cosby’s lawyers publish their playbook or something?

    Donald held back Ivana’s arms and began to pull out fistfuls of hair from her scalp, as if to mirror the pain he felt from his own operation.

    Jesus FUCKING Christ, this is horrific. This ENTIRE this is disgusting. What the actual fuck is wrong with this overripe piece of moldy cantaloupe?

    Sam, can you ask him if it’s also legal for parents to kill their own kids? And can you steal from your cousins? And is it okay to burn down your in-laws’ house? Asking for a friend.

    Also, counterfeit money is legal in the closest bodega to your apartment; I’m pretty sure about that one.

      My first thought as well. I can’t believe how spectacularly unhinged and ugly of that response from his lawyer to the beast was. Cocaine, stress-meltdown, or psychopathy?
