Cease and Desist . . . or what? Be sued for depicting the truth?

And if the movie is defaming, who's fault is that?

Doesn't Trump know . . . trying to block the distribution only increases the demand.

There are so many public documentary bios of Trump on You Tube, featuring his ruthless rise to become a fake millionaire in New York, I hardly think a movie will be grounds for a lawsuit.

These documentaries tell everything in excruciating detail. I was surprised to learn a few things that I didn't know before, especially about Roy Cohn dying of Aids.

I knew that when I saw Angels In America - Millennium Approaches

Cancel culture, MAGAt style.

But, more importantly, this is what conservatives wanted. We have unlimited campaign donations because conservatives on the Supreme Court wanted Citizens United to be able to create a movie about Hillary Clinton to hurt her before the election.

Though, conservatives do love to whine when their own crappy rulings (to achieve a political outcome) come back around to bite them.

Trump has something much more important than 'all of the above' to ban ~~~ in one fell swoop.

The U.S. Constitution.

He's already published his intentions. (Project 2025) And that ain't hyperbole.

Picture yourself under the control of a paranoid, insecure, psychopath without a shred of conscience nor any rules nor guardrails.

Then picture yourself and your family living helplessly in a life filled with fear and anxiety that the next subject of his wrath could be you or someone you love.

Think that can't happen?

Vote for Trump and find out.

I wonder how they explained away the fact that there's a scotus decision about this very issue.

If the orange turd is trying to kill it the movie must be very good.

And who ever got the letter will fold.

The fascist empire depends on it.

You just described what it's like living under US foreign policy from any country on the globe since around 1980.
