Just reply with a lawsuit and let the courts settle it. Bullies need to be put in their place. Giving them your lunch money just makes them bolder.

Half the courts are the bully’s friend that he put into that position, just for this reason.

Oh? Then how has he lost 80% of his court cases?

Fair point, I’m actually surprised by that one. Still sucks he doesn’t really give a fuck what the courts say.

i'm still worried he'll just order the military to neutralize her.

That is the nice thing. The more people fight back, the less power people like Trump have to demand anyone to enforce their shit.

Everyone who rolled over and does what he says, despite it being illegal or immoral wants to do that. They support his idea of how the country should be governed. Especially the house Democrats that voted alongside the Republicans. These people want Fascism, hoping they get more money and power out of it for themselves.

Yep. And the inverse being true as well:

The people who rolled over did it because they are afraid of Trump and think he might go after them extralegally - despite these people being the exact ones who are meant to help ensure people like Trump have to answer to the law. Real prisoner's dilemma they got going on here.

Stop. Collaborate and listen.

Trump is back with a brand new conviction.

The alternative to him somehow getting the military to break the law now is to not sue and win in court, and he simply changes the law until it is legal and he does it anyways in the future, at which point it will be to late
