Donald Trump is trying to brush off the fact that he shared A.I.-generated images of Taylor Swift endorsing his campaign to his Truth Social account earlier this week, now claiming that he doesn’t know “anything about them.”

          I don’t think this kind of civil suit can result in jailtime. But depending on what strategy her lawyers pursue, they could argue the unauthorized use of her IP resulted in his campaign raising additional money, and thus be legal grounds for them to empty the campaign warchest and take away funds his campaign needs to operate just a few months before the election.

        The simple fact that she can hire better lawyers than him should have him scared that there’s actual consequences at stake.

          As much as we like to fantasize about an actual billionaire siccing her lawyers at the fake billionaire: She didn’t become a billionaire by just siccing her very expensive lawyers at just any Donald. You need to make sure the siccee can pay the damages, which I’m not sure this one can.
