LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Donald Trump has threatened a suit against Angelo Carusone concerning his Macy’s petition. Donald Trump threatens a twenty-five million dollar lawsuit against a SignOn.org petitioner Angelo Carusone in a new battle revealed today.

Trump is furious with Angelo Carusone. So he has sent a threatening letter to Angelo. And while it remains unclear if Trump really intends to sue Angelo, the court of public opinion is already out about the latest legal trouble for The Donald.

Next, Angelo retained Paul Levy of Public Citizen. Levy writes “There is a well-established First Amendment right to advocate a boycott over policy-related objections … I have no reason to believe that there is a tort of exaggerating the public support for a political campaign. If there were such a tort, I imagine that most candidates for public office, no doubt including your client, would be liable at one point or another.” Trump has yet to comment about the latest round. Just ironically, Trump’s current public spat surfaces weeks before a new season of the Apprentice.

ST LOUIS (LALATE) – Donald Trump slammed the GOP Fiscal Cliff negotiations last night. Donald Trump slammed GOP leaders claiming that they do not have adequate negotiations skills during Tuesday’s Fiscal Cliff talks.

Shortly after the start of the New Year, Trump predicted an usual 2013 ahead. “It will be an interesting one!” While it remains unclear what he predicts will be “interesting” this year, on Tuesday he denounced GOP leaders.

Trump said “Obama and the Democrats are laughing at the deal they just made.” At issue was Trump’s assessment of the outcome announced from the Fiscal Cliff deal. “The Republicans got nothing!”

Trump went on to claim that the Republicans who brokered the deal, in his opinion, didn’t server their party. “I am a Republican…but the Republicans may be the worst negotiators in history!” But Trump claims that the debate is far from over. “Maybe Boehner will stop this one sided deal in the House.” Trump still believes that a new deal may be brokered. “I hope so!”

Ironically, Trump couldn’t broker his own deal last fall during his purported October Surprise. At the time, he told news that he had an offer for Obama that the President “could not refuse”. “If he releases these records, it will end the question and indeed the anger of many Americans … they’ll know something about their president … their president will become transparent … like other presidents.” Ultimately, the President did refuse the offer.

ST LOUIS (LALATE) – Mark Cuban has offered Donald Trump $1 million to shave his head in his “November Surprise”. After Donald Trump’s $5 million offer to Obama drew mockery from the President, and reference during late night talk show appearances, Trump fumed this week.

Trump initially sought Obama’s collegiate records in exchange for a donation to an Obama charity. Trump told news “If he releases these records, it will end the question and indeed the anger of many Americans.” He added “they’ll know something about their president … their president will become transparent … like other presidents.”

After The President ignored The Donald, Trump told news “Why does Obama believe he shouldn’t comply with record releases that his predecessors did of their own volition? Hiding something?”

Now, one man who has enough of this is Mark Cuban. “Donald, you shave your head, $1 million to any charity you want”, Cuban told news. He also suggested that he might increase the bid to $2 million. Cuban also told Fox 4 News Dallas that “The offer he [Trump] made for $5 million that was one of the dumbest things ever.”

Trump has yet to reply to the offer. During an infamous CNN broadcast (photo above), Larry King once questioned Trump if his hair was all real.
