Trump attorney sends Bannon a "cease & desist" letter

Being reported by Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC. Apparently ABC is the source.

Lawyers on behalf of President Donald Trump sent a letter Wednesday night to former White House Chief Strategist Stephen Bannon demanding he refrain from making disparaging comments against the president and his family.

The letter, comes after excerpts from a forthcoming book by journalist Michael Wolff were made public Wednesday, causing a stir.

Trump attorney Charles Harder said in a statement, "This law firm represents President Donald J. Trump and Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. On behalf of our clients, legal notice was issued today to Stephen K. Bannon, that his actions of communicating with author Michael Wolff regarding an upcoming book give rise to numerous legal claims including defamation by libel and slander, and breach of his written confidentiality and non-disparagement agreement with our clients. Legal action is imminent."

In the letter to Bannon, Harder, writes, “You [Bannon] have breached the Agreement by, among other things, communicating with author Michael Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members, and the Company [the campaign], disclosing Confidential Information to Mr. Wolff, and making disparaging statements and in some cases outright defamatory statements to Mr. Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members.”

In the letter, Trump’s attorney says that “remedies for your breach of the agreement include but are not limited to monetary damages” though no dollar amount is disclosed.

Bannon has not responded to ABC News' request for comment.

Well, since the horse is already out of the barn - it seems a little late to close the barn door. Although Trump's lawyers may be able to shut Bannon up - they can't stop the book.

Hmmm. Trump had employees sign a nondisclosure agreement, but I doubt that pertains to Bannon who was officially on the Federal Government's payroll--:badgrin:

But it looks like the carnivores are starting to eat each other.

Someone said if you take Steve Bannon's supporters from Trump, then Trump's approval rating is probably in the 20's.

Can you imagine? In the 20's?

Non disclosure was only for the campaign. The book happens during the time in office.

That's fun. Trump telling others not to disparage him. This is a guy who lets rip every time it suits him.

What's the expression? People in glass houses shouldn't.....
 
I told you guys, Bannon is playing with fire and a lawsuit would only be the beginning. He should have walked away quietly, he was a leaker and he should know first hand that Trump and his base is not going to turn on Trump. Furthermore, these exposes work both ways...remember those last words.

He had a job, he overplayed his hand and he was released. If he is this committed to whatever his cause is, so be it, God bless him for standing his ground, I subscribe to that belief system myself. if this is to try and derail Trump, don't do it, this isn't the hand you bite, he gave you a great opportunity and great exposure, just move along quietly.

Oh, and in November Bannon himself said the Russian issue is a farce, so he is potentially breaking the law with his comment attributed to him in the book if he is associating his kids as the Russian go-between.

Sounds like the Pub congress also signed a confidentiality agreement. Lets not let them off the hook. Most of them sat by and watched the nightmare.
 
The author is a lying POS....you all will see...

If what the author wrote is untrue then Bannon has a huge media outlet in which to dispute the claims. Instead all Breitbart is reporting on the issue is what everybody else is reporting. Then we have the quick and brutal backlash against Bannon by Trump himself. Some things may be embellished, but based on how things are going down it's obvious that there's some truth to what the author wrote.
 
Michael Wolff's book is even more entertaining than Christopher Steele's dossier.

The trouble is that Trump cannot win with just his base. We also know Trump Jr met with Russians to get dirt on Clinton. In 1 case he did act as a go-between.

He hasn't said anything. All we know is a book claimed he said it! :rofl:

Go Bannon! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

He is using an old Commie trick that Trump won't fall for, nor his lawyers. Someone will be paying the Piper if he pursues this line of attack, you can bet on it.

He has also opened himself up to being sequestered in front of the government to answer questions regarding his claim, as the Dems are excited about such comments in their efforts to try and overturn the election results. Stay tuned.

He is not going to be sequestered before the government. No one is going to pay as Trump has no claim. The only thing he has done is juiced up book sales.
