They've just made an out of court settlement in another case.
The whole thing is such nonsense. The BBC were seriously out of line. They should have apologised profusely and made sure it couldn't happen again, maybe offered a token financial settlement. Trump should have graciously accepted that apology and a few quid and been content with the fact that the BBC embarrassed themselves. He would have actually improved his standing by being sensible about it.

I think whatever the Royal Charter, were the BBC to agree any out of court settlement where BBC money passed to Trümp there would be a massive outcry, lots regarding their license fees as going to Trůmp rather than of program creation and pushing some to switch to TV viewing that doesn't require a license.

As per court ruling, if he cannot produce records to prove financial harm, it won't get to court.
I wonder if the BBC has the balls (win or not) to counter sue for costs incurred.
Apparently, only 284 Americans watched the documentary. (Ffs petulant Trump) ...and besides, although the timeline was condensed by the producers, none of what was in the documentary was not true. At no point did Trump call back the insurrectionists - which he had both the power and the influence to do.

Personally I think people I don't like are as entitled to compensation for slander/libel just as much as people I do like. Whether license payers like it or not shouldn't be a factor. I would blame the BBC for getting themselves in that position.

Republicans get that warning every now and again. Its one of those themes he returns to when he has forgotten he has already said it. Like Greenland.

He said publicly some 6 months ago "...if the Democrats win, they'll impeach me, they'll impeach me...".
I hope his head is so mushed that he hasn't got the where with all to interfere with the mid terms enough to influence them and add all of the current mess he's not only got himself in, the noise, the Iran conflict. the very low polls ...
It's getting close to the mid-terms and he's failed to implement a lot of what he wants.
I actually think the Dems should have kept stum over any ambitions.

Here's a brilliant take-down of Trump's Tariff Tantrum against Canada.

It’s a bit weird that he realises he is doing stuff that will lead to impeachment yet continues to do it. Maybe rather than worrying about being impeached he could stop doing the stuff that will cause it. He also seems to miss the point that despite what he might be aiming for it is highly unlikely he’ll be President in just over two years and there are likely to be a range of civil and criminal cases resurrected / brought against him.

And I think that piece has come up with the best new name for Trump...

I think he is 100% banking on some kind of suspension of the Constitution or the courts being so politicised that he can find some legalistic way of avoiding consequences by having a Trump dynasty installed in perpetuity.
