I'm quite surprised. From the outside, how the US appears, I would have expected Trump to do some BS or the courts threw it out because free speech for psychopaths etc. But somehow that didn't happen?

Let's just say he made the grave mistake of disrespecting dead children, and that pissed off too many people, prompting a class action.

Let's also not forget the shitshow that is the court proceeding, where his lawyer 'accidentally' leaked his text, and he went with a no-show.

Last but not least, he's never in Trump's circle. He acts like he is, but those people probably don't even know he exists.
