As usual, this probably won’t amount to even so much as a slap on the gold-plated wrist for him

Well, that's kind of what a cease and desist is. It says, in a formal but mostly polite way, "stop doing that or we'll become less nice".
The watch website says the final version may not look like the pictures. Also they don't have a production or delivery timeline and no promises of delivery.

This guy doesn't even know how to breathe without doing something illegal, does he..?
"Lemme tell ya folks, people say I have the best lungs. Truly spectacular. I can inhale carbon dioxide and exhale fresh, clean oxygen. They tell me this is illegal. That I'm a Russian house plant. They're just jealous."

Add it on the pile hoss, there's a lot of shit to shovel
Trumpers razor, the correct solution is most often crime
I mean I'll lead by saying "fuck Trump" however I would be a little annoyed if I wanted to use a depiction of myself and someone came to yell at me about it.
Actually no, when you go to a professional photographer to have your picture taken, you pay for it. Because they put in the work and need to be compensated for it. By that logic people would never have to pay photographers for portraits, weddings, none of that. Just because you’re in a picture doesn’t mean you don’t owe a debt to the person who took it.

Yeah try getting copies of a copyrighted portrait made. Wedding photos, school portraits, you name it. Not yours.
Well yes and no.
A famus artist may sell a picture of theirs to a company, them RHAT company has the copyright, not you.
Lots of artists don't own their music, don't own their likeness either.
This would decimate the photography industry.

Meh. The courts are set up to prevent laws from ever applying to Trump anyway. What's copyright law on the bonfire?
ITT: people that have been stealing or paying for creative work through selling their data for so long they forgot (or never knew) laws about this exist and/or how they work.
Considering how many people think they're just one boring stream of them playing a video game away from making it big as a "content creator," it's petty shocking.
So, what about the political ad signs it's being used on? Is that legal? I saw them all over the place.
Political speech has stronger 1A protection than commercial speech and one could argue for a 'fair use' exemption. Strong enough to win on its merits? I don't know -- I'm not an IP lawyer, probably not. Strong enough that a well-funded legal team could get a federal judge, hesitant to make a ruling certain to be criticized as 'election interference,' to delay a decision until after the election when the signs are all being taken down anyway? I think so.

200m is how far you can walk before the watch falls apart.
The font/script they chose makes it look like it reads "anus dumper" in cursive.
Do you mean Trump's signature?
Throw it on the pile.
It looks like it's a re-drawn image and not an actual "copy" of the image, so wouldn't that mean they can't do fuck all about it? Obviously it was made to look like the image, but does that actually count for anything? I wouldn't think it would.
