MIAMI (AP) — A federal judge on Thursday ordered President Donald Trump to sit for a deposition in his $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC by Dec. 11.

The order from U.S. Magistrate Judge Enjoliqué Lett came as BBC’s lawyers complained that Trump had delayed his appearance. Attorney Charles Tobin said that with two months left in the discovery period, “we still haven’t been able to depose the plaintiff.”

I wonder if Trump just drops the whole thing. The BBC aren't playing around and I think Trump is used to media organisations just backing down to him.

I do suspect that will happen, Trump does have a habit of backing off when faced with a hard NO.

The BBC seem to be using this to try and advance a story as well. I think they're loving it. They want to depose him and get stuff on record. I can't imagine he'll want to do that.

American media orgs do tend to just throw an out-of-court wad of cash at him to make him go away. He perhaps didn’t realise that the BBC’s charter forbids it from doing so. It is compelled to go to court. Trump is now in a bind, because if he drops the case the BBC is free to repeat the allegation. If he doesn’t drop it but drags his heels until the judge is forced to end it for him, the BBC can apply to the judge for costs. He may have been hoping simply to run down the deposition time limit but now the judge has made a specific order with a deadline which he can presumably be penalised for if he misses it.

Maybe Trump could just buy the BBC, the problem goes away and he'd find it a much better way of sharing his 'look at me' stories than his truth social media account

In other news, here are two separate occasions where he malfunctions mid-speech whilst on the campaign trail. Both occurred this week.

I am actually surprised he hasn't gone after the UK Government for not trying to stop the BBC. Obviously, we know that isn't how it works, but it hasn't stopped him before. I really don't think he wants anything brought out in the deposition that would then become public record (I think).

“No, Mr President, we meant the other Dana White. You know, Dana W. White, who served as the Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs and Chief Pentagon Spokesperson for the U.S. Department of Defense under Secretary James Mattis.“

There's a vicious rumour that when this name was put forward they actually meant Dana W White, who served in donnies first administration as chief defence spokesperson and it makes sense as she has experience in a similar role, is a good communicator, has a pleasant demeanour and as a black woman would hopefully dial down some of the grievances in those two demographics but the dementia don hears that name and assumes it's the ufc guy, someone who doesn't deal with the press well, melts down under scrutiny and hasn't done a similar role, I take it back actually, he'll fit right in with this party of amateurs, tell us again about sleep joe

US President Donald Trump has said he "was kidding" about asking Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) boss Dana White to be the White House press secretary.

Trump told the media on Sunday that White "loves the idea" but that the invitation was "just a little fun".
It comes after the president posted on his Truth Social platform on Saturday that he had offered White the role, asking him to take it while writing, "Dana will be a Press Secretary like none other."

White said later that day he was going to meet the president on Monday, but would not be drawn into whether or not he would take the vacant position.

On Sunday Trump told reporters White was visiting him on Monday for "other reasons".

"I think he's going to be in Washington. So he's going to come over and see me.

"I will tell you, I was only kidding. But Dana loves the idea. And there's only one Dana. He's great," the president said.

"But, it was it was just a little fun."

Yes I think your right!

When Trump eventually leaves, will it be considered as a great loss to comedy?
