Totally on brand to bloviate for 80 pages before getting down to business in the last 5 pages. Calling the president's 85-page lawsuit "decidedly improper and impermissible," a federal judge in Tampa threw it out and gave him 28 days to file a new complaint that had to be under 40 pages. U.S. District Judge Steven D. Merryday blasted the Trump suit for alleging only two acts of defamation, yet "Count I appears on page eighty, and Count II appears on page eighty-three." He also criticized the suit's flowery descriptions about Trump and overly political language, writing a complaint is not a "public forum for vituperation and invective" or a "megaphone for public relations or a podium for a passionate oration at a political rally."
