Trump specifically alleged in the lawsuit that he filed that the BBC caused him to lose a bunch of money. He should expect the BBC to be able to obtain documents that would tend to prove or disprove how much money he lost.
His lawyers should have definitely seen this one coming. And they shouldn't wait until the day before the deadline to file their opposition. The one-day "emergency" is completely of their own creation.
Sounds like they were hoping for an out of court settlement that would make Trump a quick billion and they were in "any day now" mode, not expecting someone to fight back. The whole Strait of Hormuz thing went exactly the same.
It's almost like anyone still in this man's orbit has been preselected for being a fucking idiot
Actually selected. Anyone that says it's a stupid idea gets fired immediately until only idiotic yes-men remain.
