Justice Department asks Supreme Court to block trademark ‘Trump too small’
The Biden administration is asking the Supreme Court to halt the trademark “Trump too small” in a legal battle over political speech and First Amendment rights where a federal law bans the use of an official’s name without their permission for trademarks.
Just so it's clear, this case is not about whether someone can put "Trump too small" on a T-shirt. They absolutely can.
The question is whether someone can trademark the phrase and thus prohibit everyone else from putting "Trump too small" on different T-shirts. The DoJ argues they can't trademark it, which means that everyone else can also put the phrase on a T-shirt or other products (unlike, say, "Super Bowl").
The DoJ isn't doing Trump any favors.
"Trump too small" is a bad slogan and anyone who puts that on a shirt could probably think of something better
Ah, yes. The Moony Times. I suppose it was just a matter of time before someone linked to that troll site.
Yes, regardless of political persuasion, fuck the moonies .
We raise a stink and cry sexism anytime a conservative makes a comment about a female Democrat’s clothing, but act like making fun of a male Republican’s genitals is totally fair game.
(sigh) Hypocrisy knows no political stripe.
Edit: Also, apparently so does sly editing. The commenter above changed their comment to omit the comment THEY made about Trump’s junk. Now I’m getting downvotes because no one gets what I was talking about.
Too many shitty, dishonest people on Lemmy, I’m out.
I'll tell you what. The day Trump stops attacking people for their appearance and physical attributes, we’ll quit giving him a taste of his own medicine. Sound good, bud? Fantastic.
To be fair, female Democrats aren't legislating male bodies. It's all on male conservatives (for the most part. Female conservatives aren't blameless in their control of other women.). Conservatives should stop controlling sexual lives of people. In addition, they should stop enacting laws that involves controlling women. Then maybe your comment is more receptive.

Small hands; small trademark
