Maybe the tweet isnt the full letter but the only reference to legal action l saw was reserving the rights to do stuff.
Is this just trump demanding an action so the law firm sent a letter to complain and mollify trump?

Most of the evidence cited in the complaint comes from undercover footage released this week by conservative activist James OKeefes Project Veritas, which in the past has used deceptive editing techniques to smear news organizations and progressive groups.

(2,769 posts)7. I just read this book:
"Plaintiff in Chief - A Portrait of Donald Trump in 3500+ Lawsuits"

"When sued or investigated or threatened, he used the law defensively, employing scorched-earth tactics such as delay, counterattack, obstruction, deflection, confusion, threats of ruin, and blanket assertion of attorney/client privilege to avoid accountability. And, he did it largely with great success.
.....
What's another lawsuit to the "greatest, biggest, suer (sic?) of all time.
