Trump Sues Univision for $500M — and Reveals Reason He Thinks Network Really Cut Ties With Miss USA

Republican presidential candidate and billionaire real-estate mogul Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he has filed a $500 million lawsuit against Univision over the network’s decision to cut ties with the Miss USA pageant.

The network, which was under contract to air the pageant live in Spanish, said it would no longer do so after Trump’s controversial comments on those illegally entering the USA from Mexico.

Trump, however, contested Univision’s claim, contending the network’s move was really aimed at silencing his freedom of speech as he begins his presidential campaign. Trump said in a statement that nothing he has said was different from what he has been saying for “many years.”

Deeper and deeper he gets,just as I had predicted.Today I heard him slam NBC,Univision,the Miss America Pageant and Macy's all in one statement.I really wish I knew what all of this has to do with running for President.

Publicity hound. He wouldn't know what to do if he was actually elected to public office.

7:43 I wouldn't be too sure. Don't get me wrong - I'm not a huge supporter but Trump tells it like it is and he doesn't mind being a bully if its just. Perhaps it's time for a leader like that in Washington.

I hope that Trump wins the case. It is so refreshing to hear him speak his opinion on things and not be afraid of making someone mad. It is sad that in this day and time, a person can't say something that may offend someone. I hope that Trump remains in the race for President long enough to be in a debate with Hillary. It would be great to hear him call her out on all of her lies.
