    Ivanka Trump hit with Class-Action Lawsuit

    Ivanka Trump Sued for Alleged ‘Unfair Competition” by Clothing Rival

    http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/...-rival-n736041

    Ivanka Trump's clothing company has been with a class action lawsuit by a San Francisco rag trade rival who claims she is cashing in on her pop being President of the United States.

    Modern Appealing Clothing (MAC) says the First Daughter 's firm has also gained an "unfair advantage" from from her husband Jared "working for the President of the United States" and charged that President Trump, his trusted adviser Kellyanne Conway, and White House spokesman Sean Spicer have all helped boost sales of Ivanka Trump Marks LLC products.

    "That advantage is specifically prohibited by the Constitution and laws of the United States and the law of the State of California," MAC claimed in court documents filed last week in San Francisco Superior Court and first obtained by the International Business Times.

    Ivanka Trump and her "employees and agents have" been "exploiting the power and prestige of the White House for personal gain, including, but not limited to, piggy-backing promotion of defendant Ivanka Trump products on appearances at executive branch and other governmental events."

    MAC is seeking a restraining order that would bar any Ivanka Trump label clothing or accessories from being sold in California.

    "As a result of their unlawful acts, defendants have reaped and continue to reap benefits and illegal profits at the expense of plaintiff MAC and the Class it seeks to represent," the papers state.

    This case is similar to the one where a restaurant is suing Trump for owning Trump Tower in DC and taking business away from his restaurant.

    I don't expect that either case will go anywhere.

    The gal who filed the suit needs to go after the snowflake who is heading up the #GrabYourWallet campaign that launched Ivanka's products into the limelight. That's the one who's responsible for citizens buying Ivanka's products at an increased rate.

    This suit isn't going anywhere, anyway. The gal has to prove damages and just because Ivanka is seeing success doesn't mean the people buying Ivanka's products would have bought hers. Likely, hers simply don't sell well because folks don't want them anyway.

    Like my attorney always tells me when I ask him if I should file a suit -- "You can sue the Pope for rape...but, you might not win."
