It reminds me of Trump's attempt to sue Bill Maher over a joke:

One of his areas of expertise was wage claims on behalf of workers who had been shorted by their employers. A woman came to him with a tale of how she had been summarily fired from her job as a school custodian, and the school delayed her final paycheck, and could he please do something about it?

My boss drafted his standard demand letter and sent it off to the district, citing the state laws on wage claims, the penalty wage provision, and attorney fee provision. A couple of days later, he gets a call from the district's lawyer and an invitation to come to the lawyer's office. Don't bring your client.

So he goes off to the other lawyer's office, and is introduced to the superintendent. Nice to meet you. We have a little video we'd like you to see. There had been a rash of thefts from school lockers and the video is shot through a classroom door window. Into the frame comes the client. She looks up and down the hall, tries the door of the locker. It's locked. She pulls out her custodian's keys and opens the locker. More surreptitious glances up and down the hall. She rummages around in the locker, finds a purse, and in full view of the camera, goes through the purse, a small wad of cash comes out and is quickly stuffed into her pocket. She then puts the purse back in the locker, another look around, closes the locker and exit, stage right. End of tape.

My boss sits there for a few moments then says, "Clearly my client was just trying to find change for a five." The top of the superintendent's head pops off his skull: "WHAT?!?!?!" The other lawyer says, "Calm down, Jerry. I think he's just joking." The case went away very quietly.
