Sues Miss USA contestant Sheena Monnin for calling pageant rigged

After Miss Pennsylvania Sheena Monnin resigned and claimed the Miss USA pageant was rigged, Trump publicly attacked her as a "loser" suffering from "loser's remorse" and filed a $10 million defamation lawsuit against her. An arbitrator later ordered Monnin to pay $5 million, a devastating sum for a private citizen, demonstrating Trump's willingness to use overwhelming legal force to crush critics and protect his brand.
