Snyder runs a business that markets its product to, among others, the residents of DC. And many residents of DC buy his product. Consumer protection laws administered by states and DC are empowered to file civil suits to protect their customers. This happens all the time, when AGs from various random states will get together to file lawsuits against giant multinational corporations.
All the speculation about the likelihood of winning the suit, what happens with a new AG, whether actual customers bought something they wouldn’t have if they’d known it was Dan who ordered the T&A video . . . all of that is beside the point.
Dan is under investigation for doing some truly sleazy shit, much of which probably violates the law. And he’s been lying about it. Lawsuits are a way to hold people accountable, to force people to tell the truth, to get the facts out. I couldn’t care less whether Racine is stretching or if he has some personal motive, or if he wins the suit.
Dan Snyder is a cockroach dressed up as a businessman, and we should all be shining the brightest possible light on him to flush him out into the open.
