Episode # 93
Today on Legalese, we are discussing the Supreme Court's decision in Vidal v. Elster (Also known as the "Trump Too Small" case).
This case arises from Steve Elster’s efforts to register the phrase “Trump Too Small” so that he could print and sell t-shirts bearing that phrase.
The court on Thursday, June 13, 2024 unanimously rejected an attempt to force the Patent and Trademark Office to accept the registration “Trump too small” as a trademark for T-shirts mocking the former president.

![Stromberg v California [Remaster]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Zo16BxtS_cU/mqdefault.jpg "Stromberg v California [Remaster]
This video is a remastered re-release of a very old episode I did on the case of Stromberg v California (1931)... This video was the very first in my series of Today In Supreme Court History...
I noticed this video had started generating a bunch of new views the past few days, and I noticed, like many of my old episodes, the sound quality was absolutely terrible, So this is not a new video, I just did some post-product on work on the original audio track and got it sounding MUCH better than the original episode.
This was a pivotal case because it was the very first time the Supreme Court incorporated the First Amendment protection of free expression on a State, rather than Federal level in 14th amendment jurisprudence based on substantive due process.
Enjoy!
