I assume because he's not man enough to deal with politicians who laugh at him.
Needles to say, Lucy rocks.
Two variations on the same story, but they're both awesome.
Thinking about it gives me the warm fuzzies.

Trump sues teen girl for
slandering his good name with her cat website.
by May Wilkerson
A 17-year-old San Francisco high school student and future tech millionaire
named Lucy wanted to put a "fun, little" project on her resume before
she starts applying to jobs. So she created a website
called TrumpScratch.com, where users click on the president's face to scratch him with little cat paws.
Thinking about it gives me the warm fuzzies.
Lucy's game doesn't sound like much of a threat to national security. But we all know
by now the president's skin is thinner than an overripe kiwi. Three weeks
after her site went live, the teen received a cease and desist letter from
"Trump’s general counsel" in Trump tower in NYC, the Observer reports.
I’m sure you’re aware, the Trump name is internationally known and
famous," reads the letter, which describes Donald Trump as a "well-known
businessman."
Lucy is having none of it. “I was going to just let this go, but I think
it’s, pardon my French, fucking outrageous that the president of the United
States has his team scouring the internet for sites like mine to send out cease
and desists and legal action claims if we don’t shut down,” she told the
Observer in an email. “Meanwhile, he tweets about The Apprentice
ratings and sends out power-drunk tweets about phone tapping. HOW ABOUT BEING
THE PRESIDENT?”
Since the lawsuit, Lucy did agree to
change the name of the website to KittenFeed.com but she said “After changing,
they still came at me.”
Does this story make you angry? Me, too. For relief, may
I recommend spending a little time on KittenFeed.com. This
site is not only harmless as far as Trump jokes go, but it's also great for
mental health! Which will be especially necessary if (when) we all lose our
health care.
Try it. Trust me,
you’ll feel better.

Just Threatened To Sue A Teen Over Her Kitten Website
by Brian Tyler Cohen
Lucy, a 17-year-old from San Francisco, created a website
in which users can direct a digital kitten to scratch an image of Donald Trump
with its paws. Now, she has a cease-and-desist letter from the President of the
United States.
What started out as coding practice for Lucy has turned
into an all-out battle with Trump’s general counsel.
Per the Observer, Trump cease-and-desist letter begins
the only way we would expect – with a self-aggrandizing nod to our
in-desperate-need-of-validation President:
“As I’m sure
you’re aware, the Trump name is internationally known and famous.”
If Trump’s legal team was so concerned about damaging
Trump’s internationally known brand, maybe they should leave America’s children
alone and take away their boss’s Twitter account.
Per a recommendation from her lawyer, Lucy did ultimately
change the name of her website from TrumpScratch.com to KittenFeed.com. Still,
her response will make you question which one is the 17-year-old:
“I was going to
just let this go, but I think it’s, pardon my French, fu–ing outrageous that
the president of the United States has his team scouring the internet for sites
like mine to send out cease and desists and legal action claims if we don’t
shut down. Meanwhile, he tweets about The Apprentice ratings and sends
out power-drunk tweets about phone tapping. HOW ABOUT BEING THE
PRESIDENT?”
Today,
we are all Lucy.
