Nothing to do with Trump, but still pretty funny:

Business Insider: McDonald's lost a 'David versus Goliath' trademark battle over Big Macs to a small Irish rival called Supermac's

  • McDonald's has been stripped of its exclusive right to the "Big Mac" trademark in Europe.
  • It lost it after a challenge from a small Irish rival called Supermac's.
  • The conflict began when McDonald's asked European Union (EU) officials to prevent Supermac's opening outside of Ireland.
  • Supermac's doesn't sell a "Big Mac," but McDonald's said their name sounds too much like the iconic burger, and would give them an unfair advantage.
  • The EU Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) threw out McDonald's argument, and said Supermac is free to expand.
