A lawyer for President Donald Trump arranged a $130,000 payment to a former adult-film star a month before the 2016 election as part of an agreement that precluded her from publicly discussing an alleged sexual encounter with Mr. Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.
Michael Cohen, who spent nearly a decade as a top attorney at the Trump Organization, arranged payment to the woman, Stephanie Clifford, in October 2016 after her lawyer negotiated the nondisclosure agreement with Mr. Cohen, these people said.
Ms. Clifford, whose stage name is Stormy Daniels, has privately alleged the encounter with Mr. Trump took place after they met at a July 2006 celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, these people said. Mr. Trump married Melania Trump in 2005.
Mr. Trump faced other allegations during his campaign of inappropriate behavior with women, and vehemently denied them. In this matter, there is no allegation of a nonconsensual interaction.
“These are old, recycled reports, which were published and strongly denied prior to the election,” a White House official said, responding to the allegation of a sexual encounter involving Mr. Trump and Ms. Clifford. The official declined to respond to questions about an agreement with Ms. Clifford. It isn’t known whether Mr. Trump was aware of any agreement or payment involving her.

this is just the gathering of stories prior to the SoU where they are planning to put on a show targeting Trump’s said sexual misconduct.
I for one didn’t vote for Trump to be my spouse.

Because there isn’t a forum called “Sh!thole”. Which is where this kind of stuff belongs, and where it comes from.

Yeah? Well maybe the ‘Rats can invite Ms. Stormy to the SOTU just as Trump invited Slick’s rape victims to the debate.
lolol. I for one, would not object to looking at those during the speech. No sir.
For him, that’s like me flipping a penny to a bum to stay away from the church the day my daughter is getting married.... and him agreeing to it.
Does anybody, anywhere, believe that Trump, the well-known germaphobe who doesn’t even like to shake hands, would stick it in a pornstar?
Silicone polymer chain.
The Liberal Media simply invent such nonsense about the president.
My guess is the Fusion GPS goulash is about to hit the fan.
Monday the inspector general for the DoJ releases his report.
I just can’t imagine why the charming Miss Daniels made me think of polysiloxanes.
I bet she could stir the water without the use of a paddle.
She may not know much about chemistry, but she sure is organic.
HELLO, Stormy. Talk to Daddy!
Monday is a DC Holiday.
It would be newsworthy if this happened in the oval office, or it happened while he was married, or she was underaged or it was with a homo. Apparently none of this is evident. So, aside from someone alleging he had a tryst with someone of ill repute, it is a nothing burger. I don’t even think this was in the dossier or she is Russian.
Whatever might have happened, it wasn’t illegal, unlike the Bent One.
