The tabloid news company American Media Inc. agreed to let a former Playboy model out of a contract that had kept her from talking freely about an alleged affair with Donald J. Trump, her lawyer said.
The settlement agreement, reached Wednesday, ends a lawsuit brought by the model, Karen McDougal, and protects the president from being drawn into a legal case involving efforts to buy the silence of women who had stories to tell about him during the 2016 campaign.
He still faces another lawsuit, from the pornographic film star Stephanie Clifford, who is suing to get out of a deal that Mr. Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen, arranged in 2016 for her silence about an alleged affair.
In August 2016 American Media, which owns The National Enquirer, acquired the rights to Ms. McDougal’s story about Mr. Trump — which it never ran — in return for $150,000 and commitments to use its magazines to promote her current career as a fitness specialist.
Under the terms of Wednesday’s settlement, American Media has the right to up to $75,000 of any future profits from her story about the alleged affair, which Mr. Trump denies. According to her lawyer, Peter K. Stris, Ms. McDougal can keep the $150,000 payment and the publisher will retain the rights to photographs of her that it already has. American Media said that it also maintained the right to publish columns about Ms. McDougal.
“It’s a total win,” Mr. Stris said in an interview. “We got everything we were fighting for — she got out of the contract, gets the life rights back and owes A.M.I. nothing more.”

America yawns.
who the hell cares about this bimbo slut...I don’t....didn’t vote for Trump because he’s an altar boy...I voted for him because we needed a MAN with balls...
This is the sound of me not caring....
“Under the terms of Wednesday’s settlement, American Media has the right to up to $75,000 of any future profits from her story about the alleged affair,”
Follow the money.
So trump was banging the Playmate of the year 10 years ago. He should be so ashamed. Picked her up at the Playboy Mansion, shocking.
So the left is gonna rely on skanks and illegals, in addition to committing massive vote fraud, to help them win the midterms!
Quoting the female Trump voters who were interviewed by an incredulous CNN reporter:
“I knew he wasn’t a choir boy when I voted for him”.
They don’t get it!
We DO NOT care.
America yawns and says , JFK
Anyone notice we have gone from the New York Times saying Russia, Russia, Russia everyday to Trump had sex with these women.
They are very desperate, and I did not elect a goody two shoes. First I could care less about who POTUS had sex with. I did not elect him for that reason.
Second I think it’s funny how they ignore the women Bill Clinton raped and defended Bill Clinton with women. 100% completely hypocrites!
“I want America to know EXACTLY how much of a whore I am! They don’t know the half of it!”
The Democrat Party has gone from the “nuts and sluts” defense to the “nuts and sluts” prosecution. It’s like Bill Clinton come full circle. I can’t wait to hear Carville talk about dragging a $10 bill through a trailer park again.
Another gold digger ho wanting to get in on some big, free bucks and the fame for bringing down a U.S. president. A whole chapter about her ho @$$ in the school hostory books. KMA Ho!
I wonder which network will get the next softcore porn special?
I’ve been invited to the Mansion three times. First I went just to network and yeah, I went to the grotto and it was effing gross.
Exactly who cares? That’s between him and his wife...
Nobody cared about Clinton, either. If he had just done the right thing, said “I’m sorry” and settled, he would never have gotten himself into the perjury situation in the first place. We all knew what he was like, and that he and Hillary were in a marriage of convenience.
That really didn’t matter. It was the perjury that did him in. And I have always thought that it was the angry Hillary who kept him from just admitting guilt, settling and moving on.
I’m not approving of Trump’s behavior but that’s something between him and his wife.
Awful nice of'm, don't you think...... :)
