Newsmax CEO and apparent confidante of President Donald Trump, Chris Ruddy, sat down with ABC News This Week today to discuss a variety of issues facing the president. Aside from potential upcoming shifts in personnel management , perhaps the most revealing moment of the interview came when he was asked about Stormy Daniels.
Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, has accused President Trump of having an affair with her prior to his 2016 presidential run. Stormy, politely put, is an adult film actress and also an exotic dancer. In other words, she is a porn star and stripper.
Tonight, in a supposed-tell all interview on CBS 60 Minutes, she will go into detail explaining the affair, an alleged cover up, and subsequent hush money as well as signed legal documents from Trump’s attorney proving this is all true.
But, according to Ruddy, President Trump says this is all a “political hoax.”
“OK, Chris. I want to turn to the president’s mindset about this interview with Stormy Daniels, the interview with Karen McDougal. Did he watch those interviews? And tell us what he’s thinking,” asked host Martha Raddatz.
“Well, you know, I can’t tell you everything he’s thinking, I can only tell you what he told me. He said he thought that -- that much of the Stormy Daniels stuff was a political hoax. Again, those were his words,” said Ruddy.
“So he thinks they’re lying. Even though Stormy Daniels got $130,000,” Raddazts asked for clarification.
Ruddy then questioned what exactly 60 Minutes is going to ask Stormy Daniels and pointed how thorough the media is being with Trump’s alleged scandals, yet constantly give Democrats a pass on scandals of their own.
“I’ll let him characterize. You know, you have to look at this case. You’re a straightforward journalist. I really think you’re fair-minded. When you watch this -- this interview on CBS, 60 Minutes, you’re going to be looking for the same question I’m looking for. Are they going to ask her Stormy, why did you hit -- hire a political hit Democratic attorney, Michael Avenatti, who’s worked for 150 Democratic political campaigns, Joe Biden’s campaign, worked for Rahm Emanuel," Ruddy posited.
"Who’s operating on funding her tremendous public relations effort? And you know, at the bottom line, there’s just never been a claim of harassment. So the president looks at this and I think he’s looking at it like I’m looking at it. This is politically motivated to hurt and embarrass him in some way. And you know what, the end of the day, the poll numbers for the president are up. Gallop has him at a record 40 percent, the Rasmussen at 48 percent approval. So I think the American people are really dismissing this as political -- political witch hunts, ” the Newsmax CEO questioned.
Ruddy's interview can be watched below.
I might care if the media held all scandals to the same standard. But I will not care as long as they continue to ignore democrats and give them a pass.
CBS, has become a joke and from what I hear they are looking at their own scandal coming down the pike. The New York Times has the story but are holding it while lawyers comb through it for accuracy..
“” She’s a porn slut trying to make a name for herself “”
She’s nothing more than a toilet.
Well, we are now, I guess. Indeed, if he had an affair, I'm surprised liberals don't like Trump better for it.
Mainstream news turns tabloid.
They finally found their niche.
I think you are on to something @ post 17. Most of us knew Trump was allegedly a bit of a cad back in the day and this is over 10 years old. How this did not come out during the election with the amount of opposition research is quite mysterious.
We all know that crap is king.
Constitutionally speaking that brat was not eligible to hold the office, and he was as lazy as any life long welfare recipient. He was merely a puppet, I have heard him speak before they packaged him up with the teleprompter.
Reality is, too many calling themselves 'republican', do not give a damn about their oath of office... They are little different than the liberal political oligarchs... and 'We the people' have become their slaves.
If he did hit it I hope he had on a full body condom. She look nasty.

60 Minutes is exalting a whore tonight? Perfect example of how far down this country has gone.
Over 10 years ago with a billionaire playboy. Multiple marriages. Just the kind of guy which broke the phony pretensions of the MSM and the political class. I’m all shook up.
Chris Ruddy’s work on Whitewater was first rate journalism.
Stormy was unnecessary in 2016, because the Rats were counting on easy win by crooked Hillary.
President Trump is an admitted germ-o-phobe.
It’s seriously difficult to imagine ANY germ-o-phobe wanting to have sex with a disgusting whore who screws for money.
It is, however, quite easy to imagine our enemies on the left (which includes 99.99% of the media + Drudge) pushing this crap. They’ve done it before - over and over, and sometimes it works.
“The Hill” headline o’ the hour
“The Trumps will be apart when Daniels interview airs”
In other words, she's a prostitute. In other words, she's a hooker. In other words, she's a whore. There are a whole lot of other words ...
The Rats were counting on an easy win by crooked Hillary in 2016. Stormy was NOT NEEDED.
After the Rats were shocked by defeat of crooked Hillary by Trump, this is the swamp attempting to remove Trump from office by hook or crook.
Melania did not know Trump was a Billionaire playboy before she married him? Was she expecting to marry a choir boy?
