President Trump on Tuesday referred to the pornographic film actress Stephanie Clifford as “Horseface” in a Twitter post, as he gloated about a recent court ruling in his favor.
In his tweet, Mr. Trump was referring to a federal judge’s decision to dismiss a defamation suit filed by Ms. Clifford, who is known professionally as Stormy Daniels. The judge also ordered Ms. Clifford to pay the president’s related legal fees.
The president’s use of the term “horseface” was jarring, even though he has previously used similar disparaging language to describe women who challenge him. But it could also prove problematic for Republicans facing female opponents in the upcoming midterm elections, now just weeks away.
Ms. Clifford’s attorney, Michael Avenatti, fired back on Twitter, calling the president a “disgusting misogynist and an embarrassment to the United States.”

He does this to distract from something else . Probably to distract from Saudi Arabia. I wouldn’t be surprised if stormy and him are friends and this is all kabooki theatre.
I doubt it.
We haven't heard the last about Stormy, or Michael Avenatti.
More to come, and not in a good way for them.
Trump trolling the media, it's great!
Nay. This dismissed lawsuit with costs has been floated about by MSN in glee. When it was dismissed - silence. President Trump just shone the light on it and further deligitimizes her and her claims. MSM took the bait. Lol
Yes, you should never disparage a hard core porn star. It demeans all women. Poor Stormy.
No it won’t thanks to the media. The media loves to create a new controversy about Trump every other news cycle day. They basically over saturate the news cycle so much with negative Trump news that it runs all together and average person other than a dem loses track on what to dwell on as far as Trump is concern. Besides the media and Dems will take the bait and defend a porn star and Avenatti
People that will not vote for Trump becuse he said horseface will not vote for him anyway.
Where does Trump get off, insulting horses?
Where I come from you don’t bad mouth horses or dogs.
She’s not just any woman. She’s a pornstar who the Liberals turned into a hero, because they thought she would bring down the president of the United States. Now she’s been completely rebuked in a court of law and goes back to being an aging pornstar. The Liberals debased themselves buy hitching themselves to this lowlife’s wagon. She and they deserve ridicule. It’s called fighting back.
He’ll gain 3 votes 1 everyone he loses over this comment.
