“Did he pay hush money and was she a porn star???”
Evidently. But it was hush money which the Trump organization obviously thought it was worth paying off the woman rather than let her try to blow up his election. I see nothing wrong with that. That kind of legal blackmail happens daily in the United States.
I remember a businessman being sued in Houston for $10,000. The lawyers got together and told the guy he stood no chance in court. Yes, he agreed, but “legal fees will cost you more than that.” They paid the man off.
DeSantis brought up the language twice in one breath. If he had stopped after his initial take on the coming event, he would have been statesman like. But he picked up the slanderous language and happily wallowed in the slop, despite DeSantis-bots claiming he was so high and mighty and noble and pure and would not deign to stoop to such tactics.
So the answer is yes.
