So here’s the deal.
People are saying that Trump’s lawyer paid off a porn star to keep her mouth shut about her “sexual encounter” with Donald Trump.
It’s literally top-headline news right now.
According to Daily Mail:
Donald Trump’s lawyer reportedly paid off an ex-porn star a month prior to the election who allegedly had a sexual encounter with the billionaire a decade before he was president, a report on Friday revealed.
THe Wall Street Journal says that Trump’s personal attorney, Michael Cohen, arranged for Stephanie Clifford, whose stage name was Stormy Daniels, to be paid $130,000 in October of 2016 so that she would keep quiet.
According to the Journal, Trump, 71, and Clifford, 38, met at a celebrity golf tournament in July of 2006. The Lake Tahoe event is where the sexual encounter is said to have taken place.
Heeeere’s the kicker. LITERALLY EVERYONE INVOLVED IS SAYING IT NEVER HAPPENED.
Cohen, the White House and Clifford have all denied any kind of “pay out” and that any sort of affair ever took place.
SO… how is this news? HOW IS THIS MULTIPLE NEWS’ OUTLETS TOP STORY RIGHT NOW?!
I guess we can just make up anything about Trump at this point and BAM. IMPORTANT BREAKING NEWS.
The story continues…
Clifford said in a Jan. 10 statement, which she signed with her stage name, that neither the affair nor the payoff took place.
‘If I did indeed have a relationship with Donald Trump, trust me, you wouldn’t be reading about it in the news,’ Clifford said in the statement that Cohen provided to news outlets, ‘you would be reading about it in my book.’
Ok… that’s a good one.
Here’s the letter:

Wanna know why it doesn’t actually matter if this is true or not?
Because the libs are having a FIELD DAY with it… and they don’t care.
Dear #MAGA Conservative Christians:
Yesterday, Donald Trump taught your kids the word shithole.
Today, he introduced them to naughty delights of googling something called Stormy Daniels!
How’s that #FamilyValues votin’ workin’ out for ya?

I think the biggest shock about this Stormy Daniels story is that Trump actually followed through in paying someone

Oh REALLY?!?!?!?
So nothing Bill Clinton did even COMPARES to maybe-probably-not having an affair with a porn star, right?
SO IDIOTIC.
So seriously… why is this even news?
You know they’re mad at Trump’s immigration deal when the debunked Stormy Daniels story pops up again for the 3rd time in 2 years

Also, shouldn’t we believe women about their own experiences?
What happened to “Women Should Be Believed”? I guess that doesn’t apply when Stormy Daniels provides a signed affidavit pic.twitter.com/l121t7GAxz
