Stormy whatsit didn't deny it it seems.

She hasn't said anything but that she met him and it was all business and he was a gentleman.

Cohen said it had nothing to do with trump so no client attorney privilege. But we all know it had to do with trump. They're trying to protect him from the consequences of using campaigns funds to pay off a sex film actress.

Oh dear Lord... what twisted and convoluted and contradictory logic!

So she's not accusing Trump of anything but Trump's attorney paid her off in a non-non-disclosure and/or non-non-disparagement agreement without Trump's knowledge to protect him from the consequences of paying off a sex film actress for saying nothing? Really???

That makes absolutely no sense. It would be entirely legal -- and far more effective and practical -- for Trump's attorney to simply settle any claim with a legal contractual settlement. Problem solved. But that's obviously not what happened.

Don't really care what Trump did in his personal life, or if his lawyer felt the need to pay off some adult film star.

People knew what kind of person Trump was before they decided to support him.

The problem is not Trump's actions. The problem is the self righteousness and moral superiority, not to mention virtue signaling, of those that support him.

Well, not all of his supporters. I assume some are good people.

Wham, Bam, thank you m'am.

130,000 dollars for a night with a porn star?.......even I could have made a better "art of the deal" case than trump...makes you wonder who REALLY got screwed in that transaction....stormy seems to be always smiling, and Melania seems to be always frowning in the photo-ops...duh...I wonder why

I bet his wife feels differently. While she was recovering from giving birth to his child he's off schtooping a ho. He's scum from top to bottom.

If Malania was your wife would you cheat on her?

No, but I bet I could spell her name right.

Let me take this opportunity to say Merry Christmas and MAGA.

Even were it to be true, it's not like he rigged an election or some such. If he does that or starts bragging about his drone skillz and targeting citizens without trial, I'll have some complaints.

If he were to lose a fine woman like Melania then that's on him I will say.

Melania knew what she was getting when she married him... nothing to be upset about. She married him for the money, not his fidelity. She is just 47 years old. 24 years his junior. She married Trump at 34 years old... he was 58. No sexy 34 year old marries a 58 year old for anything except money. As classy as she may be, let's keep it 100... she just a trophy wife. Always has been and always will be.

When you are rich and powerful, women throw pootang at you like rice at a wedding. Very few wealthy men are going to pass up getting some on the side. Men like options and variety. Any man who says otherwise is lying. Face it, men seek fame and fortune because it brings women. Athletes, entertainers, businessmen, etc.

In fact, a lot of wealthier men have just said screw it... and are basically keeping harems of women Big Love style. P Diddy, Floyd Mayweather among others. Even Google boss, Erik Schmidt is known to be in an open marriage is frequently seen out with women other than his wife.

Oh, and one other thing... Most of these women are perfectly fine with it. Despite what feminist may claim, vast majority of women just want financial security. If it means letting your billionaire husband play around, then most women are going to accept it. A small price to pay for having millions at your disposal. I'm sure as Melanie is getting older though, she is probably worried Trump will want to trade her in for a new model. That is where any issue she may have is coming from...

I think the hubbub over Trump's infidelity is directly linked to him being the champion of the family values party. Therein it really makes you wonder just what values they're actually talking about. You seem to make it sound like the only value worth mentioning is Grade A poonhound.

I can't help but wonder if Cliffords is a Russian name.........

The fact that the lawyer admits that she was paid is highly suspect.

It's also worth noting that she didn't come for a payday until he was running for office.

as to your last line?....well, no s**t Sherlock....as if a woman who gets paid to have sex with men on film, would have any problem taking trump for a 130,000 dollar ride....unlike Trump, SHE really does know "the art of the deal", and how it's played......even Putin is shaking his head, saying to himself "this is too easy"

So be it....

The WH and presidency has just turned into a Kardashian styled, Pu$$y grabbin, trailer park reality show.

There's also a negative side....

I think it's time to storm the White House in moral outrage.

I don't necessarily disagree, but you also have to remember the Republican party has two wings. The establishment, christian conservative wing and the more libertarian minded wing. Trump was a rejection of the old line Republican wing. Trump is to the Republican party much like Bernie was to the Democrat party. The Republicans just weren't successful in squashing Trump during the primary. Remember, McConnell, Ryan, and a lot of the establishment conservatives were as anti-Trump as the Democrats.

I am just being a realist. I think marriage is sacred and would never cheat on my wife. However, that is not how things work in the real world when you are a billionaire and basically have your pick of the litter so to speak.

All the conservative family values politicians are also porking interns, etc.

Stormy paid $130,000.... How will this effect the political climate?

Weather Is Not Climate ....

Not to mention that having pope-like tastes is not a prerequisite to being a good leader.

I am just providing an intuitive opinion, but eventually, I think the world is going to find out that Melania is not Barron's birth mother. Look at Barron early toddler pictures and then look at Stormy Daniels. Hmmm? Melania's child would definitely show more European features, even with a mix of the Donald.

I just have a feeling that this is a more personal family matter that did not include adultery.

As I stated. No sources. Only my predictive opinion.

Edit add: this is a conspiracy site so just tossing the possibility that there may be a completely different cover up occurring.

Especially since he jammed a cigar up her vajayjay and left his DNA on her blue dress, all in the Oval Office. Oh, that Trump..... nevermind.

Yeah I really sweated that for a few years. Lol

Same. I recall this instance before Trump was elected when I headed over to my local Walmart wearing my pajamas looking to purchase some imported consumer crap as Christmas gifts and the cashier had the unmitigated gall to wish me a 'Happy Holiday'.

Now I relish the thought that our Commander and Chief will allow me to fight back in this War on Christmas and sock that bozo in the face.

That's an interesting choice of words. The image you paint is a little disturbing. But nothing would surprise me anymore.

Water Sports anyone?

The only difference between prostitution and pornography are a couple of cameras and some paperwork.

Meh.
