With Stormy Daniels? I mean, come on, we all believe it, right? But so what? It doesn’t matter... his supporters forgive him for all of his transgressions, his opponents are desensitized at this point. So he had ANOTHER affair...
So so why is he fighting this one so hard? Why not just admit it like he has in the past and say he’s a changed man. It seems to me that he’s bringing more attention to it by denying it.

Could it be he's fighting it because of the $130,000 paid to her can be considered blackmail, which is a felony? I don't know, I'm just guessing. |

yes, but his lawyer paid her out of the goodness of his heart, didn't he?!? Trump had nothing to do with it!! at all!!  good question, OP- I was wondering the same thing. And the other accusers (it's more than 17, isn't it??) have to do with assault-type issues or him forcing himself on them, and not consensual relationships- right? so that's not the same scenario as with Stormy Daniels, is it? |

I love the irony that people who thought Clinton should have been impeached for his affair feel differently for Trump.

I am still trying to wrap my head around why they only tried to pay off and silence one woman. Many women have accused him of various things... so what makes this one so different that they felt the need to try and make her go away in the first place 🤔 Wouldn't it make more sense (funny I know... right!?) to try and shut up someone whose pussy he allegedly grabbed over someone who had assumably consensual relations with him? I mean seriously, if the porn star creates a family values issue explain that away since his multiple affairs and previously nude-posing spouse were non-issues.

It was clear that he was never a family values candidate. Married 3 times, multiple public affairs, admitting on tape he likes to grab women’s pussies....the Evangelical Right has forgiven it all. One more CONSENSUAL affair should not have made a difference. Why even pay the $130,000? Why not just let it come out, apologize, be forgiven and move on... There’s more to this story... |

And....why the heck would she shut up for a measly $130,000? She could have gotten so much more from a steamy tell-all book.

For 130k, it wasn't an affair, it was a financial transaction for sexual favors. She just likely has proof which makes this more of a threat than all the other women he's taken advantage of.

And something else I heard someone say this weekend....
Why is he not bashing her in the media and on twitter like he has all of his other accusers? As far as I know, he hasn’t said one bad thing about her. So very unlike him....hmm.....

She's got something he doesn't want coming out. The more they fight, the more it stays in the news and makes a big deal out of it. I'm curious what she has on him.

I hope whatever it is brings him down and fast. Kinda like that whole "pharma bro" who is going to prison for the other horrible things he did, but couldn't be nailed for screwing over people who were desperate and dependent on what he was selling. I hope karma bites him in the ass the same way. |

It's not the affair, it's the payoff. The question is why? Why did he pay her off? Which I believe was in 2016? |

Clinton was impeached because he lied about and not because he had the affair.
At the time, some felt, Clinton was set-up by Ken Starr because he was pretty sure Clinton would lie about the affair.
Let’s be honest, the first instinct of anyone who is having affair is to lie about it. Old Bubba did just that.
I have no doubt that trump would do the same in the same circumstances. Which will be interesting if the Stormy Davis lawsuit proceeds.

I don't believe in impeaching presidents of either party over consensual sex, in or out of the Oval Office. More to the point, taking advantage of consensual sex to impeach a president you hate anyway.
But I sure hope Stormy Daniels has something so shameful on him that he's forced to resign on his own.
I'll take the medieval-minded Mike Pence over this incompetent narcissist any day. Better a few draconian laws that can be thrown out later than WWIII because someone's having a temper tantrum.

This crap drives me nuts. I went into work the other day for a meeting and my born-again, evangelical co-worker, the one who thinks porn destroys families and sex is only for married heterosexual couples, is still a die-hard Trump apologist. Are you f*cking kidding me?! Same guy who nearly had a heart attack when I mentioned mommy&me yoga (welcoming the demons into my baby!!) has no problem staunchly supporting a sexually abusive, lying, cheating, adult star screwing slimeball. It is hypocrisy at its finest and it makes me sick. |

She must have something on him, because there is no way he would keep his big, fat fingers from tweeting about her. He would be blasting her on twitter.
I find it amusing that some evangelicals are perfectly fine with him having an affair. They are such hypocrites.

The news headlines are now saying Stormy's attorney has offered to return the $130,000 to Trump and then Stormy will be free to speak out to whomever she wishes.

This is generally my thoughts too. I don't get ruffled feathers over consensual sex between adults, even if I find their behavior abhorrent (i.e. cheating). But I also don't go around positing myself as the party of family values and morals. It's the hypocrisy that kills me. How many mulligans will Trump need from the evangelicals when all of this is said and done? |
