Trump Lawyer Says He Paid Porn Actress Out Of His Own Pocket

[edpc]

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's personal attorney said Tuesday he paid $130,000 out of his own pocket to a porn actress who allegedly had a sexual relationship with Trump in 2006.

Michael Cohen said in a statement to The New York Times that he was not reimbursed by the Trump Organization or the Trump campaign for the payment to Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.

Cohen wrote, "The payment to Ms. Clifford was lawful, and was not a campaign contribution or a campaign expenditure by anyone."

It was awfully nice of Cohen to pay that money just because.  After all, we know it wasn't for an encounter, right?

    WoW, $130,000 the old, pre Presidential Trump would have refused to pay and just filed Bankruptcy, again.

Nothing to see here:  doesn't everyone's personal attorney make 6 figure payments to porn stars?  Thank goodness for "mulligans".

Bitter that this story isn't going to take down your mortal enemy. Sucks to be you, but awesome for me to see people like you lose your shit over it.

She should have gone to The Enquirier.  Stormy could have gotten $150K from Trump's CEO buddy, like Karen McDougal did.

    The Trump Campaign never would have cleared Pecker to print that story unless it was a threesome with Cruz.

    @Frank Cannon Trump is not the Mortal Enemy here. It's Trump supporters that do more damage to his cause than he himself does and that's saying a lot.

"Mortal enemy"?  Afraid you're losing it again Frank. I'm not losing anything other than respect for the President over this. Have a good night!

Like hell. You're like a MSNBC commentator around here.

Actually, his lawyers are the ones doing harm.  Cohen effed this up by bungling the LLC setup.  Dowd drafted a tweet that made Trump look guilty of obstruction of justice.  Sekulow went on Wallace's show and made a fool of himself.

If this is the crew that will assist him with the Mueller inquiry, he may find himself in serious trouble from their ineptitude

LOL!  Does anyone actually believe that a lawyer paid for anything out of his own pocket?

That's your opinion. As far as I can see your guys in the Special Council are the ones looking like jackasses.

I like how they're 'my guys' when I've said repeatedly in many threads the campaign collusion is BS.  As far as giving opinions go, WTF else are we here for?

To pay homage to me, silly.

Of course not.  It just gets reimbursed in padded billable hours when they sat down and discussed Stormy's rack and how airtight his prenup with Melania is.

Dammit.  I misunderstood.  I thought we had to pay you fromage.  You're going to receive some cheese in the mail. I hope you like Gruyère.

Aww.... you're the sweetest ever, Frank.  I don't care what Emjay says about you.

bleep.  I hate swiss.

She's just pissed at me because I tried to sell her on the benefits of selling Amway as a way to supplement her income.
