EXCLUSIVE: Ex Playboy model Karen McDougal shares intimate details of her ten-month affair with Donald Trump, claiming he told her he loved her and SHE ended it - moving on with Bruce Willis - in explosive interview with Daily Mail
Karen McDougal, an ex-Playboy model who claims she had a ten-month affair with former president Donald Trump back in 2006, gave an exclusive interview to Daily Mail
'I was in love with him. He was in love with me. I know that because he told me all the time,' she said of her relationship with Trump
McDougal, 52, claims that she ended the relationship, which allegedly went on while Trump was married to Melania, who had just given birth to their son Barron

Clad in a dressing gown, and not much else, in the suite of a luxury hotel in West Hollywood, it's clear to see how Karen McDougal might attract the attention of a rich, powerful, older man. A man like former US president, Donald Trump, for instance.
Karen is an ex-Playboy model who claims she had a ten-month affair with him back in 2006. She's one of two women - the other being Stormy Daniels - who allegedly had a relationship with the married multi-millionaire prior to his successful 2016 election campaign.
It's these women's allegations that lie at the heart of the Manhattan District Attorney's office investigation into the now 76-year-old Trump, making him the first former president in US history to face criminal charges - 34 of them, to be precise - all of which he denies.
But while Stormy Daniels is the accuser everyone has heard about - a former adult film star whose silence was brokered and bought for $130,000 by Trump's 'fixer', his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, who was jailed for perjury - few have heard of Karen McDougal.

An affair he just wrote off as more 'deep state propaganda' for years.
Explain to me Trumpers how he has gained any momentum with Women Voters for his reelection in 24?
Most of the ones that believed his Lies prior to 16 are waking up to his manipulator BS.

Trumpers may never wake up to his manipulation, lies and backpedaling.
Was he accused wrongly of Russian collusion--obviously so as well as a bogus impeachment. He just doesn't seem able to keep his junk in his own drawer. I think that's why he and Billy Bob got along. You are right, I doubt he's gained any momentum with female voters.
Let's see if he continues his bullying, and likely he will. That will this time around alienate him from different sectors of the population that he needs vote wise in order to win the GOP nomination. Just my opinion.

So you're saying female voters should be more motivated by whether he's the kind of guy they'd like to marry than policies?
I mean, I can't stand the guy, but I'm not sure what having had an affair 15 years ago has to do with whether or not he should be elected.
We're voting for President, not "husband of the year".

I cheated on both of my wife's. Apologized profusely and sincerely to all the hurt that I had caused and moved on. I've never run for any Public Office and though I've had opportunities, I can't LIE to people, it's against my Principles as I've matured.
Less Drama......PRINCIPLES MATTER

No, he's not running for husband of the year, but I for one find his lies and cheating troubling. That speaks volumes about his true character and I can no longer just look the other way. Any way you cut it he's a liar and a cheater. No, I will not vote for him this time around, nor do I think he'll be the nominee.
-
Neither excusing nor accusing, here.
I'm absolutely shocked that a billionaire with a public presence that doesn't look like some geeky stick figure (not that that $eem$ to matter much) is surrounded by hot chicks in provocative outfits.
Shocked, I tell you.
At least he wasn't fondling the waiters...
Maybe it's the frustrated gays in DC showing their sour grapes..

I never claimed to be Sane @DCPatriot like your buddy, BUT I'm not a narcissist or a pathological LIAR either.

Yeah, well that "narcissist" and "pathological LIAR" but up Hall of Fame numbers, pandemic coup and Deep State coup aside.

So if character doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if Trump lies to the voters... I mean I think I would keep a vow to my wife (and I have) more than to some pretty bimbos. Trump's wife was a "trophy wife" for goodness sake and we still have "what are they wearing" threads...
Face it, Trump is just a whore-monger and has been his whole life (time and time and time and time again).

Isn't that what we were saying back in the Gary Hart days?

McDougal swerves when I ask if she will vote for Trump if he wins the next Republican nomination. Her answer is not exactly a ringing vote of confidence in the former US president. 'I'm hoping DeSantis gets in. I'd be willing to work for his campaign,' she says, referring to the popular, and younger, politician Ron DeSantis, current governor of Florida, who is expected to declare next week that he will run for the top job.
Yeah, I get the feeling DeSantis will thank McDougal for her vote, but not offer her a campaign position. Trump has offered her several positions I am sure.

Used to be a death sentence for any conservative running for office ... now days the slippery slope has folks even here at TBR turning a blind eye. Sad.

I think you are right @Sighlass

I remember when Reagan being married twice cost him votes in the caucus.

Yes, I feel badly for Melania as well. She needs to ditch him. Her net worth is $50 million. Why does she stay? Is she that in love with him??? Perhaps he has her convinced that none of these affairs took place. Maybe she is afraid to be alone, or she's afraid of losing as the custodial parent of Baron. My guess is the latter.
-
My heart goes out to her too. But she was a model, has she ever NOT been a gold-digger? *
*Asking for a Friend.
-
I used to be friends with the fella back when I was in my 30s who had a fling with somebody behind his wife’s back and she ended up falling in love with him
Whoa, was that a mess. He used to ask me what he should do about it and I didn’t have any answers. I was only in my 30s and married with children. I had no advice to give.

She will eventually. For the time being, she is getting Barron through school, and jotting down notes for her tell-all.

Goes to his word - If he can't keep his word to his wife, then what good is his word to anyone else?
It is certainly a legit question.

Any way you cut it he's a liar and a cheater. No, I will not vote for him this time around, nor do I think he'll be the nominee.
I get not voting for him...but the fact that he's a crappy husband just doesn't seem like a great reason to me. I've known people who were very good at their jobs who cheated on their spouses -- male and female. It's certainly a character weakness that suggests that their "true character" has flaws. But the logic I've heard in the past goes something like "if they'll cheat on their spouse, they'll cheat on a test, or they're cheat their company, or they'll violate their oath of office and sell us out to the Soviets, etc. etc..
Just seems kind of a stretch to me. Reagan almost certainly cheated on his first wife, but I don't think that would have made me indifferent to voting for either he or Jimmy Carter, who only committed lust "in his heart".

Yup
Trump’s affairs make for an interesting tabloid fodder. Nothing more.

I'm old enough to remember when we after Bill Clinton for the lack of his Character.

It has been a race to the bottom for quite a while now. You are expected to compromise principle to the point there are no principles other than the tribe you supposedly belong to. Advancing above tribe was the success of America. That has been decimated.

The principles that should matter the most in politics are political principles, and a failure to live up to those is a betrayal of voters. A failure to live up to marital promises is a betrayal of your spouse, which is then between you and him/her. I'm not saying it doesn't matter at all - just that it's importance in the context of something as momentous as "who runs the country" puts it way down the list.

Gee, a wonderful example for our already struggling youth who have thrown upon them sexual preference, transexuality, what pronoun they are, etc.
Morals and character do matter. Tabloid fodder?? Well, he was found guilty of sexual assault and ordered to pay $5M; that's more than tabloid fodder. We are losing our youth rapidly to liberal ideology and Trump's repeated affairs are NOT a good example. Nor are his lies and exaggerations.
Say what you want, his remarks degrading women DO count and no ex-president should utter them; he's supposed to be for ALL people; including women!

Affairs do not disqualify someone from office
Repeated affairs does reflect a lack of character and Trump has a lot of problems when it comes to how he relates to women. But it doesn’t disqualify him from running for POTUS
I do feel bad for his wife, though. And the rest of his family
