Trump camp denies claim he helped pay Clinton accuser mortgage

Donald Trump’s campaign is denying Democrats’ claims – and those of a former adviser – that he helped pay the mortgage of a woman who years ago accused Bill Clinton of sexual assault and was just featured in a scathing Trump campaign video.

"There's no truth to that,” spokeswoman Hope Hicks told Fox News on Tuesday, responding to the mortgage claims.

The pushback comes after a Democrat-tied group posted the video and transcript of a February interview where Trump ally Roger Stone described efforts to financially help Kathleen Willey, who claims former President Clinton groped her in 1993. 

Stone told host Alex Jones in that interview about efforts to raise money online so Willey could save her home, which has been in foreclosure, and “hit the road and start speaking out on Hillary.”

I knew the msm was going to get busy vetting Trump once he was the Presumptive.

Somehow, Trump can't scrape the Roger Stone off his shoe.

And Alex Jones making it into Fox?

I actually would have no problem with Trump paying off Willey's mortgage. I see nothing at all bad about it.

Why it is being denied is what I do not understand.

Because her coming forward looks like a quid pro quo.  And, it is.

Hasn't Hannity been bringing her forward for years?

I'm no fan of Trump, but I'm not seeing the problem here either.  Even if it is a quid pro quo, if she's telling the truth about Bubba's attacking her, the mortgage issue is kind of a red herring.

So, why deny it?

I think the backlash, if true, would be the Clinton Camp saying she is only out accusing Bill Clinton now because Trump paid her mortgage.
It could damage the credibility of the claim.

And Trump will get the same response Hannity has........except among the Trumpkins.

She isn't suddenly helping Hannity in a run for the White House.
