Trump also assured Daniels that he and Melania didn’t “even sleep in the same room," she testified
After meeting the future president of the United States at a golf tournament in 2006, adult film star Stormy Daniels testified Tuesday that Donald Trump’s personal bodyguard asked if she would like to have dinner with the once-and-future Republican nominee.
“No, with an expletive in front,” Daniels said she told the aide in response, per NBC News. But she reconsidered after meeting with her publicist, she said, recalling their words: “If nothing else, you’ll get a great story” and “what’s the worst that could happen?”
But, according to Daniels, dinner never happened. When she got to Trump’s hotel room, she found him in pajamas – he later changed – and eager to discuss her work in the adult film industry, where she had risen from performer to director, and whether she had ever contracted and STD (“I’ve never tested positive for anything,” Daniels said).
Man, this guy’s so disgusting I’m at the point where I pretty much assume anyone supporting him is just as disgusting as him now.
This kind of fritzl-esque stuff should have turned away anyone remotely reasonable by this point.
I’ve reposted this story a million times.
Right after the 2016 election, the NY Times had a panel with the creators of all the top political TV series. West Wing; House of Cards: Scandal, any you could name.
All the writers and producers said the same thing; if they’d had a fictional character say that they ‘liked soldiers who didn’t get captured’ the TV networks and advertisers would demand that the character be shown getting hate from all Americans.
The media reported all the horrible things Trump said in 2016 and people still voted for the pig.
It was so outlandish that many of these folks opted to believe the media was slandering him over him just being that scummy of a person.
The character-assassination on “The Media” (granted some of that was self-inflicted) was really successful, allowing anyone to follow whatever narrative they desired without shame.
Another story that I’ve been forced to repeat.
Conservative woman goes on ‘The View’ TV show to defend Donnie after the pussy grabber tape comes out.
One of the women on the panel keeps saying ‘pussy’ over and over. Finally the Conservative woman asks the other lady to stop using that vulgar language.
I had watched Veep before that election and also thought the same thing. Even a very satirical comedy could never get away with even 1 Trumpism.
Just a reminder hes being charged with falsifying business records
Yes, and this testimony establishes that there was a reason to make the payment, and a reason to falsify them, it’s the story he was trying to bury, now the jury knows it and can make a more informed decision.
That was never disputed
? Trump still denies there was a sexual relationship.
Which says he knew how gross it made him look but decided to both have an extramarital affair and cover it up.
Look, im on your side and i want this guy to go jail. You already seen them try to mistrial over this, because although its gross, neither of those things are illegal and theyre not what hes being charged with. Hes being charged with falsifying business records. Its a simple case, they have the check stubs he signed, they have the records not showing payments, his previous lawyer is already in jail because we already know all of this happened. All this testimony is doing is giving them room to argue about personal biases.
they have to show he’s not doing it to protect his wife or whatever - in a personal capacity. Imo this testimony makes him sound like he knew how gross it would be to most people. But yeah they might open the door for an appeal and also the defense he did it to protect his daughter who he does have business dealings with (though making that argument would probably even ick some trump supporters).
I don’t like to judge other people’s actions but after all of the warning signs:
“Have you had an STD?” Spanking with the magazine after she insults him “You look like my daughter”
Why did she sleep with him? I hope she got paid. If it was just on the advice of her publicist I hope she fucking fired them.
I thought the trial is about her getting paid not to talk about sleeping with him, not if she got paid to sleep with him.
Technically it’s about how she was paid, not about the keeping quiet.
It’s legal to pay someone to do something and pay them to not talk about it. NDAs are already a thing. You’re just not allowed to pay for it with campaign funds, it’s expected to come out of your own pocket
Creepy fucker was president, WTF is wrong with this country?
There are tons of creepy fuckers that love Trump because he’s a creepy fucker.
They just happen to live in key electoral college states.
It’s because he’s their creepy fucker.
If Jesus came down from heaven and ran as a Democrat, these people would all still vote Trump.
Do not underestimate the power of tribal instincts in social primates.
This is great point. If Trump was a Democrat they’d be fuming and calling him a godless, revolting, piece of shit.
I mean it’s not even in the top 100 reasons why he should not have people vote for him
Exactly. If he’s kept out of the white house for a 2nd term because the biggest crime he’s committed is fucking a pornstar, our justice system is a failure.
It’s not a crime to fuck them or to pay them to be silent about it.
He’s on trial for fraud with where he got the money from which is funny.
If the ‘billionaire’ paid for it out of pocket I don’t think anything that happened would be illegal.
If he’s kept out of office for a second term, I’ll consider that a win and keep on trying for the next one. Almost everything after achieving that one goal can be done after it is achieved, but if he does get a second term then virtually everything imaginable will be getting worse for the foreseeable future.
Does anyone remember that Bill Clinton got impeached for a fucking blow job in the oval office and lying about it on national television?
Yet we elect a president with multiple scandals, including paying a porn star hush, money for an affair while he was married. The hypocrisy in this country is ridiculous.
To this day I still think that doesn’t count as “sexual relations”. If one of my friends told me they had sex with someone and that’s all they did, I’d call them a liar.
Does anyone remember that Bill Clinton got impeached for a fucking blow job in the oval office and lying about it on national television?
He didn’t lie about it. He was very, very careful to make them define all their terms and then answered truthfully based on their exact definitions.
He “did not have sexual relations with that woman” because he made them define what counted as sexual relations, and by their own definition a blowjob did not.
That’s a lie. Let’s not bullshit ourselves. Clinton got away with it because people have affairs. Especially people in power. He wasn’t smart about it. He just said what was believable.
I don’t think he is even in the same hemisphere as Trump in terms of lying. But this was definitely a lie. I do think that the Republicans at the time were out to get him and it didn’t matter. But that’s completely different than Trump. That fucker lies worse than a rug.
I also remember the absurdity of that case giving him a sympathetic reputation. Like, even people that hated Clinton saw it was crazy to impeach him over something so… intimate. I am worried that puting so much focus on sexually shaming TFG and ignoring the actual crime commited is gonna work out badly. Dude used campaign contributions to settle a personal matter, but har har mushroom-dick.
“At one point, Daniels said Trump compared her to Ivanka. “You remind me of my daughter,” Trump said, according to Daniels, an apparent reference to them both being blonde, intelligent and underestimated”
Let’s all thank a God who may or may not exist that The Orange One didn’t utter these words whilst he and Stormy were re-creating Gallo and Seveigny’s more raunchy scenes in The Brown Bunny
Remember that there are photos of him with Jeffery Epstein on numerous occasions.

Yeah… I’ve seen several of those already. Trump is no doubt hardly the only celebrity to have hobnobbed with Jeff on a regular basis
How many of them have said shit like this about Jeff?
“He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."
