I kind of enjoy the fact that cable news shows and respected newspapers are just going all-in with the Stormy Daniels story. This is how far we’ve fallen as a society, absolutely, but it’s also a lesson to all of those Trump voters: if you vote for trash, the country becomes trashy. We are now surrounded by headlines about porn stars and Playmates, unprotected sex, extramarital affairs and whether Stormy Daniels “kept a dress” with some “evidence.” Some stories:
The lack of Trump tweets. Trump will tweet bullying bullsh-t about nearly everyone, including Bob Mueller. But he won’t tweet anything negative about Vladimir Putin. And he’s never tweeted anything directly about Stormy. He did tweet this yesterday, and everyone was like “bitch doesn’t know the word ‘voluminous’, this sh-t is fake news.”
So much Fake News. Never been more voluminous or more inaccurate. But through it all, our country is doing great!

What Trump says in private. The Washington Post reported that while Trump hasn’t said anything about Stormy publicly, “the president has lobbed sharp attacks at Daniels and her media tour, calling her allegations a ‘hoax’ and asking confidants if the episode is hurting his poll numbers. The president even has griped to several people that Daniels is not the type of woman he finds attractive.” He also told people that Stormy is “not credible.” The idea that Trump claims that Stormy isn’t the kind of woman he finds attractive reminds me so much of his repeated claims that the women he sexually assaulted were not attractive enough to be assaulted.
Did Stormy Daniels keep the dress? Stormy’s friend Alana Evans told CNN: “All I know is that Stormy still has the dress that she wore from that night… Maybe a keepsake, maybe it’s because it’s actual proof. I can only speculate the things that may be on that dress, especially if it’s never been washed.”
The White House did comment though. While Trump views Stormy Daniels with the same kind of fear that he reserves for Putin, the White House deputy press secretary did say yesterday that “The president strongly, clearly and has consistently denied these underlying claims,” regarding the affair, and as for Stormy’s claim that she was threatened, “there is nothing to corroborate her claim… The only person who has been inconsistent is the one making the claims.”

Lol sure Jan. He has the most fragile ego and that’s the guy in charge of nukes *headdesk*
I can’t say enough how much I loathe a good chunk of this country for this nonsense. Among other things but yea pure loathing.
^^^THIS^^^
Anyone else remember Clinton and cigars? Seriously?
I remember Clinton and cigars and the blue dress with the “evidence”.
Trumps tweets will age well…
Don’t forget the “windowless corridor”…… Clinton took a pit stop there many a time.
Yeah and I try not to loathe, but with some people it’s called for. I also loathe when abusers and those who sexually assault others try to equate it with their “type” or the victim’s looks. Like those “standards” are involved in their loathsome actions. Shut up with that nonsense, please.
I’m sure that I’m just imagining a resemblance to Ivanka in this staffing choice.

Even if he knows the word “voluminous” is its application to news correct? I always heard of it in the context of soft goods, as in “The skirt stained with the president’s semen was voluminous.”
yeah, he’s a real poet, that one. bigly inventive with his use of only the best words.
I’m a paralegal, and we refer to a large amount of a specific kind of document (medical records, in my line of work) as “voluminous.” He absolutely does not know what that word means or how to spell it, and I would bet money that the person who did compose that tweet has a legal background, specifically civil law. It’s a very specific term when used to describe documents, and while it is technically correct in this context, it’s a glaring tipoff that Annoying Orange didn’t actually write that tweet.
He reminds me of another pseudo-populist anti-intellectual Repub, his friend Sarah Palin, and how she would “learn” some $50 college word once in a while to “prove” that she isn’t stupid. She would use that word over and over for a week, like an arctic parrot. I seem to remember “cognizant” being one.
I like the term “artic parrot.” I may borrow that.
So he just had his lawyer pay her $130,000 out of the goodness of his heart? We all know that’s a lie, because he has no heart.
Because she’s so unattractive, poor thing. Our Don is nothing if not a humanitarian.
I always pay $130k to strangers I never met via my friends/ lawyer with a NDA and threaten to take legal action about breaching the NDA and discussing our meetings that never happened. I mean who doesn’t?
Right? Nothing to see here.
*Laughs wearily*
In keeping with his habit, Cheeto didn’t actually advance funds out of his own pocket. Cohen is still out the $130,000.
Not true, some money has been found to have been moved from the campaign funds to trump org totalling 129,000.72. Yes, they thought they brilliantly hid that movement by shorting it .28.
Who else would respond like that? Sometimes I think I’m still in a bizarre dream where he’s the president.
Oh me too Naddie. I had a fairly serious operation in October of 2016, and I have told family that this is so unreal that I believe a good case can be made that I never left that hospital. I went into a coma during surgery, and there I lay. And I am not joking. I am not joking at all. Is that really more absurd than this??? No, and in fact, I believe it is far less absurd. People do go into comas.
We’re in a collective coma.
Oh no. So basically you survived a near-death experience just to enter into this living nightmare?
I’m sorry you went through that and I’m sorry you got Trump America as a “welcome back” present. Just happy you’re ok.
Darla, I am glad you survived. I hope everything is ok and there aren’t any long term effects. I feel like every single day with him as president is so abnormal that I never feel settled.
Yikes! Glad you’re okay!
Oh thanks everyone! I don’t know if it was near death, other than in my head. ha. But it was 7 hours and involved a tumor (non malignant, but involved). Thankfully, I am aokay today!
And Sullivan, yeah, friends of mine have said that they somehow got caught in my coma too and can I please wake up now.
“there is nothing to corroborate her claim” is not exactly the same as “No, we never threatened her” now is it.
Also his “type” seems to be anyone who would let him mount them, yuck.
Then why did he surgically alter one of his daughters to look like her?
Good question for Raj at todays’s briefing….
His type=reminds him of daughter, has big fake boobs, is willing to have unprotected sex with a nasty old narcissist..sounds like a match to me
So gross but so true.
Trump is gross and he will take whatever he can get as so many stories and his own admission supports.
And he totally has a type! Ivanka. Resemblance to his eldest daughter is his type.
Still, this reminds me of Usher’s latest denial his accuser wasn’t his type.
His type seems to be Jessica Rabbit – a cartoon sexpot. There’s no subtlety to Trump. Stormy did fit that basic stereotype although she’s her own version of it, of course.
What about the other woman, Karen? Is 45 denying her too? He’s ridiculous and nauseating. Lord save us from this fool madman.
Key difference in their interviews: Karen repeatedly spoke kindly of him (“love”). Stormy consented, but wasn’t into him. I think that’s why he’s supposedly slapping back via “sources”.
I feel as if we are in a high school cafeteria, where someone is sending messages via friends. “Oh, so you didn’t like him? Well, he said you’re not his type, even though he pursued you.”
That’s Trump. The jr high school presidency. Less mature than his own tweenage son.
I was thinking Stormy Daniels looked a bit like Marla Maples when she was younger. Wasn’t Marla his type to get pregnant and marry?
Yeah, quite true but then Trump went through his Diana, Princess of Wales sex obsession during the marriage with Maples, so then you saw Maples cut her hair short like Diana. The Princess had an amazing ability to read people
long before the truth hit: Trump and Savile are good examples.
Ivana and Marla are blondes. Besides, men sleep with women that aren’t their type. He’s just trying to think of a believable denial. I believe she slept with him. She’s also fucking w him a bit. I don’t think she kept anything, her friend is probably just saying that to make him twist a bit. I wonder what his conversations with Melanie are like regarding this? Lol
Her lawyer keeps saying there’s evidence but I don’t get why he hasn’t released it yet, seems strange. I could care less about evidence of them sleeping together, just hoping there’s proof she was paid off with campaign money
he says that he’s going to release it like a trickle…bit by bit…probably to keep this in people’s minds right up through the November elections.
Perhaps he is saving the proof for the trial?
I thought the same, but then figured he was trickling out the details to keep this on the front pages, which it’s doing. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was paid off with campaign funds. Trump never likes to spend his own money, if he has any left!
The trickling out approach risks people tuning it out after a while and not watching anymore interviews with Stormy because they figure it’s a nothingburger and so little of note comes out in an hour of chatting. In Trump’s favor, he’s already so sleazy in public perception that little shocks people anymore. It’s like the protective cocoon of slime that the parrotfish sleeps in.
Hahaha, 😁😁😁😁 I just would like to hear from ms. Melania Trumptard and what she gotta say about Stormy Daniels. She went on a tangent about how Billy Bush made/forced the orangutan to say “grab’em by the p*$$y” and she called all the women that accused Trumptard of rape liars. Ha where is Melania now when Trumptard needs her? 😁😁😁
Notice she didn’t report on whether Cheeto was a boxers or briefs guy when she told the spanking story–she actually hesitated a split-second. Was he wearing monogrammed undies? Pac-man boxers? Gold lamè speedo? I was intrigued — it is a means of identifying him. Maybe she snatched his undies.
I go for the monogrammed undies – he likes his name on everything.
*Looks at photo of Stormy*
White, chesty, long blonde hair, self tanner, kind of basic…
*Compares with “dateable” Ivanka*
Oh Don, you always fib.
We believe you Emperor Zero!
That’s why you took Michael Cohen to dinner the night before the interview and picked up the $130,000 tab.
She’s not his type at all, because she’s totally blowing up his spot and his lawyer’s too.
Why do some men say this? We all know that despite her not being his “type” it didn’t stop him from sleeping with her.
“The president strongly, clearly and has consistently denied these underlying claims,”
Is that a quote? Because the word are not in the right order. Maybe it’s correct in the English dictionnary: the Bigly edition.
“. . . underlying claims” – per the definition of underlying (synonyms: latent, repressed, suppressed, unrevealed, undisclosed, unexpressed, concealed, hidden, masked), her claims are not underlying. Did anyone look up the definition of underlying before they used it?
Probably not.
I kinda love how daniels has no shame about being a sex worker. People call her a sl*t and wh0re and she is all, yeppppp. I am. So?
i admire her twitter-game. she will not be shamed. she’s smart, too.
Yes. Stormy’s Twitter game is some of the best I’ve ever read. I’d love to see her bait Cheetolini into a Twitter war . . .
As I stated before, Stormy was very truthful during the 60 min interview, it was a short interview but there will be more information soon.
She was extremely composed and credible. Not that I ever had any doubt about her claims, but she really did come across well on 60 Minutes IMO.
I’ve always felt Stormy was credible. She doesn’t go overboard to make for a better story. The NDA put her in a difficult position and I hope she gets definitely out from under it. It also sounds as though they forged her signature on a more recent statement. I don’t know if the 60 Minutes interview discussed that.
I think she is really ticked about being called a liar, and that’s a major driving force for this. Of course she can get more money for telling her story, so Trump’s cheapness kicks him in the backside once again. With a Forbes magazine.
Since when is a big breasted blonde willing to sleep with him, not his type?
If she has a pulse and a p$ssy to grab, she’s his type.
Huh, not believing him, cuz years of this guy in the media clearly demonstrate that his “type” is “Has two working legs, presents as female.”
But the emails…
What the ever loving WHAT is up with women keeping semen stained clothing? I know Monica Lewinsky did it, but other than love-sick (and kind of creepy) 22yr old interns, is this really a thing people do?
When you’re sleeping with a powerful man and living in a patriarchal society, I can kind of understand it. If more people believed women, then maybe we wouldn’t have to worry about squirreling away DNA evidence to support our claims.
Like h*ll she isn’t. Liar liar pants on fire.
Ok, I think I finally get why he won’t address her on Twitter. She can further sue for defamation and he will have to be deposed. Maybe???
I hope Cohen is disbarred once the dust has settled on this. Stormy is holding all the aces now and if one thin dime came out of campaign funds to fund the LLC Cohen created just to pay her off he’s toast. Isn’t it already a conflict of interest to have your lawyer pay off someone with their own money?
Stormy also hesitated when saying she would still know the man who threatened her. I think she and her attorney know full well who it is. I think she stumbled over that part because it was something her attorney had told her to be careful of.
There are rumors of the dress beyond Stormy’s friend speaking of it. On Hardball’s “Tell me something I don’t know” segment, one of the journalists spoke of an anonymous source citing the dress.
She’s not his type — because she’s not related? *vomit*
Why should Stormy be ashamed or hide herself? She’s a sex worker. And just because some folks in society like to pretend sex and women are evil, does not mean she is. At least she’s honest about herself. Trump has a thing for sex workers apparently. At any rate in this case Trump is the heavy. He cheated on his wife. He’s lying about it. He tried to pay off Stormy. And he’s done a host of horrible, despicable things. I happen to believe her, and I happen to hope that more women come forward and continue to show the sheer hypocrisy of how far we’ve fallen as a nation with our leadership.
Snort. His type is “willing.” So I’d say she qualified. Actually, I take that back, I don’t think he even cares much about willing. I think his type is just ‘there and I’m horny’ – so … she still qualifies.
I am a Democrat thru and thru. However, I could give to shits about an affair Donald Trump’s had over 10 years ago! Does it really surprise anyone? Most rich powerful white men have affairs. To be honest, I didn’t really care when Clinton had the affiar in the White House with Monica! As long as he is doing his job. Do I find it morally disgusting to cheat on your wife? Yes I personally do but these things are always gonna happen and focusing on them when there are so many other important things to do for our country and the world is just ridiculous.
