How Trump Escalated the Stormy Daniels Story: A Thirteen-Step Guide

1. Go to a celebrity golf tournament, and decide how to spend your free time.

2. At the first sign that a woman has a story to tell, treat her as an enemy.

3. Spend five years ignoring reality.

4. When you run for President, be sure to claim that women who may have such stories about you are liars.

5. Threats involving big numbers are more your style than legally grounded ones.

6. Some lawyers would draft such an agreement in a way that does not require your signature. Not your lawyer!

7. Don’t bother to sign it.

8. But do you know exactly what your lawyer is doing?

9. When your lawyer starts telling implausible stories about the deal, let him keep talking.

10. Let your lawyer take actions that guarantee that your involvement in the hush agreement will come to light.

11. Don’t think about what her next move might be.

12. Make it twenty million dollars, then!

13. Maybe just call her a liar?

Stormy Daniels' lawsuit against Trump and his lawyer gets bigger and better

Stormy Daniels has amended her lawsuit against Donald Trump to include two key new points:

a defamation claim against Trump’s longtime personal lawyer Michael Cohen, and

an argument that the non-disclosure agreement Daniels signed isn’t valid because the $130,00 hush money payment from Cohen to Daniels was in violation of federal election law.

Cohen defamed Daniels, the lawsuit now says, by implying on February 13 that she was lying about her 2006 affair with Trump, even as he paid her six figures to not talk about it.

Using the likely illegality of the payment to keep the affair quiet as a way to undo the agreement to keep the affair quiet—very nice.

Daniels and her attorney, Michael Avenatti, continue to be some of Trump’s most formidable foes.

Trash is ing stupid, ignorant, his lawyers are about the same, and getting slapped by Daniels and Avenatti.

Michael Cohen’s Lawyer Just Made It Way, Way Worse for His Client on Live TV

“The president was not aware of the agreement,” Schwartz said. “At least, Michael Cohen never told him about the agreement.”

Schwartz also said that Trump was not aware of the payment made under the agreement.

That definitely sounds like he’s telling the world that his own client violated legal ethics rules.

Cohen, who is licensed to practice law in the state of New York, must adhere to the bar’s rules of professional conduct. Rule 1.4 states that lawyers shall promptly inform their clients of “any decision or cir stance with respect to which the client’s informed consent, as defined in Rule 1.0(j), is required by these Rules,” as well as “material developments in the matter including settlement or plea offers.”

Rule 1.0(j), which is referenced there, defines “informed consent” as:

the agreement by a person to a proposed course of conduct after the lawyer has communicated information adequate for the person to make an informed decision, and after the lawyer has adequately explained to the person the material risks of the proposed course of conduct and reasonably available alternative.

Naturally, Schwartz’s admission regarding his client’s legal practice led to some confusion and amusement on Twitter.

Will the NY bar disbar this clown Cohen?

And Trash stiffed Cohen, yawn, who said he hasn't been repaid.

MSNBC’s Joe and Mika hint that Melania may be close to leaving the White House over Stormy Daniels

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski hinted they’re hearing from inside sources that President Donald Trump is worried the first lady might be planning to leave the White House.

Melania Trump may have signed a non-disclosure agreement with her husband, like adult film star Stormy Daniels — the “Morning Joe” co-hosts later said the president may be uncharacteristically silent on the matter out of fear for his wife.

“Melania Trump wields so much power at this point in time,” Brezinski said.

“She could make a decision that would stop Trump in his tracks on many levels, especially if she decides to leave the White House.”

The co-hosts famously gossip during commercial breaks about topics they’re unable to address during the broadcast, and

Scarborough hinted they may be hearing some particularly juicy gossip from their White House sources.

“Everybody that we’ve spoken with over the past three or four days,

trying to figure out what’s going on in the White House all go back —

it all goes back to Melania Trump,”

That would certainly explain a lot.

At some point the pressure of the pending trial may be more than Melania can bear.

I think it would be almost certain that Melania has sought out some top legal advice on this. At some point Trump is going to cross a line or say something stupid that will provide the easy legal out for Melania.

[Don] Junior and Aubrey were so serious about their affair he was saying he was going to leave his wife, and they were trying for a baby, and that is definitely the real reason Junior refused to use a condom with his extramarital paramour, because they were TRYING, so don’t you go saying this is another example of Junior trying to win his dad’s approval by being JUST LIKE HIS DAD, who doesn’t wear rubbers when he’s mushing his up inside the non-Melania population of the US and A. You bet.

Stormy's attorney says they have 'mountain-load of evidence', boldly moves to depose Trump in court

According to Avenatti, there is a more information that did not make it into Daniels's “60 Minutes” interview.

“There is a lot of embarrassing information that has yet to come out,” Avenatti said.

“There is a mountain-load of evidence, and so perhaps that is why he is continuing to deny it," he added, referring to the president.

Avenatti says he thinks Trump is rightly scared.

"We didn’t think that he would stay silent this long and

I think it's pretty clear –

he is scared of my client and perhaps of me,” Avenatti said of Trump on MSNBC.

“And he should be."

Meanwhile, Avenatti and Daniels aren’t only booking media interviews,

they took the unusual step of asking a judge to allow them to depose Donald Trump and his attorney, Michael Cohen, in court.

Statistical Model Strongly Suggests the Stormy Daniels Payoff Came from the Trump Campaign

in late October 2016, the Trump campaign made a series of five large payments to Trump-affiliated en ies, totaling $129,999.72.

Campaign records do not provide enough information to conclusively determine, through traditional methods, if these payments are related to the Daniels payoff.

the probability of a set of payments coincidentally coming so close to $130,000 is approximately .1%, or one out of one thousand.

In other words, about 99.9% of the time, random chance would not produce a set of payments this close to $130,000.

Therefore, the probability that the Trump campaign payments were related to the Daniels payoff is very high.*

So Trash's 4th rate lawyer is lying about taking out a home equity loan for $130K to shut up SD, lying about not telling Trash, while it was the Trash campaign cash the paid SD's silence.

I'm sure Mueller's on it ...

I guess Trash and his accomplices behave like this (lying, cheating, stiffing, bullying) in private business, but it probably ain't gonna work in govt.

Donald Trump is a sexual predator

You asked me to prove it.

How can I do so, if you won't say beforehand what metrics you want me to meet?

But if you are hesitant, I can roll with the agreed on definition.

Are lies about offering benefits such as jobs to entice someone into sex abusive? Donald Trump has done that.

I'm using your definition, dumbass. So since you can't answer, yes, deliberately offering fake employment offers to get women into bed meets part of the definition of sexual predator.

Check.

What other part do you want proven next?

Third woman sues to nullify Trump hush agreement after his campaign demands $1.5 million for speaking out

Jessica Denson alleges she was harrassed by a superior while working phone banks for the Trump campaign’s Hispanic outreach effort.

Denson, who was an employee of the campaign, also works as an actress in Los Angeles.

According to the report, Denson “had earlier filed a discrimination case against Donald Trump for President Inc. in New York state court,

but the campaign sought to enforce the confidentiality deal, filing an arbitration claim asserting $1.5 million in damages.”

In court filings, Denson argued that the non-disclosure agreement was too broadly worded.

"A sexual predator is a person seen as obtaining or trying to obtain sexual contact with another person in a metaphorically "predatory" or abusive manner. Analogous to how a predator hunts down its prey, so the sexual predator is thought to "hunt" for his or her sex partners. People who commit sex crimes, such as rape or child sexual abuse, are commonly referred to as sexual predators"


Go.

I am providing you proof in easy to digest little snippets, so you can't wiggle or prevaricate, because you are a dishonest sophist. If this upsets you, quit being a dishonest sophist.

So we have the "abusive" part proven. Moving on to threatening victims.

Multiple victims of assault report threats from the implied physical threats on Daniels, to the impossible for you do deny lawsuits, and threats of lawsuits.

Also abusive, predatory behavior.

Between stalking victims, lying to them to get what you want, forcing yourself when unwanted, and threats to keep quiet about any assaults, seems to meet your definition.

What more proof do you need?
