Megyn Kelly weighed in on her NBC show, and reminded Giuliani that his own clients wife, Melania Trump who Giuliani hailed as a model woman in his comments, unlike Daniels is herself a model who has posed nude.
The notion is that he respects women of substance, a woman that wont sell her body for sexual exploitation, Kelly noted. Melania Trump is classy and gorgeous and I really admire her. But she has posed nude for GQ Magazine, back in 2000.
Kelly continued: So to suggest that Trump would never respect and the Giuliani would never respect someone who had sold their body for sexual exploitation Im not comparing the two, posing nude is not the same as being a porn star but come on.
CNNs Dana Bash called Giuliani, who is in Israel, on Thursday morning to ask him about his remarks, and he was apparently unaware that they had caused controversy stateside.
In the call he apparently doubled down, telling Bash that Daniels involvement in a slimy business says something about how far [shell] go to make money.

(52,253 posts)yeah, she's slimy for selling her body for sexual exploitation, but donnie's honorable and upright for exploiting her body and then paying her $130,000.

(29,718 posts)double slimy and yet there is never a word about the market and the few ways that women can make lots of money.
Secretaries make about minimum wage. Being a waitress causes great body distress and breaks it down early in life for a few pennies thrown on a table. So, she makes money filling a niche market for double slimy drooling slobbering customers. She is also protected from those depraved customers from trying to grab her by being on film. She's smart and has made a living for herself and child and hasn't broken any laws.

(52,253 posts)Maybe it comes in part from being Jewish. Of course there are some prudes in any group, including Jews, but we don't have that Puritan heritage American Christians have.
Anyway, yeah. I'd like to see better treatment of the workers generally, whether in strip clubs or on film, etc., but i think the stigma thing is just silly.

(5,124 posts)People have disgust for the porn actresses-but not for the customers. Melania didn't do porn, but she posed naked because she knew damn well it was a smart financial decision so Giuliani needs to STFU!
Its a billion dollar business -Taken from Medium. com[link:https://medium.com/@Strange_bt_True/how-big-is-the-porn-industry-fbc1ac78091b|
According to various reports, currently, the porn industrys net worth is about $97 billion. This money is enough to feed at-least 4.8 billion people a day. Every year, Hollywood releases roughly 600 movies and makes $10 billion in profit. And how much porn industry makes? 13,000 films and close to $15 billion in profit. The porn industry makes more money than Major League Baseball, The NFL and The NBA combined.

(50,278 posts)I assume she got paid for posing which would make her in the same industry as Stormy Daniels. Someone should ask Rudy if that is selling one's body for sexual exploitation.
