'I Was F**king Terrified!' Stormy Daniels Says She Took Trump Money So Trump 'Could Not Have Me Killed'

Porn Star Stormy Daniels said in a new documentary that she took hush money from then-candidate Donald Trump to create a paper trail so “he could n0t have me killed.”

Stormy Daniels — the stage name of the former Stephanie Clifford — is back in the news because of the imminent trial in the case that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has brought involving alleged hush money payments to Daniels, which resulted in a several-dozen-count indictment of Trump.

But on Monday, Peacock dropped the new documentary Stormy, a feature-length film that includes new interviews and footage telling the story of Daniels’s journey into history. In one particularly gripping portion of the doc, Daniels describes being “fucking terrified” when she was approached about taking the payment after the Access Hollywood tape came out:

STORMY DANIELS: My friend was like, you might actually have a problem. I don’t want to scare you, but based on the things you’ve told me. Now. You’re the whole Republican Party’s problem. And they like to make their problems go away.

Does Trump have the means to kill people?

He just feels like the type of person if he whacked someone or had someone whacked, would brag about it endlessly. So, chances seem low.

I hadn’t heard that.

The whole thing stinks to high heaven, including the golf course burial.

We should all be careful who we sleep with, but in reading more about these women that romped with Trump, I am starting to pity them. What misery and hassle they have to endure not to mention a reasonable concern for being physically harmed by some Orangeman sycophant.

If I remember, she hung herself but her Mom or somebody said that she was no way suicidal.

She does look just like Ivanka!! The similarities are mind boggling.
So why does Stormy refer to The Sick Fuck (TSF) as "TINY"???

The women probably could have made more money with a story in the magazine, but there isn't much point if they're murdered.

16. Think about it

Since we all know that Republican accusations against the other side are basically admissions, cough cough Epstein cough cough
