White House denies Trump had affair with adult film actress

Source: The Hill




BY JONATHAN EASLEY - 03/07/18 03:31 PM EST

The White House on Wednesday denied that President Trump had an affair with adult film actress Stephanie Clifford, who is aggressively pursuing legal avenues to free herself from a contract that prohibits her from talking about their alleged relationship.

“The president has addressed these directly and made very well clear that none of these allegations are true,” Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said during a White House briefing. “It has already been won in arbitration.”

Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen has acknowledged paying Clifford – who goes by the stage name Stormy Daniels - $130,000 to not discuss her claims of an affair with Trump.

The White House on Wednesday pointed to an arbitration hearing that took place in a Los Angeles court in late February. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders claimed that Trump's lawyer won the arbitration and that the judge ruled the nondisclosure agreement with Clifford to be binding.

Stormy Daniels's lawyer mocks White House claim that Trump won at arbitration: ‘He also won the popular vote’

BY BRANDON CARTER - 03/07/18 03:42 PM EST

A lawyer for adult-film star Stormy Daniels mocked the White House for saying President Trump won an arbitration case with with the actress, jokingly saying “he also won the popular vote.”

During Wednesday’s White House press briefing, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters that Trump has already addressed allegations of an affair with Daniels and “made very well clear that none of these allegations are true.”

“This case has already been won in arbitration, and anything beyond that I would refer you to the president’s outside counsel,” Sanders said.

Daniels’s attorney, Michael Avenatti, responded to the White House claim to a reporter from The New York Times.

THANK YOU Sarah, baby.

Now we can all breath (easier) and move on to your next vomit comment.

BTW, Sarah, have you stopped to think what your life is going to be like when all this is finally over? I bet not.

Because if the White House denies something, then that thing, whatever it is, is almost certainly true.

The one thing we can always count on is that the Trump White House will lie about anything and everything, every chance they get.

In his twisted, thinks-he's-outsmarting-everyone thinking, he figures that by not signing it no one can tie it to himhense the WH denial and Sanders' lies.

But think again, orange dumbo, you didn't pay the lawyer back so he outed you—wittingly or not but you're sordid secret is out to the public and photos probably to follow.
