White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Friday refused to answer questions about Stormy Daniels, a porn actress whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, just one day after reports surfaced that President Donald Trump was upset with Sanders for how she handled questions about the affair.

The curt response follows reports that Trump was upset with Sanders for giving the Clifford story steroids in the way she responded to questions from reporters on Wednesday about the affair, CNN reported.
