Stormy Daniels says in a new lawsuit that her former attorney betrayed her and became a "puppet" for President Donald Trump and his personal lawyer while still representing her.

The filing Wednesday alleges that Trump attorney Michael Cohen "hatched a plan" and "colluded" with the adult film actress' lawyer, Keith Davidson, to get her to go on Fox News in January and falsely deny she had an affair with Trump more than a decade ago.

Cohen even referred to Davidson as "pal" in one text cited in the complaint.

The lawsuit against Davidson and Cohen also claims that Trump was aware the two attorneys were communicating and coordinating for his benefit — unbeknownst to Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford.

1. Cohen and Davidson were in that billion dollar UAE meeting together...

2. I posted this hypothesis in a different thread awhile ago

and this is apparently what Avenatti's next phase... and why he was attempting to be in attendance at Cohen's last hearing (and was basically rebuffed).

3. More obstruction and conspiracies.

Should be easier to ask, what hasn't Cohen and tRump done lately that isn't illegal.
