Washington — President Trump denied (click here) on Thursday knowing of a $130,000 payment his lawyer made to a pornographic film actress who claims to have had a sexual encounter with him, an assertion that threatened to complicate his legal battle against her.
Mr. Trump made his first public remarks about the matter aboard Air Force One as he returned to Washington from White Sulphur Springs, W.Va., where he had held a round table on tax cuts. Asked by a reporter if he knew about the payment to the actress, Stormy Daniels, whose given name is Stephanie Clifford, he said, “No.”
Asked why Michael D. Cohen, his personal lawyer, had made the payment, Mr. Trump said: “You’ll have to ask Michael Cohen. Michael is my attorney, and you’ll have to ask Michael Cohen.”
The president said he did not know where the money had come from, and ignored a question about whether he ever set up a fund Mr. Cohen could draw from....
So, let's see. Something like nine women or more have stated they had an affair with "The Don" behind the backs of the women he publically was involved with; "The Don" says it is all nonsense to get money, BUT, given the opportunity to sue for $20 million for a non-disclosure agreement he never signed he launches a lawsuit against one woman stating, they had an affair and was threatened with her life to keep quiet.
Would I sign a non-disclosure agreement with a gun to my head? Well, let's just say I agree with the Bald Eagle.
I a strange man can find me in a parking lot completely defenseless while I am caring for my baby daughter, I pay attention.
California P.C. 422(a): Criminal Threats (click here)
A conviction for criminal threats can carry substantial consequences which is why one should immediately retain a criminal defense attorney to start your defense. This charge may be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony with a “strike” allegation. Consequently, if one is convicted of a strike offense, their sentence will double if they’re subsequently convicted of another felony. Often times, this charge consists of only one witness making an allegation that you threatened them without any recorded (video and or audio) evidence....

President Donald Trump's attorneys claim (click here) that Stormy Daniels, the porn star who says she had an affair with Trump that began in 2006, violated a nondisclosure agreement and is now liable for at least $20 million in damages, The New York Times reported Friday.
The $20 million figure reportedly represents the 20 times Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, violated that agreement, according to The Times.
"Mr. Trump intends to pursue his rights to the fullest extent permitted by the law," one of the filings read.
Trump's court filings come amid a civil suit Clifford filed earlier this month. In the suit, she alleged that a $130,000 nondisclosure agreement between her and Trump is invalid because Trump never signed the form. Clifford has also offered to return the money so she could freely talk about her experience....
