Trump and his minions, including Guilianai, need to stop talking. That is good advice and it is free.

Mr. Guiliani has ties to Russia, both as mayor and as a presidential candidate. He needs to be asked what his relationship was and continues to be and if there is any future in that relationship.

Guiliani and FOX News is attempting to make hush money legal. It is not. Hush money is a form of racketeering. Where does it stop? Hush money for murder? 

Mr. Trump is stating his life is plagued with women making up stories and demanding money for one reason and one reason only, they are pretty women and he is a wealthy man. That is a lie. The public knows it is a lie. Donald Trump had two sexual identities; one public and one private. I think someone wrote a book recently about the private Trump and his favored hamburger. Just as the public doesn't know that Donald Trump, it doesn't know his sexual appetites either.

The proper way, the decent way anyone takes on people that lie about their reputation is through legal methods of restraining orders and exposure. If there was no relationship with these women, there would be no reason for hush money. Mr. Cohen could have been hired to deal with these issues and it would cost a lot less than handing out money like lollipops.

His wealth affords him the luxury of hiding his private side. As a private citizen, he was allowed all kinds of privacy, but, as the president (or in this case, as a presidential candidate) he is under a microscope. The only way adverse impacts to his public character are hidden is through corruption. There are excellent reasons for that, the president of the USA has enormous power including the power that kills people with sophisticated weapons. So, the idea Trump could continue the mystery of his private identity only proves he is not a worldly person. He is not naive, he is ridiculously lost in the world of wealth that provides a cloud of mystery.

The facts are clear. Ms. Clifford had a relationship with Mr. Trump. That relationship required her to disrobe and engage in intercourse. She has proof. She is not a stupid woman and no different than any other woman in the USA, she knows sunlight saves lives. She was verbally assaulted in the presence of her baby daughter by a man acting on behalf of Mr. Trump (before he was a candidate) and he threatened her life stating he basically would make her daughter an orphan.

Mr. Trump was in Russia for the purpose of business with the Miss USA pageant, stayed two nights and had prostitutes in his room compliments of the Russians, the prostitutes urinated on a bed in a suite where other USA dignitaries stayed. He had them urinate on the bed because he has insidious hatred for other people that have been a part of the political realm of the USA. 

The indulgence of Trump's private identity worked to trap him in blackmail with the Russians holding control. That is not healthy for a powerful man to begin with and it is poison for a candidate for president of the USA. At least it should have been poison. But, instead of being poison, it was tamped down by the Russians, through cyber warfare against the DNC and exploitation of that information in the publication on "Wikileaks." Trump, with assistance from Russia, was able to be narrowly be elected to President and Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton won the popular vote. It can be said, the American people knew what they were looking at and the electoral college failed them.

An investigation into the Russian influence into 2016 election was launched because the majority of Americans who voted for Ms. Clinton knew that level of influence was not good for the country. The FBI lead by Mr. Comey was then assaulted by Trump by firing a very competent Mr. Comey and immediately used the power of the USA presidency corruptly to allow Russians into the Oval Office and handed them classified documents. Congress did nothing because they were also held hostage by threats to effect their future elections (with or without Russian assistance) if they acted against his status as president of the USA. The entire majority of the USA Congress became cowards and maintained that stature by cowing to Trump and crossing the line of separation of powers.

The majority of Americans are appalled by the weakness of it's Congress to protect the country and it has resulted in a special prosecutor to sort through THE FACTS and find the illegality of what has occurred. Basically, the American people want THE TRUTH. The truth has been a threat to Mr. Trump in his private life and it threatens him today. Life goes on, the investigation continues, charges are filed, the GOP pretends this is nothing but a political stunt and the country awaits the conclusion of the investigation in the care of a highly competent man in Mr. Robert Mueller; the very man who took on the protections of their lives after September 11, 2001.
