“Trump, Stormy Daniels, Michael Cohen, Dems”

A woman with long hair and an unattached nose.

Today I went back into my extensive computer files to remind all of us about the facts. Here they are:

3.10.18 -- “This Truly Sickens Me:  Stormy Daniels’ Perverse Tour”-- by Donna Garner

This truly sickens me that those who want to destroy America have chosen to follow a sure path to destruction.  

Without going into the totally perverse and lurid details being released by Stormy Daniels regarding her supposed “consensual relationship” with Donald Trump in 2006 (which he totally denies), I believe we need to consider the source – Stormy Daniels – just another liar who is promoting herself.

It is obvious that Stormy is trying to resurrect her despicable porn career by using the all-too-willing, hate-Trump media to give her free publicity.  What a deal!  Grab the headlines by telling outrageous lies about Donald Trump and generate customers for your sex performances!

It is no coincidence that Stormy Daniels is now conducting a national tour entitled “Make America Horny Again.”  A person does not have to be a “rocket scientist” to figure out what she is doing; she is obviously trying to rejuvenate her porn sex career by using our President’s name to launch her miserable career.  

Interestingly enough, the Washington Post just came out with an article on Stormy Daniels, painting her as a “talented film actress…wife…mother of a seven-year old daughter…lives in Dallas.  The WP says Stormy is a “pioneer of the porn industry…ambitious…resilient…a point of pride among sex workers and others in the industry who are tackling issues such as human trafficking and who have long felt marginalized.” 

[May God help us if Stormy Daniels is now the poster child for those who are suffering in the human sex trafficking trade.]

Not once does the Wash. Post mention Stormy Daniels’ outrageous porn sex queen tour because then the savvy public would know what she is really after: fame, fortune, and lots of paying customers who come to watch her sordid performances.

Thankfully, Pres. Trump just keeps right on accomplishing wonders for our country.  He does not let corrupt, perverse, degenerate, wicked, lewd, vile, immoral, jealous, and unprincipled individuals to obstruct his progress in helping him to fulfil his promises to the American people. 

Amazingly, in spite of anything and everything that the leftists have thrown in his path, Pres. Trump has already accomplished in a little over a year some 65% of his conservative agenda.

The good news is that more successes for America are to come; and soon Stormy Daniels and other such liars will fade from view, never to be heard from again.

 EXCERPTS FROM OTHER MEDIA SOURCES AS THEY HAPPENED

7.26.18 – “Michael Cohen Secretly Recorded Conversation with CNN's Cuomo, Telling Him He Paid Stormy 'on My Own'” – by Lukas Mikelionis – Fox News --

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/07/26/michael-cohen-secretly-recorded-conversation-with-cnns-cuomo-telling-him-paid-stormy-on-my-own-report.html

Michael Cohen, President Trump's former lawyer, secretly recorded a conversation with CNN's Chris Cuomo and admitted in the tape to arranging—on his own—a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels in 2016The Wall Street Journal reported late Wednesday, citing unnamed sources.

 …The reported tape could potentially be used by the White House to distance Trump from the Daniels payment and damage Cohen’s character.

“I did it on my own,” Cohen said about the payment in the recording, according to the newspaper. Cohen previously said he “facilitated” the payment with his own money and called it a “private transaction.”

 “12.11.18 – “Stormy Daniels Ordered To Pay President Trump $292G in Legal Fees” – by Matt Richardson --  Fox News  --- https://www.foxnews.com/politics/stormy-daniels-ordered-to-pay-president-trump-292g-in-legal-fees

Adult film star Stormy Daniels must pay President Trump $293,000 in legal fees, a judge ruled on Tuesday.

"The U.S. District Court today ordered Stormy Daniels (real name Stephanie Clifford) to pay President Trump $292,052.33 to reimburse his attorneys’ fees (75% of his total legal bill), plus an additional $1,000 in sanctions to punish Daniels for having filed a meritless lawsuit against the President designed to chill his free speech rights," Charles J. Harder, the president's legal counsel, said in a statement.

"The court’s order," Harder said, "along with the court’s prior order dismissing Stormy Daniels’ defamation case against the President, together constitute a total victory for the President, and a total defeat for Stormy Daniels in this case."

Daniels' lawsuit against Trump was tossed out of court in October, with U.S. District Judge S. James Otero citing free-speech grounds.

 12.14.18 – “Former FEC Commissioners: Trump-Cohen ‘Hush’ Payments Not Necessarily a Violation” – by Adam Shaw, Fox News -- https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ex-fec-commissioners-trump-cohen-hush-payments

 But Trump said in an interview with Fox News’ Harris Faulkner on “Outnumbered Overtime” that the Cohen payments were “not a campaign finance violation.” He has previously tweeted that they were a “simple private transaction.”

…former FEC commissioners agree. Hans von Spakovsky -- who served on the FEC between 2006 and 2008 -- told Fox News “The blackmail threat by Daniels and McDougal to reveal their claims would exist whether or not Trump was running for office. He was a well-known celebrity, and celebrities face these claims all the time,” he said.

The crux of the debate comes down to whether the payments, allegedly amounting to contributions in excess of legal limits, were campaign-related and “for the purpose of influencing any election for Federal Office” as the Federal Election Campaign Act says.

In an op-ed for FoxNews.com, von Spakovsky pointed to the campaign-finance charges against former Sen. John Edwards, who had supporters pay his mistress to keep quiet with campaign funds during a Democratic presidential bid. The charges against Edwards eventually were dismissed.

 "Convicting Donald Trump of a criminal campaign finance violation will be extremely difficult, if not impossible," he wrote. "Just as Edwards was found not guilty, the same is likely to happen to President Trump if he is charged while he is president or after he leaves the White House."

On the question of whether it would be impeachable, he noted that other violations -- such as one involving former President Barack Obama's 2008 campaign -- were only pursued as a civil matter:

"As for the claim the hush-money payments would be an impeachable offense, members of Congress would have to explain why prior cases in which campaigns like that of Barack Obama paid civil penalties to the Federal Election Commission for violations of federal campaign finance law were not grounds for impeachment."

Bradley Smith, a former FEC chairman from 2000-2005, said it was a “relatively easy case” to argue that Trump and Cohen did not commit a campaign-finance violation. He argued that prosecutors should have to prove the payment was only made in connection with his presidential run.

The standard is: ‘Does the obligation exist because you’re running for office?’”

"Mr. Trump’s alleged decade-old affairs occurred long before he became a candidate for president and were not caused by his run for president," he wrote. "Renting campaign office space, printing bumper stickers and yard signs, hiring campaign staff, paying for polling, and buying broadcast ads are all obligations that exist for the purpose of influencing an election. Paying hush money to silence allegations of decade-old affairs is not."
