Trump’s porn star mistress Stormy Daniels just sued him

In a stunning Tuesday evening development, porn star Stormy Daniels has decided to sue Trump amid claims that his team is attempting to silence her despite the fact that her “hush agreement” is invalid because Trump never signed it.

The civil suit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court and outlines that fact that while Daniels and Trump’s attorney, Michael Cohen, signed the NDA, Trump himself did not.

Per NBC News, “According to the lawsuit, Clifford and Trump had an intimate relationship that lasted from summer 2006 “well into the year 2007.” The relationship allegedly included meetings in Lake Tahoe and at the Beverly Hills Hotel.”

The 2016 hush agreement mandated that Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, was to be paid $130,000 in exchange for not disclosing any information about the sexual relationship between her and Trump. Clifford argues that while the contract is invalid, given the absence of Trump’s signature, that hasn’t stopped Cohen from his continued attempts to silence her.

Add your name to millions demanding Congress take action on the President’s crimes. IMPEACH TRUMP & PENCE!

“To be clear, the attempts to intimidate Ms. Clifford into silence and ‘shut her up’ in order to ‘protect Mr. Trump’ continue unabated,” says the suit. “On or about February 27, 2018, Mr. Trump’s attorney Mr. Cohen surreptitiously initiated a bogus arbitration proceeding against Ms. Clifford in Los Angeles.”

Stormy Daniels and her attorney, Michael Avenatti, are asking court to formally declare that the hush agreement and accompanying agreements “were never formed, and therefore do not exist, because, among other things, Mr. Trump never signed the agreements.”

Trump is further implicated because, per the rules of the New York bar, Cohen is required to keep his client, Trump, informed at all times. As such, Trump should be aware – and is duly complicit – in the illegal activity.

“[I]t strains credulity to conclude that Mr. Cohen is acting on his own accord and without the express approval and knowledge of his client Mr. Trump.”

The lawsuit is only the latest move in a string of incredible developments. In a previously published In Touch Magazine interview, Daniels claimed that Trump had an affair with her in 2005 shortly after Melania gave birth to their child.

“I actually don’t even know why I did it, but I do remember while we were having sex, I was like, ‘Please, don’t try to pay me,’” Daniels told the magazine.

“We hung out for a little while, and he just kept saying, ‘I’m gonna call you, I’m gonna call you. I have to see you again. You’re amazing. We have to get you on The Apprentice,’” she added.

Trump, for his part, has been accused of sexual harassment or misconduct by at least 19 women. He has neither confessed to these crimes nor taken any degree of responsibility for them. Even in the face of damning evidence – such as the Access Hollywood tapes – the President has refused to address the issue.

It seems that Trump’s vile treatment of women, including while married to his current wife, is finally coming back to haunt him– in court, no less, the most Trumpian way possible.
