Stormy Daniels was paid for her silence

[crud]

Dear news media, This possible indictment IS a big deal. It's not a false FEC filing, or a business records issue. It is a presidential candidate defrauding the American voters. No one knows if the discloser of trumps affair would have eroded his support enough to put Hillary in the White house. We will never know that, but we do know that trump thought it would, and illegally bought off her silence, so he could win. He cheated the American people, and the harm was done to us all.

2. Hey, poster, please use names and nouns

Pronouns are way too vague. We aren’t really sure who the “she” might be.

3. This

4. if you don't honestly know then you haven't been paying any attention

The post is obviously in reference to Stormy Daniels. I understand some posts require context, but if you are reading a political board then you are "really sure" who the pronouns refer to in this case.

6. I suspected that it might be Stormy but who can be sure?

After all, there were a lot of “shes” in Individual One’s past.

5. I edited the title of the thread

for more clarity. My apologies offered.

7. Thank you

As an aside, I think she should have bridled him and ridden him around a few of his golf courses during their pre-presidential romps. The country would have been better off for it.

8. Also serious is an attempt to obstruct and cover up the underlying crime. nt

15. The sneaky money-switch is the cover-up that is the serious matter.

potus should be held to a higher standard, not lower. We have to be able to trust our elected leaders.

It. Is. A. Hugh. Deal. (Old, Bad protest poster reference)

9. Of course that

Was a payment to be silent. It would cost a women millions and millions more to have sex with that lump of shit. Ask Melania how much she has made to have sext with that pig, the one time.

10. Was it ever revealed, was there a payment up front for the liason, or only later for silence

TDFG was so great in bed he had to pay her to go away and leave him alone, right?

11. I dont know but...

Given Daniels’ descriptions of Trump, its safe to say something other than mutual attraction motivated her to provide services.

12. mushroom

Lest we forget.

14. now you did it. I had almost forgotten...

[allegorical oracle]

19. Believe Cohen said it was a payment for silence. Maybe "affair" is used more casually than it used

to be. Didn't read Daniels' book, but always thought an affair at least suggested a few hook-ups, not just a one-night stand.

According to Wikipedia:

In a March 25, 2018, interview with 60 Minutes, Daniels said that she and Trump had sex once, and that later she had been threatened in front of her infant daughter and felt pressured to later sign a non-disclosure agreement.[59][60]

May turn out to be an expensive bit of fun for the Orange cretin.

13. All politicians lie, or tell half truths, all.

16. It might have kept a few christians

from voting for him but from what I heard they believed he asked forgiveness and all was whitewashed.

17. And don't forget that one person, Michael Cohen, who was part of the scheme and doing...

bidding of his boss, the said presidential candidate, was convicted and sent to prison already.

20. He paid her $130,000 to keep quiet. How much did he pay for the trick? nt

[Skittles]

21. she is a shakedown con artist

she is as vile and disgusting as Trump

[Johnny2X2X]

22. Paid the Playboy model too

Not just Stormy.

And those are the two that we know about. Probably many more who were scared into keeping their silence.
