I’m guessing we’re in for some serious rage tweeting in the next 36 hours.
If the only issue is money, would she be free to tell all if she had a “sugar daddy”?
If Stormy really wanted to blow things up, she would just go public with whatever kompromat she has.
I assume she’s not doing that because she’d rather sell the goods than give them away, and the declaratory relief action is her way of trying to get any potential buyers off the hook in advance.
I wonder if any of those buyers is also helping fund the lawsuit. She could sure use a Peter Thiel type right now to make sure she can go the distance.
No matter what happens Daniel’s story is going to be told. Trump is probably going to fire Cohen. Cohen is probably going to find himself in court defending an illegal campaign contribution. Daniels is going to have first class representation so ultimately she will be able to write her book.
“Cohen has sought to prevent adult film actress Stephanie Clifford from speaking publicly about an alleged sexual relationship with Trump.”
Donald should’ve just stuck to screwing workers, vendors, and customers.
No problem. Her publisher will cough it up without complaint.
Ladies and gentleman, the comedy stylings of Bruce Chandling!!
First, the Trump team’s public lies about the agreement, plus the alleged fraud in a statement about the subject of the agreement, may well vitiate any confidentiality, assuming the agreement was ever signed in the first place. Plus, if this did go to court, the Trumpies would have to explain why a dummy LLC was set up to make payments using fictitious names as payor and payee.
The prospect of the revealing of Trump’s “shortcomings” is driving him ape shit.
Depends.
Please Please release the “photos” you eluded to. love to see the aging blowhard in action. emmm come to think of it the entire world will each pay one dollar to see the photos. that would easily pay the Broken Arbitration amount that would be due if In fact the original arbitrator would agree the arbitration had been broken. lol its complicated. with much $$$$ left over
Or keeping things zipped.
IANALIRL so whatevs, but I did catch some legal-dude on MSNBC who said the courts would likely reject most business about this contract since it relies on arbitration. In other words, the court would simply send it back to arbitration even if the complaint was that there was no contract to begin with.
However, more importantly, while Godzilla barfs at Mothra legal-wise, the story remains front and center.
All I can say is that I’m happy that this complaint was filed in Los Angeles County (and not in my county).
It’s curious but I’ve never seen any statement from Trump’s camp acknowledging Cohen as an employee or personal lawyer. As near as I can figure Cohen is a fixer and bagman who works mainly with the Trumps to set up money laundering mechanisms between them and Russian oligarch/mob money, taking a piece of the action or some side deal as his fee which apparently covers fixing various problems his patrons may run into.
He’s a made man. Too late.
Disclaimer: all I know about this stuff is from what I learned from watching Goodfellas.
Don’t know if I agree with that argument. If there was no agreement then there was no agreement for arbitration.
Also, I’m wondering if the NDA might be unenforceable as against public policy.
@j.dave – what’s your take?
one would hope there are sugar millions out there willing to pay her. hope its a wonderful thing Trump is suffering death by a thousand cuts. paying for a lifetime of greed
God no. Someone can narrate the proceedings to me. Maybe we could hire David Attenborough and he could describe the unnatural act of a gazelle and hippo mating in a watering hole.
