Was it Trump who got a Playmate pregnant and not GOP chair Eliot Broidy?

1. Many people are saying this

I don't think Broidy is high profile enough to warrant a $1.6 million payout for any potential mistress and abortion.

[Kingofalldems]

2. Exactly. This one smells to high heaven.

[NewJeffCT]

3. If that story had come out before the election

I'm guessing that at least some evangelical/religious voters would have either stayed home or voted 3rd party instead of voting Trump.

[rurallib]

25. There was a time I thought that also, but now I don't know

I always told my wife he would be golden until the videos of him with little boys was released but now I doubt even that would do it.

All the evangelicals really care about is power so they can impose their beliefs on everybody. The ends justify the means. Trump will ask for forgiveness and be forgiven.

[cyclonefence]

6. I agree

This sounded fishy from the beginning. There are plenty of high-profile Republicans in congress who've had embarrassing sexual misbehaviors made public who could have benefited from such a payout, but not this guy, who nobody's ever heard of. What difference if his reputation is ruined? Republicans have abandoned their congressional careers because of sexual issues, but Michael Cohen didn't bail them out. This was Trump's, no question in my mind.

[dameatball]

26. That makes sense.

[CatMor]

4. Ugh.....both those men are repulsive

[Scarsdale]

22. Yes, they are.

They look so much alike, maybe she was confused?? Both have multiple chins, fat faces and smirks. They should thank their lucky stars they have $$$, or in tRump's case, the illusion of $$$$.

[pnwest]

31. i mean..... there's just not enough money that could coerce me in EITHER case! EEEWWWWWW

[CatMor]

34. Same here. I would rather be broke.

[manor321]

5. Public appearances?

Are there public pictures with Trump and the lady together?

[Gothmog]

7. Time will tell

[rickford66]

8. DNA DNA DNA DNA DNA DNA DNA DNA DNA

[raven mad]

9. +1

[robbob]

10. DNA?

I thought she had an abortion?

[rickford66]

13. I had trouble reading the article.

Is abortion mentioned? Maybe there's a blue dress?

[bluestarone]

21. I think i read some where that she still has the dress she wore??

Maybe there is DNA????????????? I love it!!!!!!!1

[dameatball]

27. That was Stormy. They do look similar.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

35. That would never happen. They need to keep the jackal DNA a secret until

their plan finally comes to fruition.

[shanti]

11. Gad...

Didn't he EVER wrap it up?? I'd lay odds that there is more than one drumpf child out there not from any marriages.

[smirkymonkey]

12. Now THAT is a horrifying thought.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

29. Apparently not.

Karen McDougal said he never wore condoms when she had sex with him, either.

I don't buy that he's a "notorious germaphobe" because of that little (pun intended) tidbit.

And when he said that his "Vietnam" was "dodging STVs", it makes me think he never uses protection.

And now I have to go buy a gallon of Brain Bleach. Excuse me.

[Stinky The Clown]

14. I thought that from Day One

[canetoad]

15. Sure looks like it

This is a great article (courtesy of another DU thread) laying out the logic.

Loved this paragraph:

"By a stroke of good fortune, Cohen already had a sex-scandal-with-an-adult-entertainer-hush-money-NDA template in his hard drive, since he had recently drafted at least one for Donald Trump. Indeed, Cohen didn’t even bother to change the pseudonyms. (That economical use of attorney resources explained away what otherwise could have been a very awkward detail in the narrative.)"

[Kingofalldems]

16. I think this story has legs.

Don't buy the huge payment out of someone no one has ever heard of.

[Kirk Lover]

18. I wonder who's money paid for that one.....Mother Russher? nt

[Kingofalldems]

20. I would say yes.

[Kirk Lover]

17. I tell ya one thing...it ain't the Broidy dude..and Avenetti said as much. nt

[Blue_Tires]

19. I'm looking forward to the watching the evangelicals

twist themselves into pretzel knots trying to explain Trump paying a fling to have an abortion (which I'm wagering is only a matter of time before it is revealed)

[Scarsdale]

23. Well, the very religious

Graham already stated that sexual flings are nobody's business. I wonder if HE has had a few?

[onlyadream]

24. If the child was born

Then all one would have to do is look at the mouth. If it looks strange then it’s a Trump.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

28. Why would someone as obscure as Elliott Broidy,

who is not a politician and apparently has never been interested in being one, pay that much money to cover up a fling with a Playmate, even if an abortion was involved? Maybe it was to keep his wife from taking him to the cleaners in a divorce, costing him even more than that; otherwise I can't think of a reason.

Maybe the money trail can be followed back to Trump. Did he, or the slush fund managed by Cohen, reimburse Broidy? Did Broidy ever pay anything out of pocket at all?

[Iliyah]

30. It seems to point in t-rump's direction.

But as we know it, t-rump's supporters including the so called "Christian" evangelist will say "well that was then and here is now cause t-rump has been saved" bullshit and/or ain't no body's business unless you have a "D" by your name.

The hypocrisy. This pisses me off.

[Backwoodsrider]

32. yep the picture of those 2 together never made sense

I am a scarred old hillbilly in a wheelchair but odds are I would have sex with a Playmate sooner than this guy hes not a looker.

ick I just tasted a little burp up thinking of him naked

FACTS YOU WIN COME ON DOWN!!

33. They have them in your size, Twitler

[7962]

36. Unless she speaks & a test is run, this means zero. Waste of more time.

[Kingofalldems]

37. Says you.

[7962]

38. Yes. Says me. Every day more crap thats meaningless. Focus of the REAL issues.

Its starting to look like all this stuff is leaking on purpose to divert attention from what trump is doing RIGHT NOW. Cohen's bank records, stormy, who got who pregnant. NONE of thats putting trump in an impeachment situation. Or a criminal charge. Unless its some jammed up shit like what happened to Clinton 20 yrs ago. Which results in him STILL being in office.
But I guess it is entertaining!!

[duforsure]

39. DNA will prove it.
