Let's hear it for STORMY DANIELS, who defied her NDA and has been determined to get Trump [View all]

from the very beginning.

The two charges that Cohen fingered Trump for are why Stormy decided to hire Michael Avenatti, and to go public.

THANK YOU, STORMY DANIELS.



Just as a reminder, when Stormy started making her public appearances, Trump was threatening her with $1 million fines EVERY TIME she made a public statement about her arrangement with Essential consultants. That's what the NDA had said. So every time she went out in public, she was defying that -- and trusting Avenatti that the NDA couldn't stop her.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2018/03/25/transcript-stormy-daniels-60-minutes-interview/457437002/

Intro: A week and a half before the 2016 election, Donald Trump’s personal attorney paid a porn star named Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about her alleged relationship with the Republican candidate for president. Today, that arrangement is well on its way to becoming the most talked-about “hush agreement” in history, with potential legal and political implications for the president. Through his spokesman, Mr. Trump has denied having an affair with Stormy Daniels, and his lawyers are now threatening her with financial ruin, saying she has to pay $1 million dollars every time she violates her agreement to stay silent. But that didn’t stop her from coming on 60 Minutes.

(Editor's note: Stormy Daniels' real name is Stephanie Clifford.)

Anderson Cooper: For sitting here talking to me today you could be fined a million dollars I mean aren't you taking a big risk?

Stephanie Clifford: I am.

Anderson Cooper: I guess I’m not 100% sure on why you're doing this.
