We Asked Republicans Why They Think Trumps Lawyer Gave A Porn Star $130,000
They insisted theyre preoccupied with more weighty matters.
By Igor Bobic
WASHINGTON ― The personal attorney of the president of the United States acknowledged this week that he paid an adult film star $130,000 just before the 2016 presidential election. The bombshell admission would have almost certainly rocked any previous administration, raising a whole host of questions, like, Did this in any way violate campaign finance law? and, Dear God, why would the presidents lawyer ever pay a porn star?
Republican lawmakers, however, said on Wednesday they had no interest whatsoever in the matter. They ducked and dodged questions about the payment, explaining they were not closely following a story about a president and a porn star. Some begged off inquiries by saying they were wholly engrossed by this weeks ongoing debate over immigration in the Senate.
Thats the least thing on my mind right now, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told HuffPost.
Graham, who was one of the House prosecutors in the impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton, added he was not remotely curious about why the lawyer paid a porn star $130,000 shortly before Donald Trump won the White House race.
