Stormy Daniels, the pornography actor who became a household name in 2018 recently talked about former President Donald Trump. In 2018, it was revealed that Trump had paid her to keep quiet about a 2006 affair.
Trump posted on Truth Social about Stormy Daniels:
“With murders and violent crime surging like never before in New York City, the Radical Left Manhattan D.A., Alvin Bragg, just leaked to the Fake News Media that they are still going after the Stormy ”Horseface” Daniels Bull….!Working closely with the Weaponized Justice Department, this is a continuation of the Greatest Witch Hunt of all time. They long ago missed the Statute of Limitations, & I recently won big money against “Stormy” in the 9th Circuit – NEVER HAD AN AFFAIR. This is old news!”
Following the post, Daniels thanked the former president for “admitting” to their alleged affair despite previously declaring that he “never had an affair”. She also mocked the one-time president for using wrong grammar in his Truth Social post.
The war of words between the two on social media came as New York City prosecutors began presenting evidence to a grand jury about the “hush money scheme” Mr Trump is accused of using to keep Ms Daniels from disclosing his extramarital affair with her before the 2016 election.
Mr Trump blamed his former lawyer Michael Cohen without taking his name and said there was no reason to not rely on him.
“With respect to the ‘Stormy’ nonsense, it is VERY OLD & happened a long time ago, long past the very publicly known & accepted deadline of the Statute of Limitations placed full Reliance on the JUDGEMENT & ADVICE OF COUNCIL, who I had every reason to believe had a license to practice law, was competent, & was able to appropriately provide solid legal services,” he said in his post.
Responding to Mr Trump’s attack on her, Ms Daniels referred to the former president’s insulting nickname for her.
“Thanks for just admitting that I was telling the truth about EVERYTHING. Guess I’ll take my ‘horse face’ back to bed now, Mr former ‘president’. Btw, that’s the correct way to use quotation marks,” she said, sharing a screenshot of Mr Trump’s “Truth”.
Her tweet sparked a number of sarcastic responses on Twitter.
Constitutional lawyer Mark S Zaid mocked Mr Trump further for using the word council. He said: “I am always amazed that people do not understand difference between ‘council’ and ‘counsel’. You would think with all the millions of dollars Trump spent on lawyers he would know how to properly spell the word. Oh, and Stormy is right that he just made a very important admission.”
Mr Trump is expected to face charges for falsifying business records as the Manhattan DA’s Office has summoned witnesses to testify about the payments.
