Trump also assured Daniels that he and Melania didn’t “even sleep in the same room," she testified
After meeting the future president of the United States at a golf tournament in 2006, adult film star Stormy Daniels testified Tuesday that Donald Trump’s personal bodyguard asked if she would like to have dinner with the once-and-future Republican nominee.
“No, with an expletive in front,” Daniels said she told the aide in response, per NBC News. But she reconsidered after meeting with her publicist, she said, recalling their words: “If nothing else, you’ll get a great story” and “what’s the worst that could happen?”
But, according to Daniels, dinner never happened. When she got to Trump’s hotel room, she found him in pajamas – he later changed – and eager to discuss her work in the adult film industry, where she had risen from performer to director, and whether she had ever contracted and STD (“I’ve never tested positive for anything,” Daniels said).
That’s a lie. Let’s not bullshit ourselves. Clinton got away with it because people have affairs. Especially people in power. He wasn’t smart about it. He just said what was believable.
I don’t think he is even in the same hemisphere as Trump in terms of lying. But this was definitely a lie. I do think that the Republicans at the time were out to get him and it didn’t matter. But that’s completely different than Trump. That fucker lies worse than a rug.
Nobody believes that he didn’t have an affair with her. But he wasn’t being impeached for having an affair, he was being impeached for lying under oath. Which he very carefully did not do.
