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).

    Another story that I’ve been forced to repeat.

    Conservative woman goes on ‘The View’ TV show to defend Donnie after the pussy grabber tape comes out.

    One of the women on the panel keeps saying ‘pussy’ over and over. Finally the Conservative woman asks the other lady to stop using that vulgar language.

      There was a time when some of the Libertarian-minded conservatives said Trump was going to legalize weed. I think these two instances have an important relation: they are examples where conservatives of different types are superimposing their own beliefs onto Trump. He thus becomes the “perfect” candidate in their mind; the one who directly aligns with them in every way. This belief is very durable, able to withstand any facts that come from objective reality.

        I’m sure at some point Trump actually came out in favor of legal weed, exactly the same way he said he was for strong ‘Red Flag’ laws. He’s a child who will say anything

        Lifelong NYC resident. I was watching Trump since the days when Ivana was the star of the show and Donnie was the stooge who carried her handbag.

        There was a local satire magazine called ‘Spy.’ They loved to skewer the pompous, and Trump was always an easy target. They once described him as a ‘short fingered vulgarian,’ which is where the jokes about his tiny hands started.

        imho this article shows Donnie at his absolute finest. When handed a golden opportunity to get in good with the Manhattan elites Donnie let his greed, arrogance, and stupidity make him hated by the people he wanted to love him.
