TRUMP’S AFFAIR WITH A PORN STAR IS APPEARING REAL

…The unsigned non-disclosure agreement

 

Lawyer says he was not reimbursed from Trump for paying-off the porn star.

 

It is well known today that Donald J. Trump, years ago, would call radio stations and say that he was Trump’s spokesperson, John Barron.  Well, now we know that Trump may have used another alias, and that an American porn star, whose stage name is Stormy Daniels, she has filed a law suit against the real President Trump.

 

Daniel’s, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, is arguing that the non-disclosure agreement about an alleged affair with Trump is null and void because Trump never signed the agreement. 

 

If the Daniels/Clifford suit prevails, it would allow her to detail her alleged affair with Trump which she says was for over a year from 2006 to 2007.  But the better part is that this lawsuit itself now serves as key details of there being a real affair.  This lawsuit says the relationship included at least one 'meeting' with Mr. Trump in a bungalow at a Beverly Hills Hotel.”

 

The conundrum of this 28 page law suit is that false names are used in the suit, which also includes the original non-disclosure hush agreement, where Ms. Clifford was referred to by an alias 'Peggy Peterson' or 'PP' and Mr. Trump, was referred to by another alias 'David Dennison' or 'DD.'  And this non-disclosure had also been officially notarized.

 

Here is the history of this situation where it has been shown that Ms. Daniels/Clifford had received $130,000 from Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, for the non-disclosure of the alleged affair with Trump.  This agreement was signed by Daniels just before the 2016 election.

Cohen has since confirmed the hush agreement in a carefully worded statement saying that the Trump Organization and Trump Campaign were not involved.  However, the statement conspicuously did not rule out Trump's actual involvement. Then this week, the Wall Street Journal reported that Cohen had complained in the past about not being able to reach Trump during the process of the non-disclosure, and he also had not been reimbursed the $130,000.  This statement both suggests that Trump was indeed involved and it could open Trump up to serious legal jeopardy.

 

To show how serious the non-disclosure from Cohen was, it stated that Ms. Daniels/Clifford could be hit with a $1,000,000 fine for “every time she told the story of an alleged affair with Donald Trump”.  Yes, not just for one time, but a million dollars for every time she told her story.

Of course, Trump is denying that there was ever any affair.

 

But my basic question is about this hush document comes from another direction.  It is my understanding is that in order to notarize a document, especially one that references alias names, the notary has to see drivers licenses or other official ID’s to confirm what the real identities of ‘DD” and ‘PP’ are in real life.  If Trump says there was no affair, then how did the non-disclosure agreement of ‘PP” and “DD’ become notarized?

 

This new lawsuit refers to Daniels by her real name, Stephanie Clifford, and defendant Donald J. Trump, a.k.a. David Dennison ‘DD”, an individual that is currently a resident of the District of Columbia.

 

By the design of lawyer Cohen, the Hush Agreement used the above aliases to refer to Ms. Clifford and Mr. Trump.  The aliases were used in the nondisclosure agreement to protect the parties involved. The people to whom they referred were identified in another document attached to Daniels's lawsuit, although Dennison's real name is redacted.

 

You may remember that former New York Rep., Anthony Weiner went by the name of “Carlos Danger” in his lurid texts.  That name later became known as an “alias name generator”.  I would now expect there will be a number of “David Dennison”, ‘DD’ jokes in the future.

The reality is that in some ways, this lawsuit is a way for Daniels to put her side of the story into the public record without directly telling it. The lawsuit confirms details about the alleged affair that she previously shared with InTouch magazine in a 2011 interview that wasn't published until recently.

 

It appears that this lawsuit could re-introduce the Access Hollywood Tape, where several women came forward publicly to tell their personal stories about their sexual encounters with Mr. Trump.  Trump also denied those claims and said he was going to sue all of these women after the election.  He has not sued any of the accusers as of today.

 

But the whole point of this lawsuit is that Trump never signed the agreement.  Only his personal lawyer had signed it.

 

There are a number of issues here.

 

First, it is highly understood that attorneys do not pay off their client’s settlements as was done by Mr. Cohen.

 

Second, after making the hush payment, Cohen released a statement from Daniels denying “a sexual and/or romantic affair.” Daniels also added: “Rumors that I have received hush money from Donald Trump are completely false.” Daniels now says this statement was totally coerced by Cohen.

 

The legal question that needs to be answered is whether Trump actually needed to sign this agreement. This is the major legal question here. According to the nondisclosure agreement attached to the lawsuit, there was a line for ‘DD’, Trump's alias, ‘David Dennison’, to sign it, but the line is blank. (see Above)  The non-disclosure is signed by Daniels (using her real name) and the LLC set up by Cohen was signed by him.

The Cohen response to the lawsuit is that ‘DD’ claims that he has been damaged by alleged actions against him, including but not limited to the alleged threatened selling, transferring, licensing, publicly disseminating and/or exploiting the Images and/or Property and/or other Confidential Information relating to ‘DD’, all without the knowledge, consent or authorization of ‘DD’.

‘PP’ denies all such claims.

 

So, now it’s up to the courts.
