Man.... I'm sure glad we've never had any other presidents that have had affairs. At least Trump's was 10 years BEFORE he was a politician.
I was certain that the American people, pushed by the liberal party, had decided that whatever a president does, sexually, is between him and his wife, and nobody else's business. And THAT is even while he's in the Oval office.
You'd think that an affair 10 years BEFORE he took office wouldn't even rate a second glance.
Let me ask; how can President Trump be lying if President Trump has not even commented on this?
Him lying to the American people and possibly breaking campaign finance law... well, I can hold him accountable for that.
Well, Trump is the president of the United States, right? The White House spokesman is Raj Shah, right? Donald Trump appointed Raj Shaw, right? Raj Shaw has said Trump has repeatedly denied the Stormy Daniels claims, right?
If Donald Trump isn't really saying any of this, then he should probably fire/let go another appointed official (to the long list).
But, had you been alive at that time, you would have been ok with Bill Clinton telling the American people "I did not have sex with that woman...." ?
Thank you I call this stuff as I see it.(not ragging on our president Donald trump's efficiency but honestly both he and the woman in question both have had careers that require "lieing" in some way so best to not take the words as "truthful" so quickly)This is probably the best response to the whole thing.
But, had you been alive at that time, you would have been ok with Bill Clinton telling the American people "I did not have sex with that woman...." ?
why does it matter? of course it's a sin if he did it but what difference does it ultimately make to the country? he's still president for 3 more years.....this is just a dull lack of news and they found something to sensationalize (the msm...)...what trump does with his body is his own business...maybe stormi is a russianwhere's cloudy and sunshine as well? can't forget foggy and tornado...lol
Well exactly, that's what other people say, that's not what President Trump said. Whether he should fire the Raj guy or not will be seen. I personally think he should fire him, but maybe President Trump will take into account his naiveté and will be clement about it, we'll see.
Also to comment on the campaign contribution thing. It's not a campaign contribution for your lawyer to pay someone else (and note President Trump did not even sign said NDA, but this is something his lawyer did on his own volition). A campaign contribution would be when someone contributes to the candidate, for example the large amount of money given to Hillary by many foreign governments in exchange for political favor.
I sort of thought that was the hole point of a president appointing people to his white house communications team, no? If they don't represent and relay what the president says, what is their job description exactly?
I'm not going to pretend I'm an expert on campaign finance law, but everything I've read (I don't trust CNN to give me credible information on their reports) said there is some basis to tie Trump's lawyer paying for the NDA to a campaign contribution as it was to benefit the Trump campaign. I don't think anyone can objectively state it wasn't for Trump or his campaign when it was 8 days before the election. There are already enough loop-holes in campaign finance rules, so maybe this is one of them. It's definitely something to look into and not something petty from my point-of-view. I'm not going to go soft on a politician simply because I liked him more than the opposition...
Absolutely not... Bill's whoredoms are irrelevant to me, but if you address the American people (as he did), don't lie to them. That's my point. The fact Bill did it while in office doesn't change any of this for me personally, it's that he straight up lied about it. That's why I'm saying Trump should just own it... I doubt a significant portion of his supporters will change their mind about him.
I just think it's a bit of a double-standard to only care when one party does it and then state "Well, Bill was in office when he did it!" as if that is suppose to be the game changer that exonerates Trump from lying to the American people and possible breaking campaign finance laws (something no one is even commenting on).
It's sort of why I don't identify with the Republicans. I hate partisan politics as both sides stick to double-standards and pretend that one minor detail that is different changes everything.
Why do you blindly believe her?He should just own it and move on.

Personally, I think everyone knew Trump's lack of morals before he was elected, so this shouldn't really be a big shocker. I'm more disappointed he's lying about it today than the fact he committed adultery in 2006 with a porn star. His sin is between he (and his wife), Daniels and God, but lying to the people is against every American. He should just own it and move on. I doubt a significant portion of his followers will even care if he does own it as it didn't stop them from voting for him when it was out there he bragged about his adulterous lifestyle. What's the worst that can happen if he owns it? Ironically, he'd get more credibility by owning it instead of lying about it.
1.) Do you think the $130,000 NDA should count as a campaign contribution as it was politically motivated for Daniels not to speak about the affair 8 days before the election?
2.) Do you believe Trump when he states the affair never happened? If so, what do you think the $130,000 NDA was for then?
