OT: American Politics

In a normal scenario, Stormy is huge news. In the Trump timeline though, yeah, she's a distraction from truly troubling shit.

Trump paid off a porn star for her silence (regarding an affair he had with said porn star that started shortly after his youngest child was born) using campaign funds

Remove Trump's name and slot in Obama's and imagine the earth shattering screaming there would have been.

No doubt, it's juicy and would be quite damning for any other president/politician.

tbh, it's pretty hard to "sensationalize" the potus paying $130k in hush money a week before the election and threatening the child of a porn star to cover up an affair on his pregnant wife with a porn star and then deny it when it becomes public and trash her using the office of the potus.

The interview provided nothing we didn't already know. Basically it was just an alternative format for providing the message. Worthwhile I guess for those looking for the juicy details. Eye-candy for the masses.

Meanwhile the US expels 60 Russian diplomats and barely a peep from the media today then back to Stormy.

Trump still treats Putin like a BFF but smartly stepped up to the plate with tough expulsions.

what do you mean we "know" this? Trump has denied all of it, and attacked her for it. it is fake news.

are you calling the president a blatant, baldfaced liar?

the media has been covering that nonstop.
 
Yeah, I mean I am not sure I understand why these women shouldn't have a platform to tell their side of the story and defend themselves.

Trump is angry about the bill that *he signed* because he's watching people on Fox News lie about it. Again: this is real life.

Per two senior administration officials, Trump continued to rail privately about the omnibus bill, and has become convinced of things that aren’t true about it.

Trump has been watching Fox, which had Coulter on Jeanine Pirro slamming Trump over the wall funding. That type of thing - as well as his conviction it includes Planned Parenthood funding - are animating him.
 
Am I the only one who thinks these interviews were nothing but unnecessary sensationalism. I guess they helped push the CNN ratings but other than that, what was the news value? From what I have heard and read there was nothing new revealed.

At least those two women get their moment in the spotlight.

She is promoting herself, cannot say I blame her. 60 Minutes had its largest audience in years. People want to see what Stormy has to say. Of course it was sensationlized but as she said, she is now being offered more money to do what she has done for years. Could be worse than getting paid to be filmed while getting laid,,,

On twitter, I responded to a right wing tweeter who was whining that people care about this which only affects the family by stating, will GOP started it by investigating a consensual blow job on Billy. Another stated the fake news media is just trying to make him bad with a sex scandal. My response if a sex scandal makes him bad, then so are about 95% of previous presidents given they basically got a little on the side, Eisenhower, FDR, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, any other President with slaves, Kennedy etc

I think the only ones who haven't were Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama, one for religious reasons, the other because he was afraid of his wife.
 
Yeah, there will be no boycotts.

And now the Ruskies are starting to clue in thay they badly over-reached with the poisoning fiasco. That might prompt them to be good hosts this summer which was not a given with all the hooligan issues they have. It’s really bad stuff, they are quite violent.

So FBI now says Manafort associate Konstantin Kilimnik is assessed to have had ongoing ties to Russian intelligence in 2016. Manafort had extensive contact with Kilimnik, met with him about the campaign and asked him to offer "private briefings" to Oleg Deripaska.
