VietPress USA (May 2nd, 2018): President
always denies that he didn't have any sexual affair with Porn star Stormy
Daniels.
Trump's long time personal lawyer Michael Cohen singed a
Nondisclosure Agreement with Porn star Stormy Daniels and paid her US$130,000 a
month before election to force her not to public her sexual affair with Trump
nearly one year in 2006.
Porn star Daniels told to Press and Media that someone had
threatened her so that she asked to pay back hush money of US$130,000 to lawyer
Cohen because that Agreement is invalid without signature of Trump. Porn star
Daniels sues President Trump and his lawyer Michael Cohen. Michael Cohen also
sues Daniels for US$20 Million.
President Trump told that he didn't know about the Nondisclosure
Agreement that his lawyer Cohen signed with porn star Stormy Daniels; and he
also said that he never know about the hush money of US$130,000 Cohen paid to
Daniels.
But on April 27, 2018, Trump confessed he used his personal
lawyer Michael Cohen represented him "with this crazy Stormy Daniels
deal" (https://www.vietpressusa.us/2018/04/trump-now-confesses-he-used-his.html)
Today suddenly Trump's new lawyer Judy Giuliani said on Wednesday
that President Trump repaid his personal
attorney Michael Cohen for a $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels,
directly contradicting the president's past statements.

Giuliani: Trump repaid Cohen $130K for payment to porn star

During an appearance on Fox News Channel's "Hannity," Giuliani said the money had been "funneled ... through the law firm and the president repaid it."
Asked if Trump knew about the arrangement, Giuliani said: "He didn't know about the specifics of it, as far as I know. But he did know about the general arrangement, that Michael would take care of things like this, like I take care of things like this for my clients. I don't burden them with every single thing that comes along. These are busy people."
Trump told reporters several weeks ago that he didn't know about the $130,000 payment to Daniels as part of a nondisclosure agreement she signed days before the 2016 presidential election.
Asked aboard Air Force One whether he knew about the payment, Trump said flatly: "No." Trump also said he didn't know why Cohen had made the payment or where he got the money.
Giuliani, who joined Trump's legal team last month, said the president had repaid Cohen over several months, indicating the payments continued through at least the presidential transition, if not into his presidency.
He also says the payment "is going to turn out to be perfectly legal" because "that money was not campaign money."
Daniels says she had a sexual encounter with Trump in 2006 and was paid to keep quiet as part of a nondisclosure agreement she is now seeking to invalidate. She has also filed a defamation suit against Trump, who denies having sex with Daniels.
Daniels' lawyer, Michael Avenatti, called the comment "a stunning revelation."
"Mr. Trump evidently has participated in a felony and there must be serious consequences for his conduct and his lies and deception to the American people," he said.
Cohen's payment to the president's accuser in the weeks leading up to the presidential election could be cast as an illegal contribution but not if he were acting on the president's behest and with his money.
