This afternoon, a reporter asked Donald Trump about his lawyer Michael Cohen’s payment to porn star Stormy Daniels:
JUST IN: President Trump says he did not know about $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels, and tells reporters they would have to ask his attorney, Michael Cohen, why the payment was made, and adds that he does not know where Cohen obtained the money for the payment.

From the Washington Examiner:
The lawyer of adult film star Stormy Daniels, who has been involved in a legal battle with President Trump over an alleged extramarital affair, said he was eager to test Trump’s “truthfulness” when he told reporters he was unaware of the $130,000 payment made by his lawyer to Daniels in exchange for her silence on the matter.
“We very much look forward to testing the truthfulness of Mr. Trump’s feigned lack of knowledge concerning the $130k payment as stated on Air Force One. As history teaches us, it is one thing to deceive the press and quite another to do so under oath. #searchforthetruth #basta,” Michael Avenatti said in a tweet Thursday afternoon.

Either way, the truth usually has a way of coming out. Guess we’ll just have to stay tuned to find out if it came out today.
