Stormy Daniels, who is the porn star who can get Trump indicted

Stephanie Clifford, better known by her stage name Stormy Daniels, probably never even remotely imagined that one day she would become a familiar face to millions and the woman who could bring down Donald Trump, making him the first president accused of American history

Precisely in his role as a porn star Stormy Daniels met Donald Trump in 2006, who was then recently married to Melania and had recently become the father of Barron, the fifth son of the former American president

Trump had long been a big-time real estate developer and had also become a small-screen star with the show “The Apprentice”

According to reports, the spark of passion between the two struck immediately: the then sixty-year-old Trump noticed the 27-year-old in 2006 during a celebrity golf tournament in Nevada: the tycoon invited her first to dinner and then to his room

The two met several other times, Trump called her from a private number on several occasions calling her ‘Honeybunch’ (in Italian ‘treasure’, ed) and promised repeatedly to make her appear on ‘The Apprentice’. After months, however, Clifford stopped answering

In 2016, after Trump’s candidacy, the porn star tried to sell the story of her relationship with the presidential candidate to the media and tabloids, initially without any success

But then the release of ‘Access Hollywood’ off-airs, in which Trump described his views on sex and how he touched women in foul language, made the story of Stormy Daniels more attractive to the media

It was then that Trump’s former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, offered Stormy Daniels $130,000 in exchange for her silence, and the woman accepted by signing the agreement on the set of her latest pornstar film. A payment over which Trump now risks prosecution

The New York attorney’s office has long been investigating Trump’s alleged illegal funds to Stormy Daniels in exchange for silence about their relationship, and is ready to charge him. Michael Cohen, his former fixer, accused the tycoon of being aware of the payment. Cohen allegedly paid Daniels $130,000 for silence on her relationship with Trump and was then repaid by Trump while he was in the White House
