'Time to buckle up': Stormy Daniels prepares for ugly fight after Trump misses deadline to lift gag

'Time to buckle up': Stormy Daniels prepares for ugly fight after Trump misses deadline to lift gag order
David Edwards 13 MAR 2018 AT 13:12 ET

President Donald Trump and his lawyer, Michael Cohen, on Tuesday missed a deadline that could have nullified a hush agreement on adult film star Stephanie Clifford, who goes by the stage name Stormy Daniels.

Through her attorney, Michael Avenatti, Clifford on Monday offered to return $130,000 in hush money to Cohen if he would declare the contract “null and void.” Voiding the contract would allow Clifford to speak about an alleged affair with Trump.

But Avenatti revealed in a tweet on Tuesday, that Trump and Cohen had missed the deadline to revoke the contract.

And although Avenatti did not offer specifics, he hinted that legal action was coming.

“Time to buckle up,” Clifford’s attorney wrote.

I think it's a mistake to trifle with this woman because you will be sorry. She is very well represented by Mr. Avenatti. Time to press on.

Her life is all out there, public knowledge. Not too many people can make that claim.

and someone ponied up the $130k to pay trump back. She likely doesn't that much in liquid assets.

Plus her lawyers aren't cheap.

She is getting help I suspect.

make it plain how deformed republican family values actually are. Dirty Donnie is THE role model for generations of little republican princelings & princesslings. Some soul ugly twisted shit going down with republican "values" cultists.
