Wow, Stormy Daniels attorney on Morning Joe

being a bit coy, but among other things, says Stormy Daniels was physically threatened by the Trump camp.

60 Minutes interview will set the country on its ear. He now says it will likely air on the 25th, not this coming Sunday.

threatened to keep quiet after she signed.

Big difference. You can't be coerced through force or other means to sign a contract. That would make it null and void all by itself. I wonder why they aren't using this to void the agreement? Maybe they are?

Other than trump*, I'm thinking Bannon (or one of his associates), Manafort, Flynn, Miller, Stone. Stone kind of reminds me of a 21st Century G Gordon Liddy.

.... these same assholes were undoubtedly the ones who went after the girl who filed a lawsuit against Sir Oinksalot for raping her when she was 13. Also undoubtedly the ones running around falsely claiming that all the women who accused Trumpfucker of molesting them had been exposed as frauds.

Aaaaand when the Democrats retake Congress and begin impeaching the Orange Asshole they'll also surely be making death threats against anyone who dares to take on the Rapist-in-Chief.

He has a different type of thug for each type of threat he might want to deliver.

Rough lawyer thugs
Bruiser elbow thugs
Business threat thugs —“I’d hate to see your business suffer...”
Political strategy / dirty tricks thugs
Probably even Russian mob thugs

Normally, if someone commits a crime against one of my clients, I suggest that we contact law enforcement in addition to filing a civil suit. Perhaps Avennati's practice is different.

I know - it is easy to assume from the trump folks - but he did not say that. He was very cautious in his response. The threats could have come from over-zealous trump-supporters - that would fit in the context of the MJ exchange.

Remember when Trump was defending Putin and callously said, "America has killed a lot of people too" As if it is just a part of doing business.
Thanks, deplorables
