Don King talks to Trump about Stormy Daniels: 'It's utterly ridiculous'

BY AVERY ANAPOL - 03/31/18 04:10 PM EDT

Boxing promoter Don King reportedly dined with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago this week, where he told the president that the Stormy Daniels story is “utterly ridiculous.”

The White House has not yet confirmed to pool reporters that King joined his longtime friend Trump for dinner, but The Washington Post reported that King joined the Trump family, including first lady Melania Trump, at the Palm Beach, Fla., resort on Thursday evening.

King told the newspaper that he complained to Trump about the media coverage of Daniels's claims that she had an affair with Trump in 2006, which have been at the center of political coverage in recent weeks.

“The top story, number one, is Stormy Daniels,” King told the Post. “I told [Trump] it’s utterly ridiculous. I just came back from Hamburg, Germany, and they were just laughing at us.”

“If he denies it happened, that’s what it is,” King told the Post.

“Who cares what he does with some lady?” he added.

I heard about it at every family gathering which included right wingers for DECADES.

Not so much now, tho. Much to my relief...

Thanks for coming to my rescue, Weather Lady! :salute:

I bet the fundies love King, too. After all, he only stomped one man to death.

Won't matter, right?

“Who cares what Melania does with some man?” I added ...

Of course, Melania giving Donald herpes from having unprotected sex with porn stars won't matter either, right?

Right wing heads would explode if she did that.

Double standard is still going strong
