The porn actress Stormy Daniels, 39, assures that President Donald Trump's entourage physically threatened her in front of her young daughter in a Las Vegas parking lot to "leave him alone." It happened in 2011, when she had given an interview to InTouch magazine in which she recounted an affair with Trump. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, recounted the sexual adventure, with morbid details, this Sunday on television, in a highly anticipated interview. It is the first time that she has spoken in public since she denounced the president and his lawyers, who deny the facts. These are the main excerpts from Stormy Daniels' interview on CBS.
The meeting with Trump
The scene is a celebrity golf tournament at Lake Tahoe (on the California-Nevada border) in 2006. Stormy Daniels says she was introduced to Trump, he invited her to dinner, and they ended up in her room. Trump kept talking about himself and said, "Have you seen my last magazine?", Showing him a publication that featured him on the cover. She said, "Someone should spank you with that magazine." According to the account, Trump froze with the answer and then jokingly actually pulled down his pants and let her whip him with the magazine. “He said to me‘ ‘‘ ‘‘ ‘‘ ‘’ ’’ ’’ s special. You remind me of my daughter ”.
By then, the current first lady, Melania Trump, had just given birth to her son. "I asked for. He pushed the subject aside by saying "ah, yeah, yeah, you know, don't worry about it, we have separate rooms and everything."
Stormy Daniels claims they had sex in the bedroom even though she didn't really want to and she didn't like it. She was 27 and he was 60. He did not use a condom and she did not ask for it.
They met again the following year. Trump had promised that he would try to get her as a contestant on the Celebrity Apprentice show, in which he was the star of her. They met once to discuss the matter. In the hotel room, Trump made her watch a documentary about sharks. She left without anything happening. Ultimately, Trump failed to get her on the show.
Stormy Daniels says she never slept with Trump again.
The threats
In 2011, Daniels received an offer from InTouch magazine to recount her affair with Trump for $ 15,000. The interview was never published, according to two former magazine employees cited by CBS, because they called Trump to ask for her version and his personal attorney, Michael Cohen, threatened to sue them. Daniels says that she was never paid and that she received threats in a Las Vegas parking lot.
“I was in a parking lot, going to fitness class with my little daughter, talking, you know, with the seat back, the diaper bag, taking things out. She was approached by a guy and said, 'Leave Trump alone. Forget the story. ' And then he leaned out and looked at my daughter and said, 'She is a beautiful girl. It would be a shame if something happened to her mother. ' And she left ".
She assures that she would recognize him if she saw him again. Asked why she did not go to the police, she replies: "I was afraid."
The confidentiality agreement
Once in the 2016 election campaign, when Trump had already achieved the Republican nomination, "suddenly people contacted me again to offer me money" in exchange for the story. "Was I tempted? Yes. I had doubts. And then I got the call: "I think I have the best deal for you." She was his lawyer at the time.
The deal was to sign an agreement to take $ 130,000 in exchange for not telling his story. According to Daniels, the appeal of the deal was, apart from the money, that the story would not harm her career and that her daughter, who is old enough to understand the news, would not be exposed to everything that is happening right now. . Asked if she understands that they consider her an opportunist, she says: “I think the fact that she did not even negotiate, that she said yes very quickly to a very strict contract, and for a figure that most agree is very low, it's all the proof I need. "
The consequences for her
In total, Stormy Daniels has denied in writing her affair with Trump three times, in different documents offered by her lawyers. “I felt intimidated, and honestly, harassed. And I did not know what to do. So I signed. Even though he expressly repeated that she was not going to break the contract, but she was not comfortable lying. "
Asked if she has evidence, as her lawyer seems to threaten, she assures that she has been advised not to talk about it for now. How do we know that she is telling the truth? “Because I have no reason to lie. I'm exposing myself to possible danger and, of course, a lot of shit. "
