- David Schwartz, the attorney representing Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s longtime personal attorney, suggested that Trump wasn’t involved in the alleged nondisclosure agreement with porn star Stormy Daniels.
- Schwartz also deflected the suggestion that the agreement had “some sort of sexual nature.”
- A formal federal prosecutor argued Schwartz’s assertion would mean “there was no contract between Trump and Daniels,” and that she would not be required to keep silent about her alleged affair with Trump.
The attorney representing Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s longtime personal attorney, made an admission that could have resounding implications for the ongoing legal fight with porn actress Stormy Daniels.
On Wednesday, Cohen’s attorney, David Schwartz, suggested that Trump was not aware of the nondisclosure agreement that Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, signed in October 2016. The agreement was meant to prevent Clifford from commenting on her alleged affair with Trump, in exchange for a $ 130,000 payment.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
