President Donald Trumps former personal lawyer and longtime fixer has many regrets and one of the biggest is lying to First Lady Melania Trump about her husbands alleged 2006 affair with adult film star Stormy Daniels.
He [Trump] asked me to pay off an adult film star with whom he had an affair, and to lie to his wife about it, which I did, Michael Cohen said Wednesday during testimony before the House Oversight Committee.
Lying to the First Lady is one of my biggest regrets, Cohen continued. She is a kind, good person. I respect her greatly and she did not deserve that.
Along with his testimony, Cohen produced what he said was a copy of the $130,000 wire transfer he sent from his own home equity line of credit during the closing days of the presidential campaign to keep Daniels quiet about her affair allegations. (Trump has been accused of infidelity or sexual misconduct by more than a dozen women and he has vigorously denied all their claims.)

Affair? I thought it was a one time roll in the hay. Not that it makes it any less hurtful.

I don't know how anyone could watch this clip and then say anything nice about her.

(5,914 posts)They wouldn't care if their wealthy husbands were banging half the dancers at Shooters. It only becomes inconvenient to them when the other ladies in the Junior League find out about it.

(9,350 posts)Does anyone believe Melania Trump did not know about Stormy Daniels and other women? I am pretty certain she knew the man she was marrying. Also, wasn't she dating Trump while he was still married to Marla Maples? They were separated, but still married.

(3,335 posts)Trump, Melania, and their son Baron all have their own separate living quarters which are the top 3 floors of Trump Tower, and the floors are huge. Melania had her own living and sleeping quarters and Trump had his. He never came to her floor, and she never went to his floor, which is what allowed him to carry on his 'secret' affairs with all those women. He knew his own floor would be private and didn't have to worry about anyone 'catching' them coming or going. I have seen Trump show off his residence on TV shows and in magazine layouts. I would describe Trump's design taste in Trump Towers as "grossly tacky". It was also reported that one of his high profile affairs occured when Melania was pregnant with Baron. The man has never had any scruples and the women he dated/married knew what they were getting into. The money and fame obviously meant more to them than fidelity, until it was them being the one kicked to the curb.
