Stormy Daniels thanks Michael Cohen for his "courage, at long last"

<snip>
Daniels responded to Cohen’s testimony on Wednesday with a statement of her own, saying that she’s proud of Cohen for telling the truth and feels for him and his family.
“You spoke about how the president and his attorney put you and your family in danger by calling you a liar and a rat and disparaging you in public,” Daniels said in the statement.
“I understand your fear, Michael. I have family too,” she said. “Do you believe now that when you and the president called me a liar, when you were his attorney and you insulted me, threatened to bankrupt me and worse, that you put me and my family in danger?”
“I remember the fear,” Daniels continued. “I still feel it. Thank you for having the courage, at long last, to begin to tell the truth. I hope that someday soon your family and mine can both leave this nightmare behind.”

I do not forgive and forget as easily. I prefer getting even if possible (it rarely is).

I just know that if I were in her shoes I wouldn't be as nice as she is and I have been told by my students that I am very nice and fair teacher. Of course they never did to me what Cohen did to Stormy though.
