  1. It seems like Trump’s team is really trying to control the narrative before the election, but keeping things quiet like that just raises more questions.

    they’re really trying to control the narrative before the election but that just makes it look more suspicious

    Why would he pay her to keep quiet about commenting he said never happened? That seems weird.

  4. Yup because they was soooooooooo successful at silencing her the first time they decide surely it will work a second time especially since she has already testified in a court trial about some really disgusting things he was doing. Yup either she has some reallllllllllll dirt she has not said yet or they are just fucking stupid or both.

  5. He coincidentally offered her almost the same amount she owes for the recent defamation case against her. I think she should just crowd fund that and go out and make as much noise about this as possible.

    Worked very well so far. And rightfully so, she admitted that at the time she fell for him and was very attracted by his charisma. Now wage wants to exploit him because he’s rich and a successful politician.

  7. This is hard to understand … until you remember Trump is a narcissist. He wants his win in 2016 to be down to his political, tactical decisions. And he’s losing now, so he’s trying to make the same ones again. Why did he win in 2016? Because of his personal orders to his team. How can he win again? With the same orders.

  8. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/trumps-legal-team-tried-keep-stormy-daniels-quiet-ahead-2024-election-rcna175828) reduced by 71%. (I’m a bot)

    > Former President Donald Trump this summer offered a financial incentive to adult film star Stormy Daniels if she agreed to keep quiet about Trump – including about the relationship that became the center of the hush money payments that ended up the subject of a New York criminal trial – ahead of this November's election, MSNBC's Rachel Maddow reported on Wednesday.

    > Daniels delivered blockbuster testimony earlier this year about hush money payments she received from Trump ahead of the 2016 election, in which she was paid to remain silent about an affair between the two, a relationship he has denied.

    > In a statement to MSNBC, Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung falsely asserted that the documents Maddow referenced "Were attained as part of an illegal, foreign hacking attack against President Trump and his team.”

    Same crime twice. 

    Can’t even make this shit up. 

    Let’s pummel this motherfucker once and for all. GO VOTE!

  10. What’s odd here is that nobody was talking about Stormy Daniels. Therefore, they know she is ready to drop some information and are attempting to buy her silence.

    If someone has not heard of Stormy Daniel’s at this point, then they are brand new voters, and most of them are not part of the MAGA cult.

    If an adult has heard about Trump paying for sex with Stormy and then paying for her silence and was not bothered by it before, they are highly unlikely to be bothered by it now.

    At this point Trumps character is simply not a deal breaker for them.

  12. Put it on the pile of things that should matter but won’t. His supporters don’t care, undecideds don’t care, the justice system doesn’t care. I genuinely think he could shoot someone on film and it wouldn’t make a difference.

  13. Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes are such amazing reporters. They really have been all-stars this entire election cycle.
