Trump's Lawyer Personally Paid to Silence Ex-Porn Star About Encounter with Trump
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

President Trump's longtime personal lawyer Michael Cohen says he
personally paid $130,000 to former porn star Stephanie Clifford, better
known as Stormy Daniels, several weeks before Trump's election to keep
her from going public about her 2006 sexual encounter with Donald Trump.
Cohen says he was never reimbursed for the payment to silence Daniels.
