Donald Trump paid adult movie star $130,000 to stay quite over alleged affair: American media
Washington : The US President Donald Trump allegedly paid an adult movie star a whopping sum of 130,000 dollars to stay quite over his alleged affair with her, said a media report.
Trump's lawyer straight away rejected the claims and said his client was not in relationship with the adult movie star 12 years ago.
The Wall Street Journal on Friday reported that longtime Trump Organization attorney Michael Cohen oversaw the payment in the final days of the 2016 presidential election.
Cohen did not say anything over the claims made in the report, but denied any kind of sexual encounter with the lady.
Cohen also showed the journal an email, apparently signed by “Stormy Daniels,” that reportedly read: “Rumors that I have received hush money from Donald Trump are completely false.”
The journal reported the news by quoting people closely related in the matter and did not claim to have seen any documents substantiating the agreement.

The Trump campaign denied any affair and American Media Inc, which owns the Enquirer, said: “AMI has not paid people to kill damaging stories about Mr Trump.”
