How? She filed a lawsuit, a judge dismissed it, and awarded attorneys fees. I don't see how this is crazy or funny except for the stupid refund joke that has no basis in reality.

An (alleged) hooker sued the US President who is also Donald Trump.

The only really funny parts of this for me is the use of the phrase the alleged hooker. and my growing suspicion that Stormy Daniels is doing this with a mind to get into politics.

Nah, Avenatti's the one who wants to get into politics. Daniels is just using this to for publicity so she can make more money. Apparently she makes a lot preforming at DC strip clubs. Everyone wants to see the skank who Trump banged.

I'm most amused at the fact that all those people who donated money for Daniels' legal fees are now paying Trump.

So she lost a defamation lawsuit. That isn't really a huge victory for Trump. IIRC, defamation is pretty tough to prove even in the best of cases.

I had no idea that Stormy Daniels was secretly Robert Mueller. Oh wait, she isn't. Trump was claiming Victory against Daniels, whose attorney was owned by Trump's attorney. Granted, Avenatti was also owned by Tucker Carlson, so he's not that difficult to own in a debate. No one, except for you and Iffy, is actually talking about Mueller in this thread, but I do have to wonder: will "but muh Mueller" going to be the new Liberal Battle Cry, replacing "it was Russia's fault!" as a common saying?

Personally, I'd be laughing my ass off if this was Trump as well. People say this shit about Trump all the time. Difference is that he has an actual lawyer, not a creepy porn lawyer :P

You're derailing the thread because you're talking about an off topic issue, the Mueller Issue. You can make jokes about Trump/Daniels, but cheer-leading the derailment regarding the Mueller probe is rather iffy.

Stating an outcome of a legal case is now a Sermon in the Church of The Donald? Damn, is that what the Democrats are renaming SCOTUS once Ginsburg gets replaced?

Cheating isn't funny


So you're challenging the judge's impartiality. That's a little because I don't know that the judge in question was appointed by trump and even if he was Article III judges can really only be removed with impeachment or assassination- they're pretty free from outside influences.

No we've established that the statements in question are better characterized as allowable rhetorical hyperbole. Hence the ruling.
