Adult-film star reportedly spoke to journalist in 2016 about Trump settlement, fearing he wouldn’t pay up

An adult-film star who was reportedly paid to remain silent about a sexual relationship with Donald Trump a decade before he became president spoke to a journalist because she feared he would not pay up, according to a new account.

Stephanie Clifford, whose professional name is Stormy Daniels, spoke to the online magazine Slate multiple times in 2016 before breaking off contact a week before the election, Jacob Weisberg, chairman and editor in chief of the Slate Group, wrote in an article published Tuesday.

In the story, Clifford is described as having “worked out an agreement for the presidential candidate to pay her a six-figure sum to keep quiet.” This document would have shielded the names of the parties involved, the Slate article added.

“Daniels said she was talking to me and sharing these details because Trump was stalling on finalizing the confidentiality agreement and paying her,” Weisberg wrote. “Given her experience with Trump, she suspected he would stall her until after the election, and then refuse to sign or pay up.”

1. She was very worried that Trump wanted to stiff her.

3. I doubt she was ever stiffed by Trump. Beat with a flacid noodle*, perhaps. *(#10 elbow)

2. a six figure sum should have been $999,000 instead of $130,000..

..no way would I have settled for that amount!
