Stormy Daniels Was Physically Threatened Over Trump Affair, Her Attorney Says

A new shocking claim in the porn star-president scandal: Someone promised to harm her if she spoke about their alleged affair before the election.

If there was one story that didn’t need a fire to be lit under it, it’s the one involving the president, a porn star, and an alleged coverup of an extramarital affair. But that’s exactly what happened Friday morning when the lawyer for Stormy Daniels—the adult-film actress who’s suing Trump in an attempt to dissolve a nondisclosure agreement—claimed she was threatened with physical harm as part of the efforts to keep her quiet.

In an otherwise unremarkable appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, during which typically evasive attorney Michael Avenatti repeatedly plugged Daniels’ upcoming 60 Minutes special which will air later this month, a curveball question from host Mika Brzezinski at the end of the interview led to an explosive claim that Daniels was subject to threats.

Asked directly if Daniels was “threatened in any way” during attempts to keep her quiet, Avenatti replied: “Yes.” Asked further if she was threatened with physical harm, Avenatti again replied: “Yes.” Finally, asked if his client’s life was threatened, the attorney said: “I’m not going to answer that. People will have to tune in to 60 Minutes on March 25.”

Avenatti refused to answer whether or not Trump was personally behind the alleged threats, or whether it was a physical or verbal threat, but repeatedly teased that the special interview with Daniels on CBS will contain incendiary new details of his client’s alleged affair with the president and subsequent attempts to keep it hushed up.
