Trump, through his lawyer, has totally denied any relationship with Daniels. We know that Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, paid Daniels $130,000 before the election out of a shell corporation in Delaware. (Cohen said that Trump knew nothing about the payment and that he made it out of his personal funds.) In short, there's a lot of smoke around the Daniels-Donald relationship even if there is no proof of fire. And Daniels' lawsuit sheds even more light on their alleged relationship.
