A federal judge has dismissed porn actress Stormy Daniels' defamation lawsuit against President Donald Trump. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, alleges she had an affair with Trump in 2006. She sued the president in April, after Trump tweeted about a composite sketch of a man Daniels says threatened her in 2011 to keep quiet about an alleged affair. Trump's lawyer, Charles Harder, said it was a "total victory" for the president. Daniels' lawsuit over a hush-money deal is pending.
