Trump’s team making up facts: Stormy’s attorney
Washington, May 7: Adult film star Stormy Daniels' attorney has alleged that President Donald Trump and his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani have lost track of the truth and are “making up” facts.
Michael Avenatti who represents Daniels claims that she had an intimate relationship with Trump, years before he was elected as the president.
And days before the 2016 presidential election, she said she received USD 130,000 from Trump's then personal attorney Michael Cohen to not go public about her relationship with the president.
In the last few days, Trump has acknowledged that he reimbursed Cohen for the USD 130,000 he paid to Daniels.
Avenatti said there is ample evidence to prove that Cohen approached Daniels before the election to keep her mouth shut.
The money being given to Daniels was part of the campaign finance, he asserted, which has been denied by Giuliani who is now the personal attorney for Trump.
“There is significant amount of evidence, there is no question that this had everything to do with the campaign. In fact, if you go back and replay that interview, and that will be done I'm confident, and if you look at the answers, you're going to find an inconsistency with what Rudy Giuliani just told you,” Avenatti was quoted as saying by ABC News yesterday.
