Porn star’s action over Trump tweet

The porn star Stormy Daniels yesterday filed a defamation lawsuit against Donald Trump over a recent tweet that she said falsely attacked her truthfulness.

The tweet concerned a sketch of a man that Daniels said had threatened her in 2011. It included the words “a total con job, playing the Fake News Media for Fools (but they know it)!”. The filing says the tweet was “false and defamatory”.
