Gag! Prez bid to KO Stormy ‘60 Mins.’ talk

- Terence Cullen

LAWYERS TIED to President Trump reportedly want to put the kibosh on a yet-to-be-aired interview porn star Stormy Daniels gave to “60 Minutes.”

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, sat down with Anderson Cooper days after filing a lawsuit to exit her “hush agreement” to not discuss her fling with Trump more than a decade ago.

“We understand from wellplaced sources they are preparing to file for a legal injunction to prevent it from airing,” an unnamed source told BuzzFeed News.

There was no further informatio­n on the legal strategy, or on how the lawyers are associated with Trump.

A CBS News spokesman declined to comment about the report.

A BuzzFeed reporter later tweeted the interview will air March 18.

The news comes less than a week after Daniels filed a lawsuit against the President in Los Angeles court, arguing her 2016 agreement was null and void because Trump — using the pseudonym David Dennison — didn’t sign the pact.

Michael Avenatti, Daniels’ lawyer, was unhappy about the possible injunction, telling The News in an email “the attempted coverup evidently continues unabated.

“Basta,” he continued, which means “enough” in Italian and Spanish.
