■ Adultfilm actress Stormy Daniels announced Wednesday that she will provide new details about her alleged affair with President Donald Trump in a forthcoming memoir. Daniels appeared on ABC’s The View to discuss the book and the latest developments in her lawsuits against the president. Stormy Daniels: Full Disclosure is due out Oct. 2. Daniels said the book will highlight her history, experiences and interests outside the Trump maelstrom. But asked how much she had yet to disclose about their alleged affair, she said: “There’s a lot in the book.” “Are you going to give details of that night in the hotel?” View co-host Joy Behar asked, referring to the night in summer 2006 when Daniels says the affair began. “Yes,” Daniels said. Trump denies claims of an affair. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, is facing legal head winds after Trump and his former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, said over the weekend that they would not enforce a 2016 nondisclosure agreement she is suing to invalidate. Daniels attorney Michael Avenatti, who appeared with her on The View, said the move was intended to protect Trump and Cohen from being deposed in the case. Cohen, who pleaded guilty to eight federal charges, said he executed hush-money payments at Trump’s direction to two women in the lead-up to the 2016 election. Trump recently said he had no knowledge of a $130,000 hush-money payment to Daniels until after it happened and denied violating campaign-finance laws.

■ JPMorgan Chase’s Jamie Dimon picked a fight with President Donald Trump — and immediately regretted it. “I think I could beat Trump” in an election, the Wall Street executive said at a Wednesday morning event that was supposed to celebrate his firm’s philanthropy. “I’m as tough as he is, I’m smarter than he is.” But, by noon, the bank sent out a statement from its chairman and chief executive officer backtracking completely: “I should not have said it. I’m not running for president. Proves I wouldn’t make a good politician. I get frustrated because I want all sides to come together to help solve big problems.” Dimon is renowned for speaking bluntly, but he vacillates on Trump. After Trump’s 2017 inauguration, he said Trump had reawakened “animal spirits” in the U.S. as he praised the president’s softer regulation and a tax policy that’s generous to wealthy companies and people.
