Ms. Hicks, now a communications consultant, testified to her fast rise in the Trump family orbit, going from working for his daughter Ivanka to press secretary for Mr. Trump’s campaign. It was in that role that, in October 2016, she had to confront what she called the “intense” fallout from the revelation of the “Access Hollywood” tape.
Ms. Hicks recalled consulting with Michael D. Cohen, Mr. Trump’s former lawyer and fixer, who eventually paid Ms. Daniels to keep quiet. Mr. Cohen denied the stories, drafting a proposed response calling them “completely untrue,” and Ms. Hicks told The Journal the same thing.
Back in court on Thursday, jurors heard a conversation Mr. Cohen had recorded with Mr. Trump about how to reimburse the publisher of The Enquirer for the purchase of Ms. McDougal’s story.
Hicks was taking the stand under a subpoena to testify for the prosecution. It appears to be the most damaging testimony so far.
Well, I'll tell you the funniest is that I’ll go backstage before a show, and everyone's getting dressed and ready and everything else, and you know, no men are anywhere. And I'm allowed to go in because I'm the owner of the pageant and therefore I'm inspecting it. You know, I'm inspecting, I want to make sure that everything is good.
You know, the dresses. ‘Is everyone okay?’ You know, they're standing there with no clothes. ‘Is everybody okay?’ And you see these incredible looking women, and so, I sort of get away with things like that. But no, I've been very good.
An old man "inspecting" naked girls is what most rational people call ogling. I understand that Trump lies a lot, but you're claiming Trump was not being truthful when he claimed to be inspecting naked girls?
reply share
You know, you are kind of moving the goalpost here, A LOT.
You started out, insisting that TRump has a very, very, very misogyistic view of women, (ie grab em by the pussy, or nasty).
Do I think that as Trump ran his pageants, and "made sure things were good" that he appreciated how good looking some of the girls were?
Sure. Indeed, I kind of hope so. It would be sad if he was so overexposed to it, as part of the job, that he stopped being able to appreciate good looking women.
You talk about Trump "lying".
Let's look at this for likely lies.
Trump clearly, is about image and status. His grandiouse houses, marry models, sleeping with porn stars, becoming PRESIDENT, ect.
You think that he wouldn't play to his audience and exaggerate something that was ... a really minor issue, such as working around naked women, to play to the fantasy of men, that THEY don't get to see behind the scenes, but TRUMP does?
So, no, in this case I don't think he was "LYING", i do think he was not being completely truthful.
But, regardless, nothing about this supports your assertion that he thinks of women as either groupies or nasty.
So, to summarize, you have to support your claim, him mentioning groupies ONCE, behind closed doors, and him mentioning that he worked among a lot of naked girls.
That's a pretty weak base to build an attack.
Of course, unless you don't care about how weak your attack is, you just want to throw shit.
Where did I move the goalposts? Yes, I started out as claiming Trump has a very misogynistic view of women. And there I stayed. I have not altered my opinion of Trump.
I was asking you, if you thought Trump was lying. I did not make a definite claim that Trump was lying in this case.
I attack and I throw shit at Trump. Cry me a river.
Which porn stars has Trump claimed to have slept with?
It's actually not. He claimed to hit on a certain woman aggressively and he said that groupies let you be aggressive ie, "grab them by the pussy".
That's not misogynistic. It's CRUDE, but it makes no comment on women being less than men.
You're repeating some crude comments, and trying to by emotional about them, to create the illusion that they mean something.
BTW, it is also worth noting, that you talk about TRump lying, yet you are taking at face value his words, when he is bragging to younger men about his sexual history.
From my personal experience with men, that is the time to give their words the LEAST credibility.
BUT, these crude comments, are useful to you, so suddenly, you are as trusting as a small child.

Trump clearly, is about image and status. His grandiouse houses, marry models, sleeping with porn stars, becoming PRESIDENT, ect.
You going to support your claim that Trump sleeps with porn stars? Why would this be an image he wants anyway?
Ohhhh, I was wondering how long it might take you to fall back on that old trope that I was trained to attack Trump or others on obscure little forums like this one.
Attacking people I don't like on forums is merely my pleasure. You're welcome.
I don't run in to a lot of people who think I'm a "trained lefty hack". You are the only one who says that of me. A few others here call me a lefty, but I'm not.
Gun grabs are not mainstream, neither is using the Secret Service to line one's pockets like Trump did. Sleeping with porn actresses is mainstream now?
I'm not the one under indictment, that would be Trump, the insane radical rapist and gun grabber.
You are correct. Tearing down the GOP and the 2nd Amendment is a very bad policy for Trump to have.
But unfortunately, most MAGA care more about supporting Trump's anti-gun agenda than their own civil rights.
Most of the Trump supporters I have talked to about Trump's anti-gun agenda deny that it exists, that Trump had to ban bump stocks, the ATF went rogue, Biden did it, or some other stupid BS. Prior to 2018, I never heard any Republican using the typical Democrat anti-gun BS that Trump supporters are using now. Anything to deny that Trump is an anti-gun zealot.
My WA ballot will have many politicians in various elections and other measures on it.
I will not be voting for either Biden or Trump in November.
I will probably vote libertarian.
You're being very evasive. If having Biden in office is suicide, then why is the country still functioning, and in some ways, better than it was while Trump was president?
It doesn't matter if that's his reason for being against Trump. The fact that you don't acknowledge that being a failure on Trump's end is telling of you as a person. If that was Biden who did that you wouldn't let it go. If it's your guys it's perfectly fine. I think it's bullshit no matter if it is Biden's stupid ass or not.
THe left has become the party of national self harm.
So, a relatively minor issue on guns, just doesn't matter, on either side.
If Biden came down on the RIGHT side of this issue, I wouldn't care. Because of the overall evilness and maddness of the left.
Ditto, if Trump is on teh wrong side. I might not like it, but it doesn't matter, becasue Trump might be wrong on this issue, but he is not evil or insane, nor, hates me and is actively working to hurt me and mine.
Basically well yeah but the left is worse. Rather than call out the corruption you justify it by pointing how the left is worse in your eyes. Rather pathetic way to look at things. That makes your credibility take a huge hit.
So how about I point out how the right is worse anytime you point out flaws of the left? Same logic right? Would you accept that?
2. Which is it? Do you not believe that this is the way I look at things, or do you think it is pathetic that I look at things this way? YOu dont' get to have both, you stupid fag.
1. Fucking moron, how the fuck do you figure that.
2. So, if you don't believe me when I say that that is how I view it, and operate, then why did you call me pathetic for seeing things that way and operating that way?
Seems that you are quite the shit talker.
1. Because no one could possibly disagree with you? Ok. I believe that you are that fucking stupid.
2. But you did both. YOu posted one answer and then IMMEDIATELY posted as though you believed the other. And you still don't see, CAN'T see the problem.
Funny then why don't you grant people this liberty who disagree with you? The minute you find out some is liberal you say they are evil. How about immigration? Anybody who disagreed with you, you consider evil. Fuck off.
Either way we go with you are full of shit. That's the point I was making.
1. No, when someone reveals themselves to be soulless trolls, is when I say that they are evil. That so many lefards devolve into trolls, is a you problem. YOu plural, before you even start playing retard.
2. Nope. You said nothing like that. YOu stated BOTH, contradictory ideas with complete certainty. Such lack of rational thinking, is common with lefties.
Anyone that thinks I am being harsh, can scroll up and check it out themselves.
Yes you do you lying piece of filth! Within a couple exchanges on here you threw out an insult about liberals. In true 14 year old fashion you immediately jump to the oh so eloquent word leftard. I have you on record insulting first. Don't bullshit us it destroys your credibility even more. Not that you had any to begin with.
Says the guy who claimed assuming and questioning were the same. That's rich!
2. In that context, they were. YOu had, and are still having a hissy fit over semantics to avoid any real issues. Becasue on some level, you know that you are on the wrong side and that rhetorical games (the more dishonest the better) is your only hope of presenting the APPEARENCE of making a valid argument for your position.
2. Yes, they were. I was describing a varied group with a spectrum of questioning/assuming about certain black assholes. YOu latched on to normal word usage to have a hissy fit, so as to do the woke tactic of using manufactured outrage as an argument. Classic leftard bullshit.
Yep you are on record doing it. Also telling people to kill themselves. You doing that immediately removed your right to preach about religion. No true Christian would pull that. And no it's not brave or courageous. To wish that is cowardly.
Nope they were not the same. The meaning of questioning and assuming are completely different. Look up the definition and get back to me dumbass. Please graduate from middle school you reject moron. Conservatives have been shown on studies that they can't think properly. I think it's a disease.
2. I like the way that you are pretending to be too stupid to understand the context of the issue. I don't think you are as stupid as you pretend to be. But, you are certainly not nearly as clever as you think you are.
All you really have, is a lack of shame, to keep up your shit talk, even when it is clear that I am not being fooled.
1. I predict that the link will NOT show what you claim it will show, but that you will just insist that it does and hold to your lie like the shameless, soulless troll boi that you are.
2. We were discussing a group of people with a spectrum of varying hostility to certain black assholes.
You lost the debate, your position on the issue revealed you to be a racist asshole, so you manufactured a... hissy fit over a minor issue of wording.
1. I take you're looking? FInding time after time that I didn't call someone a name until they earned it? Your plan is to not mention all those times, and keep looking till you find one where it looks like I went hard FIRST?
2. In that case it did. And you know it. YOu are just having a hissy fit, like a hysterical woman, to avoid admitting it.
During that exchange you insulted first. This is where you will deny insulting me and attempt to bullshit your way out of it. Conservatives have a hard time being honest.
Nope even in that context it isn't the same. You got caught lying. Get educated you degenerate piece of trash.
"INsulted first"? Classic troll boi move. YOu try to pretend that since you didn't overtly insult me, that my insult was "first" and thus I am the "bad guy".
But, you claimed that I insulted people, just because they disagreed with me, or hte moment I learned that they were liberal.
THat is clearly not the case here. We have quite a number of back and forth posts where it is clear that you are a leftard who is disagreeing with me.
and to further drive the point home, in my "first insult", I fully explain your asshole behavior that earned you the insult.
And here it is.
"Thus, the two situations are completely different. That is why I judge them differently.
Your dismissing my already explained reasoning and just asserting that it was partisan bias, was kind of a dick move on your part."
And I was right, it was a dick move on your part, thus, making you a dick.
And instead of having teh balls to admit that you failed to support your claim, you must make another claim.
That is asshole behavior. A good man would admit that he could not find an example of my insulting someone just because they "disagreed" with me, or I found out they are a liberal.
Which was what you initially claimed.
But, you're not a good man. YOU are the asshole here.
1. Irrelevant. You failed to support your claim but you are too much of a pussy to admit that.
2. You earned that insult. THe way that you expect to behave like a complete cunt and be treated with a civility you don't deserve? That is you not understanding how to be a good person.
3. I didn't insult you because you called me partisan. I explained at the time why I insulted you. Try to be a bit less fucking stupid.
No I didn't. You justified telling someone to kill themselves. You can't be trusted. Which shows you will justify anything that you can here.
Bullshit. You telling someone to kill themselves is violating the sites rules. Typical though conservatives don't typically read over the fine print of anything. Conservatives tend to be less intelligent on average.
1. Which was NOT what you accused me of. BUt you don't have the balls to admit that. Pussy.
2. Yes, you did earn that insult. YOu behaved like a complete asshole. The other poster also earned his insults. Your desire for yourself and people like you, to be complete assholes while getting treated with respect, is a serious personality flaw.
3. I didn't insult you because you called me partisan. I explained at the time why I insulted you. Try to be a bit less fucking stupid.
It was actually. You then moved the goal post. You said you earned that insult. So yeah you did insult first.
Nope telling someone to kill themselves even if they are an asshole is not warranted. I don't ever want to hear you preach about God after pulling that stunt. I've never told anyone to kill themselves. I'm not trash like you are. You also threatened to get in my face if we met. Which is illegal. And trust me that's a mistake you would learn from if you pulled that move.
Yeah you did. You lying piece of filth. Conservatives need to seek help it's seriously concerning the moves you guys pull. First the January 6th riot, sandy hook hoax, litter boxes in classrooms hoax, supporting the drug war etc. All disgusting behavior which you are guilty of.
And you do. Want me to provide that link also? Ok so I didn't specifically provide you insulting liberals. So in that case you get a small victory. However I can provide you insulting liberals from the jump want that link?
No you need to be out in your place scumbag. Have the balls to admit when you are wrong. I can as seen above. I misspoke you happy?
You've done enough. I would not ask you to waste any more of your time,
after all, you will just lie about what the link shows anyways.
I don't care about a mispeaking. I'm not even sure what you are talking about. And I don't care.
What I care about is that you set one goal, and when you discovered that you could not support that, instead of admitting you were wrong, you moved the goal posts.
I don't have the brittle...mind armor against any new information that you lefties do, so, it's not traumatic for me. I vaguely recall admitting it, adjusting my view of hte situation and moving on.
No more stuff about lefties. I can lob insults at conservatives as well. You do have Alex Jones a serious scumbag. Should I lump you with him? Are all conservatives smart people?
Yes you are. And yes you guys do. Want me to start peeling the onion for you? Let's start off with Alex Jones. What he did was rather disturbing and scary. He represents your party.
Yeah he does, he is part of your group. You guys are a collective group. You are all guilty by association. He said Sandy Hook was a hoax and when asked to provide evidence didn't do so. Sounds familiar to me. Sounds like another person who wants people not to questions their claims.
Oh yeah you are. Any group who listens to Alex Jones is exactly that.
No I call out the lefts side. Rioting is wrong as Biden is a corrupt piece of shit. Thing is I'm not willing to look the other way on conservatives corruption where as you are.
Remember how certain you were that I insulted people just for disagreeing with me, and/or when I found out that they were liberals?
Remember how many times I told you that that was not true and you were completely certain that I was lying, and you wouldn't hear or consider for a second any words that contradicted what you were so certain about?
And then you went looking for proof, and found out that everything I said in that instance was completely correct?
Here is what a human being would learn from that.
1. YOU need to be less certain, especially when it comes to judging people you hate. Because you suck at it.
Oh no I can still provide that actually. Remember when I said would you like that link and you said I don't care? So let me ask again would you like that link? I do in fact have you on record saying partisan zealot with someone debating you the moment they disagreed. https://moviechat.org/bd0000082/Politics/608b4d6db7f9bb01c6056b90/64-GDP-Thanks-Biden?reply=608c375cf94f4c712cadebd8
You deny saying partisan zealot here and I won't provide another link. You insulted first.
I'm certain you have insulted people for disagreeing with you. I have you on record telling someone to kill themselves also. Do you deny that?
No you are a lying piece of shit who deserves negativity in your life.
The strategy that the four or five enforcers (probably fewer due to sock accounts) on here use is so utterly predictable.
It's not based on actually refuting accusations. It's based on the assumption of equity of esteem. So what if the allegations are even true? The psychology is that "If we're capable of doing something like this, then just imagine what the enemy must have done that you just don't know about and we can't tell you because we've no evidence. But must assume that it's true, for balance." And since they have no intention or ability to provide any evidence to accuse the other side with, it's the fact that it's being brought up at all that's attacked. "It's not fair to even make the allegation if we don't get to make similar counter allegations." It's like they think they are entitled to affirmative action due to being at a disadvantage of others knowing they are crooks. It really is a the sense of persecution of a disobedient child we're witnessing here.
THat's nice. I personally hope that my vote will matter. Biden and teh batshit crazy dems need to be stopped.
Trump is a step in that direction. He will appoint judges that have some respect for the constitution, instead of the commie scum that Biden will put in appoint.
I would hypothetically vote for Trump in whatever copium wet dream hypothetical scenario you wish to conjure up sweetheart.
If, hypothetically, you told me that the Count on Sesame street secretly used a calculator, or he was being fed the numbers by an off screen puppeteer, I would send hypothetical donations and campaign door to door for Trump.
Feel better, petal? A fucking yes or a fucking no will do.
How can most people be the same if the country is real divided.
Stop just regurgitating lame talking points.
I'm not American. I'm not in the USA. I will be sending ten dozen mail votes for Donald's opponent to the special collection point in Disney HQ before Bob Iger hand delivers them in fake ballot boxes once the count has started.
