Adult film star Stormy Daniels is refusing to pay Donald Trump’s legal bills after she lost an appeal in a defamation lawsuit against the former president.
“I will go to jail before I pay a penny,” Daniels vowed on Twitter.
Trump on Monday released a statement celebrating what he called a win in the defamation case between him and the adult-film star and suggested that because he won this defamation case, it means that he never had an affair, to begin with.
“As I have stated many times throughout the years, I never had an affair with Stormy Daniels, nor would I ever have wanted to. The ruling was a total and complete victory and vindication for, and of me,” said.
But Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, took issue with the statement saying that he did have an affair with Daniels.
“The defeated former guys’ statement has absolutely nothing to do with the well-established fact that he did have an affair with Stormy Daniels,” Cohen tweeted. “It’s not even what the case is about. Either he’s lying again or didn’t read his own lawsuit…or both!”
