AMI, the parent corporation of the Enquirer, vowed to fight Karen McDougal in court after her request to be freed from her Non Disclosure Agreement. After the Michael Cohen office raid, they seem to have had a change of heart. McDougal's rights to tell her story were restored. So why the change of heart? Some people are speculating that the raid on Cohen's office might have made the AMI continuing lawsuit agent McDougal look very bad.
In August 2016, the tabloid's parent company, American Media Inc., paid McDougal $150,000 for the rights to her story about the alleged relationship, but the story never ran.
Last month, McDougal filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles asking to invalidate the contract. The suit alleged Trump's attorney, Michael Cohen, was secretly involved in her discussions with AMI executives.
Federal agents raided Cohen's office and residence last week seeking any information on payments made in 2016 to McDougal and porn actress Stormy Daniels, according to people familiar with the investigation but not authorized to discuss it publicly. Daniels has said she had a sexual encounter with Trump in 2006. The search warrants also sought bank records, records on Cohen's dealings in the taxi industry and his communications with the Trump campaign, the people
So why did AMI drop their opposition to McDougal's suit? Honestly we don't know, but it is fun to read the tea leaves and do a little prognostication...

Will Cohen flip? You hear different opinions. Cohen has said he would take bullet for Trump, but ultimately the question becomes how many years of his life is he willing to give to Trump. Two years? Perhaps. Ten or Fifteen years? Probably not.

Stormy seems to present it as if she just wants people to believe her, but does anyone doubt her? I think everyone agrees it happened.
Um no. Virtually every Trumper on Facebook I've seen denies it ever happened. This is a huge Liberal conspiracy because Hannity tells them so. I mean, does he look like a guy who needs to pay for sex?

Do you agree that Trump has sex with her?
my opinion is irrelevant as is the determination of them having sex or not having sex.
