Trump's New Hush Money Deal with Daniels Alleged

Donald Trump has reportedly attempted a new hush money deal with Stormy Daniels, offering to reduce the legal fees she owes him in exchange for her silence on any past interactions, with the aim of preventing her from making any defamatory remarks ahead of the 2024 presidential election. Trump is currently awaiting sentencing on 34 felony counts related to previous hush money payments made to Daniels in 2016. Rachel Maddow of MSNBC uncovered this alleged new offer, revealing emails and calls suggesting Trump's legal team proposed to settle Daniels' debt for a smaller amount if she agreed to a non-disclosure agreement. Daniels, who was initially ordered to pay over $600,000 due to a failed defamation lawsuit against Trump, reportedly refused the new deal and paid $627,500 without signing any NDA. Maddow's report highlights a pattern of Trump attempting to suppress information that could affect his political ambitions. The Trump campaign has denied the allegations, labeling the documents as part of an illegal hack.
