In 2016, just weeks before the election, Daniels’ lawyer approached the National Enquirer saying that she was willing to go on the record about the affair. Leaders at the Enquirer—who later said they had a deal with Trump to keep coverage of him positive—put Daniels’ lawyer in touch with Trump’s then-lawyer, Michael Cohen, rather than buying her story.
“Signing the NDA and taking the hush money was actually the greatest gift that I gave. Because it’s what made it illegal, which made it possible to actually go after him,” Daniels added.Once Trump’s former trusted confidante, Michael Cohen was his personal attorney and fixer for over 10 years. The two worked incredibly closely, with Cohen going so far as to proclaim that he would take a bullet for Trump.
Over the years, Cohen’s staunch loyalty to Trump has dissipated and he’s admitted that he knew the things he was doing for the president were wrong; Cohen has called Trump out for racism and fraud.
