The Art of the Deal

In case you’re wondering where that rate comes from:

Oct. 28, 2016, (date of NDA signing) to Jan. 12, 2018 (date NDA details were disclosed to news media) = 10,608 hours

$130,000 / 10,608 hours ≈ $12.25 / hour

Don't forget that from Daniel's testimony, we learned Trump coerced her under threat of blackballing her in the television industry.

Daniels testified that she thought they would be going to a restaurant, and eventually used the bathroom in Trump's hotel room, but upon re-emerging was surprised to find Trump stripped to his underwear sitting on the bed. Daniels testified she said "I think we should go" and moved toward the door but Trump allegedly stood in her way saying in part, "This is the only way you're getting out of the trailer park." Daniels could not remember how she ended up on the bed, but testified that they had sex in the missionary position and Trump chose not to use a condom. Daniels insisted she was neither forced nor under the influence, but also said it wasn't something she wanted and that she "blacked out".

Blacked out. That's dissociation. It wasn't consensual. her mind protected her the only way it knew how, likely from previous sexual assaults or other abuse.

This is terrible.

What a disturbing image. I imagine the whole damn thing about unconsensual sex and payments can't disturb his fanbase, but the tape of it really would. Uugh.
