Follow The Money, The Stormy Story Cont'd.

While incompetent buffoon Donald "Rump" Trump fiddles and rage-tweets as the Government shutdown enters its first day, more questions are being raised about the money that his lawyer paid to porn actress Stormy Daniels to keep their affair in 2006 secret. Consistent with his shady business practices of setting up limited liability companies (LLCs) to shield money and avoid tax liability and creditors, Rump had his consigliere lawyer Michael Cohen set up an LLC -- "Essential Consultants LLC" --  from which $130,000 was drawn to pay the porn star for her silence, according to no less than Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal (behind a paywall). One major question is, did the funds originate from campaign contributions and were they reported to the Federal Elections Committee? Stay tuned.

In the meantime, last night on Bill Maher's show, author of "Fire and Fury" Michael Wolff suggested that Rump is involved in another adulterous affair right now, although he wouldn't name the individual, hinting that his book has the clues necessary to identify Rump's mistress. Would her name be Windy, or Sunny? Maybe Overcast or Blustery. No wait, that last one's probably Rump's Secret Service code name. Time will tell if there's anything to Wolff's allegation.

Finally, here's the suggested musical accompaniment for any Stormy Story.
