Stormy Daniels is not a victim

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s criminal case against Donald Trump is technically about whether the former president illegally falsified business records, but you wouldn’t know it based on much of the media coverage of the trial.

And although Bragg has failed to identify who Trump supposedly defrauded when he recorded payments to former fixer-turned-foe Michael Cohen as services paid rather than a reimbursement, there’s one person who is decidedly not the loser in this unsavory deal: Stormy Daniels, the porn star who allegedly received a six-figure payment from Cohen to remain silent over a one-night stand with Trump nearly 20 years ago.
