22. Trump wouldn't care if adultery came out. He's being blackmailed over shady money dealings.

I suspect if you went over his business records you'd find all kinds of crimes. Laundering, bribery,illegal sales, lying to financial institutions. . . things that are felonies. The only thing he loves is money and he has cut lots of corners.

You think Melania didn't know he was a hound dog when she married him? Or that he cares if she leaves him? He doesn't love her, only himself.

He has done stuff far worse than sleeping with a porn star and his supporters, including the GOP and evangelicals, could give a shit. And they wouldn't care if it came out he laundered money or engaged in other illegal financial dealings but prosecutors would.

Maybe he's an arms dealer or a drug dealer. If anyone is involved in human trafficking, its Trump. Maybe out of a pizza parlor?
