Donald Trump and the porn star

I don't know if porn star Jessica Drake is telling the truth when she says that she declined Trump's offer of $10,000 for a single night's entertainment. (See also here.) Given Trump's recent lawsuit threats, and given the lack of any obvious benefit to Drake for concocting a story, I tend to suspect that she's telling the truth.

But I don't know. It's quite possible that her accusation is some sort of publicity stunt. 

I'm certain of this much: If her story is an exercise in fiction, it's a very witty one. Think of it: A professional sex worker (and yes, I think it is fair to use those words to describe Drake) who finds Donald Trump so repulsive that she turns down $10,000 to spend the night with him. We're talking about a woman who has worked with Ron Jeremy.

Yes to Ron but no to Don. That's gotta be the ultimate indignity. 

Normally, I would say that Drake is out of line to reveal such things. She's a pro, and a pro should be discreet. But fair is fair: After Trump tried to sleaze his way into office by publicizing even the least believable of the Bill Clinton accusers, he invited retaliation in kind.

Marv has a great line in Sin City: "I love hit men. No matter what you do to them, you don't feel bad." 

It's hard to feel bad about Donald Trump's current humiliations. This is the guy who called Hillary a drug user, a crook and a racist, not to mention those nonsensical stories about her health.

Karma's a bitch. If Trump had run a more normal campaign, he'd probably be winning.

Who would pay Trump the most: Republican leaders, to withdraw; Democratic leaders, to stand down his army after the result; or the ~KGB, to stay in the contest and start a rebellion?

And true to icky form Donald made disparaging remarks about how she should be used to being touched, given her profession. Still clueless on consent.

I would not necessarily say clueless but rather adamantly opposed to the very concept that a woman should have any right to her own bodily integrity for any purpose. And clueless besides.

True, that, CK. Willfully clueless.
