Hoo boy.[A Stormy Daniels] filing Wednesday alleges that Trump attorney Michael Cohen "hatched a plan" and "colluded" with the adult film actress' lawyer, Keith Davidson, to get her to go on Fox News in January and falsely deny she had an affair with Trump more than a decade ago.
[...]
The lawsuit against Davidson and Cohen also claims that Trump was aware the two attorneys were communicating and coordinating for his benefit — unbeknownst to Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford.
The suit further accuses Davidson of breaking client confidentiality and tipping off Cohen that Clifford was about to switch to a new lawyer and announce in court papers that she'd had sex with Trump and signed a $130,000 agreement to keep quiet about it just before the 2016 election
"Mr. Davidson abdicated his role as an advocate and fiduciary of his client Ms. Clifford and instead elected to be a puppet for Mr. Cohen and Mr. Trump in order to advance their interests at the expense of Ms. Clifford," the suit says.
[...]
Attached to the lawsuits are text messages exchanged between Cohen and Davidson on Jan. 17, 2018.
[...]
"I have her tentatively scheduled for Hannity tonight," Cohen allegedly texted Davidson, referring to the Fox News program helmed by Trump ally Sean Hannity.
Davidson, according to the suit, responded that "she cannot don't [sic] today. She is flying to LA tomorrow. I'm trying to get her to commit for tomorrow."
[...]
"By doing tomorrow you just create another news cycle instead of putting an end to this one," [Cohen responded].
Later that evening, another text from Cohen to Davidson said: "The wise men all believe the story is dying and don't think it's smart for her to do any interviews."
Davidson replied "100%." Cohen's response: "Thanks pal."

You know he did. He talks to Hannity every night about what Hannity will air. Or he did back then.The complaint alleges that "wise men" was a reference that included Trump and alleges that Trump knew of the plan to get her to appear on Hannity's show and deny a prior sexual relationship with Trump, although the lawsuit included no documentation of that.
Take 'em all down, Stormy.The suit references a new series of text messages between the lawyers on March 2 to arrange a phone call.
"U calling?" Davidson texted.
"With flotus. Give me a minute," Cohen replied.
Press reports from that date indicate both Cohen and Melania Trump were at Mar-a-Lago. The suit claims that Cohen was there to meet with the first lady and prepare her for news of the lawsuit but does not include substantiation.

In a lawsuit filed in mid-March, former Playboy playmate Karen McDougal accused Cohen and Davidson, in coordination with publisher AMI, of "colluding" to bury her story of what she says was an affair with Mr. Trump.
The two lawyers also were involved in a nondisclosure agreement and $1.6 million payment for Sheara Bechard, a Playboy Playmate represented by Davidson, who said she had an affair with Republican National Committee official Elliott Broidy.
This is also not the first time Davidson has been sued. Several high-profile figures, including professional wrestler Hulk Hogan, have accused him of extortion for trying to negotiate settlements to make misconduct allegations or sex tapes go away.
I have a feeling that Avenatti is stretching these filings out in order to keep this story on the front burner and the heat turned up high under Old Lardass' gigantic ass.
