On March 25, “60 Minutes” aired an interview with Stormy Daniels, the porn star that was paid by President Trump’s attorney to stay silent about an alleged relationship prior to the 2016 election. The stipend? A generous $130,000. Anderson Cooper asked the porn star questions related to the affair, and Daniels told her story of what happened.
Although the public didn’t get any more information than the information that has already been coming out for the past few months, we did get Daniels’ point of view on the whole story.
But what is curious is how casual this is being discussed. The president of the United States having an affair with a porn star? In my opinion, this is jaw-dropping and disgusting. The laughability of this alleged fair is unprofessional and embarrassing to the U.S. as a country. But if it is going to be any president, it’s going to be Trump. This is minor compared to the amount of controversy he has stirred up ever since he announced he was running.
But what would happen if this happened during Obama’s terms? Let’s pretend Obama was re-elected for an impossible third run at U.S. presidency. But instead of Trump’s lawyer silencing Daniels, it was Obama’s. Here are 10 things that would occur.
1. The Statue of Liberty would crumble.
France is going to be pissed.
2. We would welcome Michelle to Office.
Yes, she would skip Biden.
3. WW3 would commence.
This might just be the last straw for North Korea. The only thing to do would be to start a nuclear war. Looks like Dennis Rodman won't be able to talk Kim Jong Un out of it this time.
4. #MeToo movement would have started before 2017.
Perhaps one positive could come out of this.
5. College would be free.
The Department of Education wouldn’t know what to do, so... free college for all?
6. Trump wouldn’t become president.
No one would risk something like this happening again. Another potential advantage to this hypothetical.
7. The San Andreas fault would rupture.
Sorry, California.
8. All puppies would die.
Yes, it would be that devastating.9. Pluto would become a planet again.
10. Stephen Hawking would still be alive.
To show that there is still humanity on this earth.
Why is it an impossible and ridiculous thought that this would happen under Obama’s presidency, but it’s not shocking under Trump's? If that doesn’t say something about this administration, I don't know what does.
