Biggest Bombshells From Stormy Daniels' Interview
Sunday night, adult film star Stormy Daniels sat down with Anderson Cooper on 60 Minutes to discuss her alleged affair with Donald Trump. Daniels says she was paid to keep quiet about her relationship with Trump during the 2016 campaign, but she's breaking her silence now, in spite of threats of financial retribution from Trump's lawyers. Here are the biggest bombshells from her interview.
1. She says a Trump associate threatened her daughter.
Perhaps the biggest bombshell in the interview came when Daniels disclosed that, after she agreed to sell her story to In Touch magazine in 2011 (a story that she says was killed when Trump's attorney Michael Cohen threatened to sue), a man approached her and her daughter in Las Vegas and threatened them.
Not long after the magazine story was killed, Stormy Daniels says she was threatened by a man who approached her in Las Vegas. “A guy walked up on me and said to me, ‘leave Trump alone. Forget the story.’” pic.twitter.com/JMskKQiYCi

"I was in a parking lot, going to a fitness class with my infant daughter. Taking, you know, the seats facing backwards in the backseat, diaper bag, you know, gettin' all the stuff out," she said. "And a guy walked up on me and said to me, 'Leave Trump alone. Forget the story.' And then he leaned around and looked at my daughter and said, "That's a beautiful little girl. It'd be a shame if something happened to her mom.' And then he was gone."
