    Following up on where things stand in the Stormy Daniels lawsuit, Cohen and Trump's lawyers are trying to get the case put on hold — https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/trump-and-his-longtime-lawyer-ask-the-court-hearing-stormy?utm_term=.kb3NRePQ5#.wnYr1XNdJ … — arguing that there are Fifth Amendment implications now that we know Cohen is under criminal investigation.

        Daniels, through her lawyer, opposed the request for a stay in a Monday filing, arguing that the lawyers for Cohen didn't explain why a stay is justified, that Cohen has waived such rights, and that Daniels would be prejudiced by a stay: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4440824-Clifford-v-Trump-Clifford-Opposition-to-Stay.html …pic.twitter.com/MWH8Tm4PXS

        So, on that front, the matter has been briefed and we are awaiting a ruling or further action from US District Judge James Otero.

        Chris Geidner Retweeted Donald J. Trump

        Meanwhile, in response to Trump's morning tweet regarding Daniels' claims, @MichaelAvenatti told Wolf Blitzer on Wednesday afternoon that they will "likely" amend their lawsuit "to add a defamation claim against the president."

        So, Cohen can make public statements regarding the case, but not Avenatti? ROLF.

        Trump is hoping that it will all go away if the case with Stormy Daniels is put on hold. He’s buying time to get a loophole in the case to make it disappear. No one has been able to stand up to Trump not even those clowns 🤡 in congress.They’re afraid of him!
