Former President Donald Trump this summer offered a financial incentive to adult film star Stormy Daniels if she agreed to keep quiet about Trump — including about the relationship that became the center of the hush money payments that ended up as the subject of a New York criminal trial — ahead of the election next month, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow reported Wednesday.
On the podcast, Trump spoke about "fake press" and the difficulties that creates. He continued: "Democrats don't have to be honest. They really don't have to be honest, because they will never be accused of anything."
"I was so amazed that Harvey Weinstein got schlonged," Trump said.
Trump has previously used the term "schlonged" in reference to women in political races, including Hillary Clinton's 2008 primary run and former New York State Assembly member Jane Corwin's House loss.
The former president spoke for more than 10 minutes about Palmer, who was born in Latrobe, at a rally at the local airport named in Palmer's honor.
"He was an incredible man, he was an incredible champion, and he came from Latrobe," Trump said.
Then his comments appeared to go off script.
"This is a guy that was all man," the former president said. "This man was strong and tough, and I refuse to say it, but when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there, they said, 'Oh my God, that's unbelievable.'"
Oh snap!!!!!

Kilmeade: I can absolutely see him go it'd be great to have German generals that actually do what we ask them to do, maybe not fully being cognizant of the third rail of German generals who were Nazis or whatever pic.twitter.com/6lpjH6foEk
