Is The Media After President Trump?

   In January there was so called incident that involves President Trump and an adult actress Stephanie Clifford. CNN media told that Trump had a sexual relationship with her probably before the 2016 Election. It also stated that there was hush money involved when 130k sent to Sephine Clifford to keep quiet from Donald Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen. After reading this article, it would probably bring a crazy change of heart for some voters to run for president after hearing about what he has done if it was real it also said he could have done it before he was married to his first lady Melania Trump.  However, these ideas were rumors, and it brings up the sense that what if this was true would he would have won the election? Stephanie confirmed this story in a statement she gave "When I met Donald Trump, he was gracious, professional and a complete gentleman to me and EVERYONE in my presence. Rumors that I have received hush money from Donald Trump are completely false. If indeed I did have a relationship with Donald Trump, trust me, you wouldn't be reading about in the news, you would be reading about it in my book. But the fact of the matter is, these stories are not true". So why would the media have a story like this with so little evidence and everybody is denying it and giving no leads to anything. Do you think that the real backstory for putting this up was to expose Donald Trump or as a warning that they'll watch his every move? To me is how so many people are watching you when your in a high place of power and anything mistake you think people don't know they'are always watching waiting for you to slip up like in crucial moments like the 2016 Election.
