Stephanie Clifford aka Stormy Daniels sued President Trump for defamation. So why does SHE have to pay for his attorneys’ fees? We’ll find out why today! It involves one of my favorite favorite laws: the Anti-SLAPP.

Ties: https://fave.co/2ImLY9I

Pocket Squares: https://amzn.to/2UfsKtL
▶ Why Indochino Suits? (50% off Premium Suits + free shipping) [https://legaleagle.link/indochino]: Off-the-rack suits NEVER fit right. Indochino makes fully custom suits that fit perfectly using any material I want, with all of the options I want. And they cost 1/3rd of what normal suits costs. I’ve purchased them with my own money for years, so I’m thrilled they are now a sponsor.
▶ Why Ties from TheTieBar? (Free shipping on orders over $50) [https://fave.co/2ImLY9I]: Normal ties are too fat. Skinny ties are too skinny. So these days I only wear ties that are exactly 2.5” wide. They are fashionable without being hipster. You see them in all of my videos. TieBar ties are perfect, come in every color I want, and never cost more than $19.
▶ Why these Tie Clips? [https://amzn.to/2WIQ6EE]: It’s really hard to find affordable tie clips that are the right size (1.5”), look good, and are great quality. These tie bars are all three. Plus the 3-pack gives a variety of styles. They pair perfectly with 2.5” ties from TheTieBar (above).
▶ Why these Pocket Squares? [https://amzn.to/2UfsKtL]: I like my pocket squares perfectly, well, square. Like straight-out-of-Mad-Men square. The only way to do that is with a stiffer material that keeps its shape. I’ve exhaustively tried dozens of pocket squares, and these are by far the best. It’s how I get the perfectly flat pocket square you see in my videos.

There are four questions that I cover today:
1. What is the Anti-SLAPP Statute?
2. Why did Michael Avenatti and Stormy Daniels lose?
3. How much will they have to pay President Trump as a result? Spoiler alert: many thousands of dollars.
–Judge Otero’s decision on the “special motion to strike” i.e. the Anti-SLAPP motion: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/5002740-Clifford-v-Trump-Order-Granting-Anti-SLAPP-Motion.html
