On Saturday, LA attorney Gloria Allred held a press conference with a porn star who said that GOP nominee Donald Trump had offered her $10,000 and a plane ride for sex.
The famous attorney, who is already representing two of Trump's other female accusers, began the press conference by responding to remarks Trump made earlier in the day. Speaking in Gettysburg, Trump had threatening to sue all of his now 11 female accusers for defamation.
"Women will not be intimidated into silence by Donald Trump," Allred, a staunch Hillary Clinton supporter, promised. She could marshal "an army of lawyers" to support them and Trump will "have to prove that their allegations are not true" and open himself up to counter suits in the process.
Speaking directly to Trump through the camera, Allred said his threat at Gettysburg was "an admission of the hopelessness of your cause" and "a new low, even for you."
Then Allred turned the conference over to "Jessica" and let the pornstar whose stage name is Jessica Drake tell her story.
"This is not acceptable behavior for anyone, much less a presidential candidate," Drake told assembled reporters. She said that she is "not looking for monetary compensation" but rather to "stand in solidarity" with other Trump accusers.
