There's no blackmail involved.  She was going to do something.  THEY wanted her not to do it and made her an offer.  She didn't threaten them which is the key element of blackmail.  Too bad NOBODY CARES about women bullshit!  I would say that people who care most about women bullshit and sexuality morality in general are White Evangelicals and they only don't care about this is because it's Trump. But we're beyond that.  The payment to Stormy was done in such a way that multiple crimes were committed. And people do care about that.  Russia gate went out the door.  We are just dealing with one part of this very, very wide scandal.  We have heard everything Michael Cohen talking about yet and the special counsel said Cohen gave info related the "core" of his investigation. Cohen also said Donald Trump was doing business in Russia during the presidential campaign.  Business that needed Putin's approval to be successful and that Cohen had phone calls with the office of Dmitry Peskov, Putin's close advisor and spokesperson.
