Former adult-film star Stormy Daniels said in a tweet on Monday that she would "go to jail" before paying former President TrumpDonald TrumpOhio GOP Senate candidates tout MAGA bona fides at debateEx-Trump personal assistant appears before Jan. 6 panelGOP sounds alarm bells over Greitens allegationsMORE any money following an appeals court decision ordering her to pay his legal fees.
"I will go to jail before I pay a penny," Daniels said in a tweet after a federal appeals court upheld the decision ordering her to pay Trump $300,000 in attorneys' fees after her failed defamation case.
Trump called the decision a "complete victory and vindication" in a statement Monday. Daniels alleges she and Trump had sex in 2006 and says his attorney paid her to stay quiet about it ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
Daniels sued Trump in 2018 over a tweet in which he mocked her claim that a man threatened her in 2011 over her allegations of having sex with Trump. He called a sketch of the man a "con job."
A federal judge dismissed the case that year, also ordering Daniels to pay Trump's legal fees, and the Supreme Court declined a request to review the case. Daniels then appealed the legal fees to the 9th circuit.
In response to the decision, Trump said in a statement, "As I have stated many times throughout the years, I never had an affair with Stormy Daniels, nor would I ever have wanted to. The ruling was a total and complete victory and vindication for, and of me."
The amount Daniels now owes Trump is the same as the amount her former attorney, Michael Avenatti, was convicted of stealing from her.
Avenatti was found guilty of aggravated identity theft and wire fraud earlier this year in connection with stealing $300,000 from Daniels from an advance for her tell-all book about her alleged affair with the former president.
Daniels has previously said she harbored more anger toward Avenatti than toward the former president.
"I only met Trump a handful of times, not even. I didn't consider him to be a friend," Daniels said.
"Michael Avenatti betrayed my trust in every way possible. He lied to my face. He lied about me. He put me on a stand for five and a half hours and called me names," she also said.

Needed to get back in the limelight I see. If she goes to jail, it won't last long...............and I think she is counting on that. Perhaps some "fans" will set up a Go-Fund-Me page and she won't have to actually pay it herself LMAO
Hookers never spend a lot of time in jail.
Maybe she should get her shyster thieving lawyer to keep her out of jail. Oh, that's right he's already in jail!
I think she should open up to mushroom dick again and charge him 300k for the pleasure.
Yet she claims to have had sex with him? Sounds like she was shaking him down for money; and it was easier for him to pay her off than let her go public with her BS. She believed her own lie after Democrats and Avenatti bolstered her and made her a household name.
Pervy sex lawyer at his best. Democrats wanted him to be President. Daniels had better learn who she can black mail; and who she can trust. Maybe she can pay off her debt in prison- make a reality porno to sell to her fans.
So long Stormy
Didn't Avenatti also bring forth a fake Kavanaugh accuser
Yep................yep he did
The bull dykes will love her ....
I believe there is no jail time for nonpayment of a civil suit.
That is correct. We don't have debtors' prisons in America regarding civil cases.
I don't know if the law is the same as where I came from, but in Ontario application can be made and granted to register a lien against real property, seize and sell assets to gain the proceeds, distrain (seize) incoming income, etc. in order to collect a monetary judgment.
I sure as hell practised law in the wrong country.
Yes, the new Clifford saga is going to be funny. However, the last laugh will not be Trump's. More stuff is on the way and Russian money is drying up. Trump brought this on himself. With this 'alleged win', the long run is going to be the longest run he's ever had.
