I got a lot of reaction to my piece laying out what I believe is a powerful circumstantial case for the proposition that a top GOP fundraiser paid a seven-figure bribe to Donald Trump, to help Trump cover up an affair with a Playboy playmate, and a possible subsequent abortion.

Michael Avenatti was openly discussing that possibility on Morning Joe today, which is all to the good, but what the world needs now is for some investigative journalists to dig into this matter further.  After all, the coverage of this story to this point has been an embarrassment to the profession:

After reading Campos’ in-depth analysis, we should all be embarrassed that we ever gave Broidy’s narrative even the slightest bit of credibility. Campos systematically decimates every aspect of the original unrealistic storyline like it was an episode of Sharknado. Quite literally, there is not one aspect of the current “plot” which makes sense, and only one element which doesn’t totally fit Campos’ alternative theory that it was really Trump, and not Broidy, who impregnated a Playboy model.

I’m not an investigative journalist — I do have a day job — so I’m not going to pursue this thing further, but the point of my piece was that the story fed to the press by the White House and Elliott Broidy is an obvious lie, and that the truth, whatever it may be, needs to be dug up.

And while we can be sure that the SDNY and Bob Mueller’s team are, unlike the media, not going to take Broidy’s word that he had an affair with Shera Bechard at face value, it would be nice if this story could be reported in some form other than the eventual transcription of an indictment or three.
