more than a dozen women over a period of decades." "His hands were all over me."

Donald Trump is no stranger to scandal and allegations of sexual misconduct.

"Grab 'em by the pussy." And each time Trump seemingly escapes

consequences unscathed. "Donald Trump approached me then his hand touched the

right inside of my breast." But recent lawsuits brought against Trump

may put his whole presidency at risk. And it may not even matter if the women

behind them are successful in court.

The woman suing Trump are porn actress and

director Stephanie Clifford who's better known by her stage name

Stormy Daniels and former contestant on The Apprentice Summer Zervos. Daniels

claims she had consensual extramarital sex with Trump at a golf tournament in 2006

"A guy walked up on me and said to me leave Trump alone forget the story"

She also claims that she and her child were later threatened to keep silent and

that she was essentially paid hush money to sign a nondisclosure agreement.

To put it simply she's suing Trump and his lawyer Michael Cohen to void that

agreement. Summer Zervos on the other hand claims she was sexually assaulted

by Trump at a hotel in Beverly Hills. Zervos isn't suing Trump for sexual

assault though — the statue of limitations on that is passed. Instead she's suing

for defamation which means she's accusing Trump for ruining her

reputation through comments he made that she was a liar and that she invented

these accusations for attention. The thing is the lawsuits brought by either

Daniels or Zervos could be incredibly damning for Trump's presidency even if

they ultimately lose their cases. The first risk to Trump is if either

case moves into the discovery phase the process were lawyers seek information

from opposing parties to build their case. Trump may not be able to fend off

these requests. If the lawyers did find evidence of misconduct related to their

clients' cases or even evidence involving other individuals they would be able to

release those documents to the press or to the public. The next big risk for

Trump is the prospect of a deposition if deposed Trump would have to answer

questions under oath and Trump who has a strained relationship with the truth

would likely be at a particularly high risk of perjuring himself.

We've actually been here before. Paula Jones sued former President Bill Clinton in 1994.

Now Jones ultimately lost her case but that didn't matter.

Clinton perjured himself in deposition and ended up impeached though he was

later acquitted by the Senate. Zervos and Daniels are far from alone in accusing

Trump of sexual misconduct. "I didn't know any of these women I didn't see these

women these women the woman on the plane the woman - I think they want either fame

or her campaign did it." These lawsuits could be a chance for these women

to be vindicated.
