Mike Pence says allegations Trump had affair with adult film star are 'baseless'

Vice President Mike Pence on Monday pushed back against allegations that adult film star Stormy Daniels had a year-long affair with President Donald Trump.

According to the Associated Press, Pence was visiting Israel when he was asked about the alleged affair, which recently resurfaced after reports suggested that Trump paid the actress $130,000 for her silence.

Pence told AP that he was “not going to comment on the latest baseless allegations against the president.”

It was not immediately clear how Pence came to the conclusion that the allegations are "baseless."

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, is said to have signed an agreement barring her from discussing her relationship with Trump.
