The mainstream media has made it clear that they are absolutely obsessed with former porn star Stormy Daniels, real name Stephanie Clifford, who is alleged to have had an affair a dozen years ago with then-businessman Donald Trump.
Given that obvious obsession with all things Stormy, it was no surprise when she made an appearance as herself during the cold open sketch of Saturday Night Live this weekend in which she had a phone conversation with the president, played by Alec Baldwin.
According to Independent Journal Review, the sketch began with Baldwin's Trump on the phone with his former personal attorney Michael Cohen, played by Ben Stiller, to discuss the Stormy Daniels situation.
Stiller's Cohen first called Trump on a pay phone prior to switching to a "burner phone" to avoid anyone eavesdropping -- even as two bored FBI agents were seen listening in -- and then became confused and ended up calling a number of other members of Trump's family and administration.
Cohen eventually got back on the line with Trump, who instructed him to call Daniels while he listened in quietly, only to quickly interrupt and take over himself after hanging up on Cohen.
Trump asked Daniels to "stop making such a big deal out of this. Everyone knows it's just an act," to which Daniels replied, "I work in adult films, we're not really known for our acting."
Asked what would make everything go away, Daniels stated, "A resignation."
“Yeah, right. Being president is like doing porn. Once you do it, it's hard to do anything else,” Trump replied. He then noted how he'd "solved" the problems on the Korean peninsula and asked how he could solve their own problems, but Daniels would have none of it.
“Sorry, Donald. It's too late for that,” said Daniels. “I know you don't believe in climate change, but a storm's a-coming, baby.”
There may well be a "storm a-coming," but it likely won't be the result of this overblown tempest in a D-cup that is the media's obsession with Stormy Daniels, and it may not even be aimed at Trump.

The real storm that is brewing is the upcoming Department of Justice Inspector General's report on the widespread malfeasance of the DOJ and FBI during the prior Obama administration, and it isn't a laughing matter at all.
Stormy Daniels and the liberal media better enjoy laughing during the rest of her 15 minutes of fame, because it is almost over.
