Okay, what did I miss? I saw pictures of the contract. I didn't notice where it was from.
So let's recap, shall we? Stormy has an alias but the contract uses her real name. Trump uses his alias on the contract. (last name Dennison). We have a porn star who did the dirty in Vegas and Florida(?). Trump's lawyer lives in NY. The porn star lives in Texas. Cohen sets up a shell account in Delaware to pass through $130k. He writes up a contract and takes it(?) to Texas (or did he FEDEX it down there) to Stormy's state of residence. He has a notary stamp put on the contract but somehow the notary forgot to sign it? Seriously, how is this even possibly a contract--binding or otherwise?? Or are these really stupid people!
Texas seems interested in this little NOTARY "omission".
PS The notary doesn't remember the document but more over, she won't answer any questions.
Texas notary's failure to sign Stormy Daniels' hush agreement is under investigation

Texas officials are investigating whether a Dallas-area notary properly signed off on Stormy Daniels’ agreement to stay quiet about her alleged affair with President Donald Trump.
The notary issue is the latest in a string of curiosities surrounding the murky deal involving Trump personal lawyer Michael Cohen and the adult-film actress, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.
A notary in Forney, where Daniels lives, did not sign and date the 2016 agreement, which was finalized a few days before the presidential election. She also did not provide a certificate reflecting whose signature she was witnessing, according to the Texas Secretary of State.
Notaries are third-party witnesses tasked with verifying that real people are signing legal documents.
Texas law requires that notaries not only stamp documents, but sign and date them. They also must provide a certificate reflecting that they verified the identity of the signer or signers.
In a letter to the notary obtained by The Dallas Morning News, a secretary of state employee informed the notary that the agency is examining her actions following a complaint.
“Attaching your seal to a document without a notarial certificate constitutes good cause for the secretary of state to take action against your notary commission," Maria Y. Morales wrote in a March 9 letter.

The notary, Erica Jackson, told The News in a brief conversation Friday that she could not recall the document and declined to be interviewed. She could not be reached Monday for comment about the complaint. Daniels' attorney also could not be reached.
Copies of the agreement were posted online last week, drawing questions about Jackson’s missing signature. A complaint was soon lodged with the secretary of state, which regulates notaries.
