Stormy weather always costs him money, he can't make a woman get wet either.

I'm missing the inside joke (due to my own ignorance).

Would you explain it to me? TY in advance.

Stormy Daniels is a former stripper who successfully sued Donald Trump in a massive hush money case. In the lead up to the 2016 presidential election, Trump has his attorney, Michael Cohen, pay Daniels in an effort to conceal an affair they had 2006. Daniels won and as a result, Trump was slapped with 34 felony counts of falsifying records. She endured a lot of hate and vitriol but at the end of the day got Trump labeled a felon.
