Donald Trump

Daniels seems to be handling things a bit better today. I still don't really think her credibility is the thing that's at issue here anyway, so I'm not sure how much it ultimately matters to the case.

In the most neutral interpretation, she seems like somebody who was misled and taken advantage of by Trump. At first, she just wanted to move past it, but wasn't allowed to because other people were leaking the story. She therefore decided to go public and since then has embellished minor details of her account, and made the most of whatever opportunities she had to derive some financial benefit from it.

But...

Trump still paid her lawyer $130k (this is documented fact).
He still fudged his business accounts (documented fact).
He still likely broke campaign finance laws (to be determined by the jury).

So... even if she is totally making everything up, I don't think it's even particularly relevant. It seems like the Defence are just using this as an opportunity to try and embarrass her or ruin her credibility on behalf of Trump.
I saw an interview with Stormy some time ago. I was surprised that she was so articulate and quite charming. Just prejudice on my part, I fear. Ben at Meidas touch described her performance today as ‘brilliant’. Reading some of the exchanges, she was sharp and almost taking the piss out of Trump’s lawyer.
The jury apparently hated the lawyer. A mistake to attack Stormy, gaslighting.

Trump’s lawyers were really deeply unpleasant to her, for seemingly no reason that would benefit the case. Which is why I wonder if Trump just instructed them to do it like his attack dogs.

Stormy is quick though, she had a few zingers:

Defence: “Even though you had agreed that you would not discuss this supposed story and you had received a lot of money for that agreement, you then decided that you wanted to publicly say that you had sex with Donald Trump,”

Daniels: “Nobody would ever want to publicly say that.”


I bet there was some ketchup on the walls of the Trump residence last night.

Prosecution/She outmanoeuvred them, day 1 Stormy was a bit too into the attention, she clearly enjoyed humiliating Trump, which was fun but ran too close to the worries about this trial being seen as political theatre and not a serious crime which would turn the jury.

Day 2, she came back all business and they were still trying to lay traps for Day 1, enjoying-her-moment Daniels.

The day off probably helped a lot, but someone either Daniel’s herself or the prosecution definitely changed her attitude on the stand to make it more professional.
 
This is a bit off topic but if Don Jr ever wants to be worshipped by the MAGA crowd and potentially run in the future, he should get himself arrested for contempt of court in one of these trials.

The “martyr to a crooked justice department character” is being received incredibly well with Trumps crowd, jr jumping in front of a bullet for his dad and getting locked up for speaking out would get him a lot of credit.

The subsequent drug test in the cop shop might be his undoing though.
 


Biden is killing Trump in the fundraising. And that's even before you think about what they are going to spend it on (Trump has sacked all the GOP staff and has massive legal bills).
