Stormy Daniels, porn actor central to Trump’s hush money trial, takes the stand
The Hill ^ | 05/07/2024 | ELLA LEE

Stormy Daniels, the porn actor paid hush money to keep an alleged affair with Donald Trump secret ahead of the 2016 election, has taken the stand Tuesday in the former president’s New York criminal trial.

Daniels, wearing black with her hair in a clip, smiled nervously as she entered the room, walking quickly toward the stand. She put on a pair of black, thick-rimmed glasses as she started.

Trump was whispering with his attorney, Todd Blanche, and watched Daniels as she prepared to begin her testimony.

And the other thing that’s so absurd about the election tampering allegation is that this was a private accounting ledger for which there would be no reason to expect that it would become public. Claiming that Trump mis-represented the ledger entry in order to hide something, when there was no expectation that it would ever become public in the first place, is just one more absurd claim that the prosecution is trying to sell. The entry only became known because the ledger was seized when Michael Cohen’s office was raided.

Do you have a DNA sample that proves Trump banged her? Even Daniels signed a statement that no affair occurred. And when it was pointed out that the NDA agreement she signed didn't have Trump's name or signature on it, she sued to have it nullified. She lost that battle.

It looks like you're gullible enough to believe anything the main stream media throws out there.

The alleged affair occurred in 2006. Trump was a billionaire back then. Why didn't she try to hustle money from him back then? Why did she wait 9 years until he ran for President in 2015 to shake him down? Did you ever bother to ask yourself that question?

Haven't you seen a pattern with bimbos like this who only come forward at the behest of the RAT party to recall events that happened years before, but they said nothing of them at the time? How about Christine-Blasey-Ford? E. Jeanne Carroll? Anita Hill? Plenty of other RAT assets who have tried to ruin someone's career. They pulled this same crap with Herman Caine when he ran for President. They did the same thing to Judge Roy Moore.

Just like Christine Blasey-Ford. Hers were coke bottles.

"She probably got all dolled up, including a good facial."

She had a bikini wax just in case the Judge wanted to see her in his chamber later, to meet his staff.

"Point is accurate, but the word comes from Union General Hooker"

I worked with a guy whose last name was Hooker, and was related to the General. I'm surprised Boston hasn't removed the equestrian statue of him outside the State House yet.

This is from 2018:

She denied her denial, lol

Looking to the jury, she’s back on the stand after the break

Dunno.

Don’t care.

Trump’s a man of his era, but this parade of women aren’t his type.

I represented about a dozen porn “actresses” during my career. Each one was out of their flipping mind. I had an office policy that if a female entered my personal office, they'd have to be accompanied by one of my female employees.

Rule of thumb, never ever be alone with anyone in the adult industry. Also, never socialize with them no matter how often they ask.

By all rights this should have called for a mistrial.

Stormy's a liar...we know that...and a black mailer.

And I'd say "ditto" for Cohen.

Voted for Trump twice and will vote for him again. Nevertheless not into hero worship. Whatever his relationship with this plastic porn actress/whore, giving her any money, for any reason just to go away was not only futile but stupid. She would never just go away. Always surprised that Trump spent 30 years in the NYC construction business but never truly learned the street. He made the same mistakes in Atlantic City.

“She put on a pair of black, thick-rimmed glasses as she started.”

That’s called “the naughty librarian look”

Try paying attention and stop believing whatever the TDS gaslight press tells you to believe.

HE DID NOT PAY IT, AND HE DID NOT AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO DO SO.

There is much wisdom in your post.

Never forget that the “hot” axis is bounded between zero and ten, but the “crazy” axis has no upper limit.

I’ve not heard that Stormy (who owes Trump half a million) had tangible proof of intimate contact.

For somebody who doesn’t know Trump personally, you certainly claim to know a lot about him, his business practices, and his personal life. Nobody cares about your unsourced, or verified opinions, gossip, rumors or innuendoes.

Speak for yourself....you have no idea what other people are thinking.

Using your logic your doing exactly what your accusing the original poster of doing......which apparently makes you a DEMOCRAT.
