The exchange occurred during Friday’s post-testimony hearing, where Marchan denied the defense’s second motion for a mistrial based on Stormy Daniels’ unfavorable testimony. Marchan took the time to remind Trump’s lawyers that he reviewed Stormy’s testimony and opening statement on Tuesday. “You denied that there was any sexual contact between Stormy Daniels and the defendant,” Marchand told Trump’s lead attorney, Todd Blanche, so her testimony and their It was the defense that opened the door to “troublesome details” in opposition. As she said President Trump refused to wear a condom during sex.
Additionally, Marchan said the defense did not object to the “confused details” that emerged in direct testimony during the prosecution’s cross-examination, and that the defense would use testimony that could not be challenged as the basis for a mistrial. It was determined that it was not possible. Judge Marchan even said he didn’t understand “why on earth” Trump’s lawyer, Susan Necheres, didn’t object to questions that elicited “troubling details” about the missing condom.
Friday’s testimony by Stormy Daniels did not go well for the defense. Necheles, Trump’s lawyer, spent nearly an hour comparing and contrasting Daniels’ testimony Tuesday with previous interviews she has given, including one she gave to the gossip magazine “I.”n touch She accused Daniels of making up a story about having sex with Trump at a Lake Tahoe hotel in 2006. Daniels replied that if she had made it up, “she would have written it to be better.” In another exchange, Necheles told Daniels that her own account of her sex with Trump was “as a porn actress with a lot of experience making false stories about her sex seem real.” ” he protested.
Daniels replied, “The sex in the movie is very real, just like what happened to me in that room.” That concludes that series of questions.
Another question failed. It questioned how Necheres had monetized his relationship with Trump by writing a book and selling votive candles with illustrations of himself depicted as a saint. That was when I did it. The line of questioning quickly ended when Daniels responded that her attempts to make money off her branded merchandise and strip club tours were “not unlike Trump.” Prosecutors then called two publishing executives to explain how much money they had made monetizing the Trump brand, clearly implying that Daniels was a victim of Trump, and to explain who had “betrayed” him. He asked Trump to read a transcript from his book in which he vowed to take revenge. , not the other way around.
An unanswered question that hung over the court during Stormy Daniels’ testimony and while Judge Marchan rejected Trump’s motion for a mistrial was that in 2006, Trump shot Stormy Daniels in a Lake Tahoe hotel room. If he didn’t have sex with her, why did he have sex with her? Did his lawyer pay her $130,000 to sign a non-disclosure agreement about what happened between them?
The trial of E. Jean Carroll’s lawsuit begins, until the judge finds that Donald Trump raped her based on the common definition of the term, and in this trial, Stormy Daniels I was able to hear her story about her sexual encounter with Daniels. For the record, Mr. Trump has escaped the practice of “deny, deny, deny.”
This time, by getting his lawyer to “deny, deny, deny” that he had a sexual relationship with Stormy Daniels, he has revealed the truth not only to the world, but also to the people of Manhattan who will now have to decide who to believe. It was also disclosed to the jury. Either Donald Trump, who relied on his lawyers to deny this story, or a very intelligent and reliable witness who shrugged off every attempt by those same lawyers to poke holes in her story.
Prosecutors are nearing the conclusion of the case. They plan to call several more witnesses to establish how Trump falsified his business records, and then Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen. Jurors have already heard audio tapes of Mr. Trump and Mr. Cohen discussing the benefits. playboy Model Karen McDougall and Cohen are certain to be the deadly witnesses providing details of Stormy Daniels’ compensation.
Perhaps Michael Cohen will answer the question of why Trump found it necessary to pay Stormy Daniels to buy her silence. Because it is certain that the expressionless, silent Donald Trump would not take such a position.
