Trump compares Stormy to his daughter

Post by TC Talks » Thu May 09, 2024 5:00 pm

Man this guy is creepy.

I won't publish the entire testimony, but Trump tried to modify his gag order so he could rant about her to his idiots.
Jurors heard a vivid account of the Lake Tahoe encounter and met the woman who had received the hush-money payment. This could have presented a risk for prosecutors, depending on whether the jury viewed Ms. Daniels’s story as prurient or powerful.

Ms. Daniels described meeting Mr. Trump at the golf event and accepting his dinner invitation after her publicist said, “What could possibly go wrong?”

She recalled that Mr. Trump had been wearing pajamas when she met him at his hotel suite and that she asked him to change. They discussed the porn industry, and he asked about residuals, unions and testing for sexually transmitted diseases, she said.

She said they had talked about his family, including his daughter, whom he likened to Ms. Daniels — “People underestimate her as well,” Ms. Daniels recalled him as saying. They also discussed his wife; Mr. Trump said they did not “even sleep in the same room.” He suggested that Ms. Daniels might appear on “The Apprentice.”

When she later emerged from the bathroom, Ms. Daniels found Mr. Trump partially undressed, she said. The sex was consensual, she said, but there was a power “imbalance.”
I bet there was a power imbalance, she likely fucked the wax out of his ears.

Trump fans, we want to hear from you, the phone lines are open.

Would you knock it off with the plagiarism? You NEVER, EVER post links to what you quote, and lately, you haven't even been mentioning the source.

Also, WTF does any of this have to do with the charges against Trump? I think there's already grounds for a mistrial given the sheer volume of testimony that the judge is allowing that has nothing to do with the case and is designed to do nothing more than drag Trump's name through the mud.

Plagiarism? That's your response? When have I taken credit for journalistic quotes?

I almost always cite the New York Times, which has 5 reporters covering the trial, including this scathing look at the defense incompetency. It isn't going to mistrial, that's just Trump displeased that he can't afford decent attorneys.
Justice Merchan again criticizes the defense for not objecting to testimony that was later used in a motion for mistrial. He says he agrees that the question about whether Trump wore a condom should not have been asked or answered. But he says he does not know “why on earth” Susan Necheles, the defense lawyer, didn’t object to that question.
How can any faith leader endorse this guy? He's Satan's agent of "Win".

Maybe not links but almost always an attribution gets put at the bottom.

I responded to the content of the post. I asked WTF any of yesterday's testimony had to do with the actual case against Trump. Even mainstream left-leaning media outlets are saying that much of yesterday's testimony is largely irrelevant. Do you think it is ok for prosecutors to use a court room to smear a person with things they may or may not have done if those things are largely irrelevant to the matter before the court?

I agree that there has to be a line somewhere, but perhaps the prosecution thinks painting a picture of the graphic details is going to show a clear motive for the hush money payment in the first place. I don't know how that leads to the fraud committed to cover up the payment, but who knows?
Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

The defense sure likes to complain about the things they have fumbled during the trial.

Trump denied that he has sex with Stormy as his basis to suggest that the payments weren't as described. That opened the door for the prosecutor to present evidence that Trump infact had sex with her. Had he simply skipped this line of defense, all this week's testimony would have been disallowed.

He continues to either trust poor lawyers or direct them to make stupid moves.

Trump can deny all he wants. But unless he is willing to make that denial on the witness stand, under oath, it won't be something the jury can even consider.

Daniel's testimony will go unrefuted.

You have a good point. Trump petitioned the court to lift the gag order so he could refute Stormy's testimony to his minions. The judge disallowed it. He wants to play this trial out to the public.

I still think it is a far stretch to argue that whether or not they actually had intercourse is relevant. The Judge should have barred both sides from bringing that particular matter up. A non-disclosure agreement is a non-disclosure agreement regardless of whether the alleged behavior that was the subject of the NDA actually occurred or not.

My question would be if there wasn't sex why pay her the money? At this point he should just admit it, if true and it seems it is, only they know for sure. It didn't hurt JFK or Bill Clinton and I doubt , other than his marriage, it would hurt Trump.

The answer would be the same answer as to why innocent parties settle out of court in civil matters or plea bargain in criminal matters. Sometimes it just plain makes your life moving forward easier.

And we all know Trump can't do anything easy.

If he had simply turned over the classified documents at Mari Lago he wouldn't be going to trial for that situation.

It's called picking your battles.

I have no idea if Trump did what Stormy claims, but I do know it doesn't belong in a court room, especially over something so petty as a misdemeanor book-keeping allegation.
