In a dramatic courtroom showdown, Stormy Daniels confronted former President Donald Trump on Tuesday, May 7, revealing explicit details about their alleged affair. As Daniels detailed their encounters, Trump was seen visibly upset, mouthing curses to his lawyers and shaking his head in disbelief.
During the trial, Daniels disclosed how she playfully spanked Trump with a rolled-up magazine featuring his face on the cover, causing laughter among jurors. She also claimed that Trump reassured her not to worry about his wife Melania, as they allegedly did not share the same bedroom.
Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan reprimanded Trump for his audible cursing and visual displays of contempt, warning him of potential consequences for influencing the jury. Despite objections from Trump’s legal team, Merchan mostly ruled in their favor.
After the proceedings, Trump expressed his frustration with the case, calling it a “disgrace” and lamenting that he should be out campaigning instead. However, he received a legal victory as US District Judge Aileen Cannon, appointed by Trump, indefinitely postponed a classified documents case against him.
Legal experts and political analysts noted that Cannon’s decision was not surprising, as she has previously sided with the former president. The courtroom drama between Trump and Daniels continues to captivate audiences, shedding light on the tumultuous relationship between the two figures.
