Former President Donald Trump was back in New York City Thursday for his criminal trial, and it's been a pretty good day for him.
During Thursday's proceedings, Keith Davidson, the lawyer representing adult film actress Stormy Daniels, gave revealing testimony that completely undermines Bragg's charges against Trump.
Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Johsua Steinglass pressed Davidson on the witness stand about Daniels' statement in January 2018, which Davidson prepared for his client, that denied any relationship with Trump and said that her only interaction with Trump was "a few public appearances and nothing more." "Rumors that I have received hush money from Donald Trump are completely false," the statement says.
"I don't believe that Stormy ever alleged that any interaction with Trump was 'romantic,'" Davidson testified Thursday.
It is his understanding that Daniels had a sexual encounter with Trump.
The payment was labeled "legal fees" in Trump's accounting, which prosecutors allege amounted to fraud.
"The goofiest part of this prosecution is that Bragg claims Trump falsified private business records to influence an election.
