As Stormy Daniels finished testifying at Donald Trump’s hush money trial, one question lingered – did she help prosecutors prove the former president falsified business records?
Daniels recounted in lurid detail her tryst with Trump in a hotel room in 2006 before seeing him several more times over the next year, an account the former president adamantly denies. A decade later, former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen paid her $130,000 to stay silent just before the election.
