Trump Trial Resumes Today

 



Via CNN, here's what is expected to happen as the 10th day of the Malignant Loser's hush money for porn stars/ election interference/ fraud trial resumes today:

Keith Davidson is scheduled to return to the stand Thursday. He was the lawyer who was at the center of the so-called hush money agreements with Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.

The lawyer helped negotiate the deals to silence Daniels and McDougal over their alleged encounters with Donald Trump. Davidson said in an interview with CNN in 2018 that he’d spoken with Michael Cohen on several occasions about the two women.

Davidson also said he called Cohen in the late summer of 2016 to inform him that he’d settled a case involving Playboy model McDougal. McDougal sold the rights to her story to American Media Inc., the parent company of the National Enquirer, for $150,000 and other perks. Davidson said he informed Cohen of the deal as “a professional courtesy.”

During his testimony last week, David Pecker, the former publisher of the National Enquirer, testified about his communications with Davidson throughout the process of negotiating the payments.

First, though, Judge Merchan is holding another gag order hearing to determine whether further sanctions should be applied to the Malignant Loser for additional violations:

... Earlier in the week, the judge levied a $9,000 fine against Trump for multiple violations of the judge’s gag order barring public discussion of witnesses in the case or the jury. Trump was also required to take nine posts down between Truth Social and his campaign website.

The prosecution Thursday will now argue he should be sanctioned for four more allegations.

The toddler/ tyrant with no impulse control, who's coming to realize he's not in charge of the situation, may need the judge to make good on his threat of incarceration if the violations continue.
