"Can you tell the jury again what his bodyguard told you?"
"That Mr Trump was interested in having me joining him for dinner"
"And what did you say at the time"
"Fuck no!"
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Nonetheless, Trump’s fortunes rest, to a large degree, on her credibility, a 45-year-old former porn star who the New York Times described this week as “a complicated and imperfect witness”.
If Carroll – elegant, measured, articulate – was the perfect victim, Daniels is practically the archetype of the woman court systems tend to revile.
Daniels, who has already been rebuked by the judge for straying off topic, may prove too wayward a witness to achieve what Carroll did: the civil case equivalent of a guilty verdict against a man almost supernaturally able to avoid them.
You couldn’t make up the details of her testimony this week, which sent court reporters scrambling to find sober ways to present her account of spanking Trump with a rolled up magazine and insisting on having sex with her without a condom.
If the narrative he constructed around the Carroll accusation was the classic too-ugly-to-rape defence, this won’t work with Daniels – 30 years his junior and a confident sexual operator who appears hellbent on depicting Trump as a pathetic little man.
Trump has long capitalised on the idea that he is the kind of “pussy-grabbing” sexual aggressor who might enjoy sex with a porn star.
The original article contains 767 words, the summary contains 201 words. Saved 74%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
“I understand your client is upset but he is cursing audibly,”
Yeah. Whatcha gonna do about it judge? That's what we thought.
This is a woman willing to meet Trump at his preferred site of conflict – public humiliation – and on the evidence so far, he isn’t weathering it well.
What an excellent sentence
"Did you end up having dinner that night?" "No"
That's all she was there for - didn't even get food!
no way lmfao
