Oh, what an absolute whirlwind of confusion and haste! Stormy Daniels, the adult film actress, if you can believe it, is all fired up and ready to testify against the former President, Donald Trump. The whole thing is about some alleged hush money payments during his 2016 presidential campaign. She’s going to be on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” and says she has “nothing to hide” – if you can imagine that!
But here’s the thing, she thinks that if she’s not called to testify, it’s like the prosecutors are trying to keep her story under wraps. Can you believe it? She wants to take the stand and make her story legit.
Now, Trump has pleaded not guilty to a whopping 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. It’s all about these hush money payments to Daniels and another woman to keep them from blabbing about their alleged affairs with him. And guess what? This is the first time a former president has been charged with a crime! Of course, he denies everything.
So, they had this arraignment with Judge Juan Merchan on Tuesday. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is on the case, but who knows how long this whole legal circus is going to take? Months, maybe even longer! Some folks familiar with New York criminal cases think it might take a lot longer than the six months they usually give for felony cases in the state.
And get this, Trump’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, doesn’t even think it’ll get to a jury. He thinks the whole thing is going to “fall on its merits, on legal challenges” way before that happens. What a wild, unpredictable ride we’re in for!
