LOOK. Trump arrives at court: “You will hear a lot of revelations today”
Susan Necheles, a lawyer for Trump, continued questioning Daniels on Thursday. Once again, the ex-porn star had to justify why she was paid to keep quiet about the sexual affair with Trump in 2006. She had previously said that she wanted to go public with that story in the past.
Daniels was convinced to sign a silence contract in exchange for money. She did not do this for the sake of payment, but for security reasons. “It was a better alternative to protect my story with a clear paper trail,” she testified. Publishing the story would “make me and my family a target,” Daniels further said.
Trump is accused of covering up a $130,000 payment to Daniels in 2016. Accounts were tampered with for this purpose. With the hush money, the then presidential candidate wanted to prevent the ex-porn star from confessing about their sexual affair in 2006.
