“Don Lemon sits down with NY Law School Adjunct Professor and Retired NY Supreme Court Justice Diane Kiesel and Former New York City Prosecutor & Criminal Defense Attorney Paul Callan to discuss the latest in Trump’s criminal trial.”

From the Don Lemon Show

As I mentioned yesterday:

“And then again as a non-lawyer, I would like the alleged affairs with Stephanie Clifford and Karen McDougal actually get established in court, so the defense can’t argue that these women with their lawyer Keith Davidson, we’re extorting Donald Trump.”

From The New Democrat

As my colleague Kire Schneider talked about yesterday: 

“I’m with Fred, I want these affairs with Stephanie Clifford and Karen McDougal to be factually established. But maybe in this “perfect omelette” you want both bacon and perhaps chili as well. And if I’m the Manhattan District Attorney, I want both the bacon and chili, not to make my omelette perfect. (One or the other would be fine though) But to make the criminal case against Donald J. Trump perfect.”

From The New Democrat

Now that the Manhattan District Attorney is at let’s say the 5 yard line (to use a football reference) as far as establishing that Donald Trump not only knew about the payments to Stephanie Clifford (also known as Stormy Daniels) and Karen McDougal, but why they were made, the prosecution now wants to establish the affairs actually happened as well. So the defense can’t argue that their client was being extorted.

The fact that Stephanie Clifford not only said that she had an affair in 2006 with Donald J. Trump, but laid out details that only the two people involved in the alleged affair could possibly know about, helps her.

One could could say (especially a MAGA member or good defense lawyer) that this is just the word of a porn chick and reality TV star. (To put it bluntly and if they were completely honest) Who are you going to believe? A tie would go to the defendant in this case. But the fact that Donald Trump’s lawyers are already calling for a mistrial because of the Stormy details, (pun intended) tells me they believe her testimony is not helpful to them and even damaging. But again, I’m not a lawyer.
