Plenty of circumstantial evidence at Donald Trump’s trial

Instead this week jurors heard from Stormy Daniels, a former porn star and current host of the gay-dating show “For the Love of DILFs”. The felony charges against Mr Trump stem from a payment that Mr Cohen made to Ms Daniels before the 2016 presidential election, to keep her story of sex with the then candidate out of the press. Her description of that encounter in 2006—which Mr Trump denies—was salacious. There was talk of spanking and missionary position. The defence tried to paint her as a money-grubbing extortionist, to which she replied matter-of-factly: “Don’t we all want to make more money in our jobs?”
