Lawyers for Donald Trump on Thursday sought to discredit and undermine testimony from Stormy Daniels, who gave combative testimony about her alleged sexual encounter with the former president and the $130,000 hush-money payment at the heart of the criminal case.
Prosecutors also started laying the groundwork for their move to tie Trump to former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen – who wired the hush money and was reimbursed – by calling former White House aide Madeleine Westerhout to the stand.
