During the trial concerning former President Donald Trump’s alleged lies on business records related to a payment to Stormy Daniels, a noteworthy incident unfolded capturing the attention of spectators, including George Conway of the Lincoln Project. Conway, known for his criticism of Trump, struggled to contain laughter during the courtroom drama.
As reported by Raw Story on May 9, 2024, Trump’s lawyer, Susan Necheles, delved into detailed questioning regarding Daniels’ claim of a 2006 sexual encounter with Trump, transforming the courtroom into a spectacle. Conway later discussed this on CNN, describing the proceedings as messy and embarrassing, noting jurors trying to stifle laughter at Daniels’ sharp comebacks.
Necheles attempted to challenge Daniels’ credibility by referencing her adult film industry career, implying she shouldn’t have felt intimidated by Trump. A pivotal moment arose when Necheles questioned why Daniels accepted $130,000 for silence instead of a public press conference, with Daniels citing timing related to the 2016 election campaign.
