Although Keith Davidson is just a supporting actor in this drama, his role negotiating an alleged hush money payment to Stormy Daniels makes him key, Norm Eisen writes.

When a lawyer who is presenting a case at trial bumps into a colleague outside of court, a common question is, “How’s the case coming in?” This query reflects that planning a trial is one thing — but how well the evidence, especially testimony given by the witnesses, actually “comes in” before the judge and jury is another. In Donald Trump’s Manhattan election interference trial, the case is coming in better than expected, and that is ominous for the former president.

He answered that it meant “our efforts may have in some way — strike that — our activities may have in some way assisted the presidential campaign of Donald Trump.” When Davidson said those words, the normal hush of the courtroom was suddenly punctuated by the audible clattering of the keyboards of more than 60 journalists seated in the pew-like benches.
