Donald Trump is back in court today for his hush money trial, the first criminal case against a former US president. Some of today's testimony may well come from Stormy Daniels herself, after her lawyer said she is 'likely' to take the stand.
The 12th day of Donald Trump's trial was marked by another gag order ruling against the former president and testimony from two new witnesses.
They described the process for making payments at the company and detailed how Trump's then lawyer Michael Cohen was paid for the payments made to adult film actor Stormy Daniels. Outside the courtroom, Trump railed against the judge's ruling on the gag order."Frankly, our Constitution is far more important than jail," he said, while suggesting that he might violate the order again."I'll do that choice any day.
Clark Brewster has told The Associated Press that Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, is"likely" to be called as a witness today - though it's unclear exactly when.
