Stormy and the bookkeepers | The Trump Trials: Sidebar
On this week's episode, the crew discusses adult film actress Stormy Daniels' testimony about her sexual encounter with the former president, and whether the prosecution went too far in asking for specific details.
And senior video journalist Jorge Ribas joins the show from outside the Manhattan courthouse where the trial is taking place, to reveal what it's like covering the trial and what reporters can actually see.
Plus, video journalist Blair Guild joins the show to break down former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen's regular TikTok live broadcasts - a surprising move from one of the prosecution's key witnesses. Read more: wapo.st/3WvCf6U. Subscribe to The Washington Post on KZread: wapo.st/2QOdcqK

And the phone conversation that was played for the judge behind closed doors. Paints a different story. Which makes stormy seem like she’s black mailing trump. The jury won’t hear it.

Seriously?
Cohen is not gagged. Cohen is talking, but he hasn't been talking about the trial for a few weeks. He repeatedly says that on the Midas touch
If our money is good for this then put our money into giving it back to us and that’s her pirn name why not use her real name
This is where we hear transcript. Kudos. Thanks 👍
What about her expensive vacations? I thought ethics rules applied to her. Do we have to wait until she files her taxes or are there other forms she is required to submit?

She has paid her taxes, if she hadn't the IRS would have gone after her because of her celebrity. Why would Trump pay Stormy a penny if it wasn't true? This is all true! Trump is guilty!
Doesn't the blooper reel usually FOLLOW the podcast? Yikes.
The justice system as theater…. Good move America, it’s possible to make ANYTHING fun!
People are so dumb if they get all into like it’s the news that matters . Who cares about this . What about the kids being used and sold

Oh dear! Whataboutism ( a very basic logical fallacy) ! Are you helping the 'kids being used and sold'? How are you doing that? If you are so concerned why are you watching a show about this 'news that doesn't matter'?

Why wouldn’t he want to keep it quiet for the election- I’m sure that’s a very common thing- like Biden for instance; covering up the errant son and his problematic lap top! 🤔 maybe I just don’t get it…..

A conviction on such shaky grounds will only solidify his base. He's going to win the election. Whether or not he is allowed to take office is another matter entirely. His detractors may actually kick off the next civil war trying to stop that. Either way, as an outside observer, your country is in peril.
