Jonathan Turley criticized Daniels testimony as showing that she was trying to get money out of Trump in the hush money deal.

Adult film star Stormy Daniels' claim of not trying to get money from former President Donald Trump was 'shattered' during her cross-examination in Manhattan Criminal Court on Friday, legal analyst and attorney Jonathan Turley said on Saturday.Trump, the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee, became the first former president in U.S. history to stand trial in a criminal case last month.

It shattered her laughable claim that she had not really been seeking money in shaking Trump down for a non-disclosure agreement, a claim contradicted by her own former lawyer,' Turley wrote in an opinion piece for The Hill published on Saturday.When asked by Newsweek which parts of Daniels' testimony hurt her claim of not being motivated by money, Turley pointed to a taped conversation between Daniels and her former lawyer Keith Davidson that was played for the court.
