Taking the stand and having to relive that trauma was incredibly brave. Hopefully she was able to make the jury see what a wretched creature Trump actually is.
The ‘act’ is necessary to illustrate exactly what TFG wanted to hide; and the motive for the falsified records when taken in conjunction with Access Hollywood-exactly what TFG and Cohen NEVER wanted out. Further Hope Hicks puts the lie to any ‘Edwards Defense’ for TFG. Great job on this! Interesting that repeatedly only women take him on and succeed: Pelosi, Cheney, E Jean and Stormy: Bravo Ladies!👏🏻
How many jurors will understand the disassociation? Most people don’t “get it” and most people don’t understand what it means to have a big, lug of a man insisting upon having his way with a woman; they don’t understand the fight/flight response or the way women have to negotiate from a place where their power is forfeited from the get-go.
Thank you for your take on Daniels, the brave woman. It’s a tawdry scenario but, tragically, people need to know about it. It is a far cry from the Edward’s days when no details were needed to end his career. And another sad commentary is that we have a case in Florida that requires no steamy details but the clear evidence that a person claimed sensitive documents illegally. Should be open and shut but we are focused instead on this crude behavior.

Thank you Nina!
Stormy stepped up as did E Jean.

I agree, and have said that before. How come it is mostly the women with the guts to stand up to him?

Agree but the jurors are not supposed to consider that aspect anyway. It's a trial about the money.
Covenant Eyes or Covetous Eyes? GOP Christians have made a mockery of their alleged faith. They will not be raptured. Great piece, Nina.

Remember she was still in her 20s when this happened. Until you turn 30, you don’t have any real life experience to protect you from predators.
Well written and insightful!
