Donald Trump indicted by Manhattan grand jury

I see you haven't actually bothered to follow the trial.
Part of her testimony was that when the topic of Melania came up between Trump and Stormy, he expressed no worry about her finding out.

Yes and her credibility was ripped to shreds during cross examination

7thKeeper said:

It does have to do with the motivation regarding the charges, which is why she was called. Trumps defense was that he didn't pay Daniels to suppress the information for his campaign but to keep it from his wife, while Daniels in her testimony showed that Trump wasn't worried about his wife at all.

It does not matter. She has no testimony concerning that. Looks like we need new laws since lawfare has become so prevalent in this case. Corrupt judges etc.

Yes it does and yes she did. She described during her meeting and before having sex with him, that he did not show any worry to Melanie finding out, which is relevant to his claimed motivation for the payments.

She described her having sex with him. It is irrelevant.

She said she didn’t care about money she just wanted to get the story out then admitted she took money for a NDA and has since profited greatly from #elling the story. She also made statements that she never had sex with Trump.
And there were inconsistencies in her story, they had dinner, they didn’t have dinner, And she said she hated Trump and wanted to see him go to jail, not exactly things that you want your witnesses to say

I think Stormy Daniels has motivation to attack Trump for Money and the cross examination supported this but the problem is the defense team denies Trump ever met Daniels and the cross examination did not give me any doubt they met,

The defense sucks
Judge Merchan scolded the defense team for not objecting when Stormy Daniels made the attacks
"Did not wear a condom!"
and
"Trump said I would always be living in the trailer park!"

It’s obvious they met, there’s a picture of them together and I think it’s probable that he had an encounter with her, I just think af the worst what he did was a misdemeanor and like every one of the other cases against him there seems to be over charging when it comes to Trump.
and I don’t know if I would object or just let the witness expose herself. It doesn’t speak highly of her that she didn’t make him wear a condom or that she slept with him after he made demeaning comments. That’s probably why the judge was mad.

I am not sure what you mean, Was the judge angry at the defense for allowing stormy to put herself in a bad light?

And yet, the defence did not object to this.

This is a half truth.
She said she hated D Trump. That half is true

She didn't say she wanted him to go to jail
She said
"If he’s found guilty, yes," Stormy Daniels said.

Presumably, if he's not found guilty then she doesn't want him to go to jail.

I'd say that many USA folk want law breakers, Financial fraudsters to go to jail.

I’m pretty sure that her former professional career was known, being bespoken of “questionable morals” probably wasn’t a high priority.

Objection!

It was about saying things not relevant or that would be prejudicial about Trump. It's not mentioned here, other than the judge objected to some comments, but he actually had some statements stricken from the record. So he's doing the defenses job for them. He doesn't want a possible conviction overturned on appeal.

More Trump allies expected to demonstrate fealty to him in court throughout duration of trial​

Some of Trump’s allies in the Senate have already made the trip to New York to show their support. That includes Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance and Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville who are in court today. Florida Sen. Rick Scott accompanied Trump last week.

New York Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall and Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird are also in court today

Former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy will join Trump at court tomorrow, a spokesperson for Ramaswamy tells CNN.

Two weeks ago, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton made the trip to show his support.
