Stormy Daniels described the tawdry circumstances of her alleged one-night stand with Donald Trump while he sat just feet away in a courtroom.
Porn star Stormy Daniels confronted a dour Donald Trump with salacious details about their alleged tryst in Manhattan court Tuesday — delivering testimony that was so tawdry, even the judge warned her to tone it down.
Jurors in the hush money trial struggled to keep a straight face as the adult film actress — talking fast and gesturing wildly — described spanking the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee with a rolled up magazine that had his face on the cover.
“I took it and turned him around and swatted him,” Daniels, 45, testified, causing at least two jurors to break into a smirk and Trump, 77, to reportedly mouth “That’s bullsh-t” to his lawyers.
Trump appeared to be silently steaming at the defense table, shaking his head when Daniels — born Stephanie Clifford — claimed he’d told her not to “worry” about his wife Melania because the two didn’t “even sleep in the same room.”
Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan later pulled aside Trump’s lawyer Todd Blanche — saying the ex-president was “cursing audibly” and “shaking his head visually,” and warning he needed to quit it or be held in contempt for possibly influencing the jury.
“You need to speak to him. I won’t tolerate that,” Merchan said during a sidebar at the judge’s bench.
Trump’s attorneys raised objections throughout the graphic testimony, with Merchan ruling in their favor several times, including as Daniels gave bawdy details about their alleged sex act.
The judge also scolded prosecutors that the “degree of detail” was “unnecessary” when Daniels described the tiles on the floor of the hotel where she said she’d slept with Trump in 2006 and what subjects the two of them had discussed.
But Merchan sided with prosecutors that Daniels should be allowed to tell jurors about her alleged one-night stand with the real estate mogul — in order to establish her “credibility.”
During testimony that seemed out of “The Jerry Springer Show” Daniels testified that she had “brief” sex with Trump in the “missionary position.”
That drew an objection from Trump’s lawyers, which was sustained as the judge had ruled getting into specifics about the sexual act would be verboten.
