Stormy Daniels thinks there’s a ‘strong possibility’ Trump will have her tried for treason if elected
Having testified against Donald Trump in his criminal hush money trial, Stormy Daniels says she believes there is a “strong possibility” that the former president will have her tried for treason if he is re-elected in November.
Daniels, the adult film star, director, equestrian, and stand-up comic, spoke with Rolling Stone about her life since the trial that saw Trump convicted on 34 counts of concealing hush money payments to her.
Indeed, it was testimony from Daniels that likely helped convince a New York jury to find the former president guilty of falsifying business records and other charges.
Her story emerged into the public realm in 2018 when she came forward with an allegation that she had been in a romantic extramarital relationship with the president in 2006, after which she was threatened and later bribed to stay silent.
However, 18 years after their first encounter at a celebrity golf tournament, and six years after coming forward with her story, Daniels took the stand, having arrived at court in a bulletproof vest. Less than a month later, Trump became the first criminally indicted, then convicted, former president in US history.
But what happened to Daniels next?
According to her attorney, she was “very emotional” after the verdict. Later, speaking to the Sunday Mirror, she said: “I think he should be sentenced to jail and some community service working for the less fortunate or being the volunteer punching bag at a women’s shelter.”
She, who has recieved countless death threats since the verdict, added: “It’s not over for me. It’s never going to be over for me. Trump may be guilty, but I still have to live with the legacy.”
