Stormy Daniels Praised For ‘Taking Down’ Donald Trump After Guilty Verdict

Former adult film star Stormy Daniels is receiving praise online for the role she played in the hush money criminal trial which just saw to the conviction of former President Donald Trump.

In a conviction that is considered to be a historic first, Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records. A jury of seven men and six women from New York deliberated for two days before coming to a decision.

Trump has since spoken out on the verdict, branding it a disgrace and implying his intention to appeal the ruling as he has done for previous cases.

Since Trump’s guilty verdict was revealed, netizens took to X, formerly Twitter, to praise former adult film star Daniels, noting how instrumental she was in the hush money trial.

Daniels, who had received the $130,000 hush money for which Trump has now been convicted after falsifying business records, took to the stand during the trial on two occasions to testify.

As expected, Daniels’ testimony was filled with scandalous details about her sexual encounter with the ex-president, which many believe helped put the nail in the coffin of Trump’s criminal case.

“The utter catharsis of StormyDaniels taking down Trump after getting slut-shamed on the witness stand,” Laura Bassett, a columnist for The Cut, wrote on X.

Another X account said, “Donald Trump wanted StormyDaniels to f–k him. She f–ked him alright,” alluding to the outcome of the hush money trial.

A third person joked, “StormyDaniels!!!!! Thanks for taking one (inch) for the team!”

“StormyDaniels. The savior of America,” a fourth person proclaimed.

One more X user said, “It must be said that StormyDaniels is a f–king icon: funny, unapologetic, and now a woman who helped convict former President Toadstool. SLAY.”

Before the guilty verdict was revealed, Daniels claimed that she was the subject of increased death threats from emboldened Trump supporters who did not bother to hide their identities.

“Back in 2018, there was stuff like ‘liar,’ ‘slut,’ ‘gold digger.’ This time around, it’s different. It is direct threats. It is ‘I’m going to come to your house to slit your throat,'” Daniels said in the documentary, per The Mirror.

Daniels added that “they’re not even using bot accounts” to threaten her; “they’re using their real accounts.”

“I compare them to suicide bombers,” she stated. “They legitimately think that what they’re doing is right. Those people who see me as a villain. It just makes me scratch my head and really question how they would want their daughters treated, or their sisters, or their mother.”

She also read out some examples of the unpleasant messages she’d received from her critics.

One stated, “Even if you’d have been raped, you should have kept your mouth quiet for the greater good,” as another text read, “You’re nothing but a fat hillbilly, Trump would never touch you, stop lying, before I’m forced to shut you up myself.”

On Thursday, May 30, the jury in Trump’s hush money trial found him guilty of all 34 counts of falsifying business records to hide payments made to former adult film star Daniels.

The jury pronounced the verdict after deliberating for only two days. The hush money trial was filled with dramatic moments, including multiple outbursts from the presumptive Republican presidential nominee about the gag order placed on him at the start of the criminal trial.

The jury’s shocking verdict makes Trump the first president in history to be convicted of a crime.

Trump’s sentencing hearing is now set for 10 am, July 11, 2024. He faces up to four years in prison, but as a first-time offender, the billionaire mogul might be given a lighter sentence, which could include a fine and probation.

Trump was very vocal in his condemnation of the guilty verdict in his hush money trial, claiming it was orchestrated by President Joe Biden to “hurt” him.

“Our whole country is being rigged right now,” Trump stated after the trial. “This was done by the Biden administration in order to wound, to hurt an opponent. A political opponent.”

He added, “And I think it’s just a disgrace, and we’ll keep fighting, we’ll fight till the end, and we’ll win because our country has gone to hell. We don’t have the same country anymore, we have a divided mess.”

Still, in his statement, the ex-president emphasized that Judge Juan Merchan should never have been allowed to preside over the historic criminal trial, branding him “conflicted.”

Trump said, “We are a nation in decline, serious decline of people pouring into our country right now. From prisons and mental institutions. Terrorists, and they’re taking over our country.”

He noted, “We have a country that’s in big trouble, but this was a rigged decision right from day one, with a conflicted judge who should have never been allowed to try this case. Never!”

The 77-year-old concluded his statement: “We will fight for our constitution. This is far from over. Thank you very much.”
