‘Nobody should be untouchable’: Stormy Daniels reacts to Trump’s court appearance

Piers Morgan’s interview with adult film star Stormy Daniels on TalkTV in the UK has wrapped up with Daniels advising Donald Trump to tell the truth.

The presenter said his conversation with Daniels on Piers Morgan Uncensored, was “one of the best interviews [he’s] ever done”. She revealed she feels sorry for Mr Trump, gets suicide bomb-style threats, and would rather go to jail than pay him money connected to their defamation case.

Originally scheduled for last week, the interview was postponed at the last minute due to “security reasons”.

Daniels made headlines in 2018 when she came forward with an allegation that she had been in a romantic extramarital relationship with the president in 2006, and had been threatened and later bribed to stay quiet.

The former president was arrested this week as part of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s grand jury investigation into a $130,000 hush money payment he is accused of making to Daniels 2016 via his then-lawyer Michael Cohen, in exchange for her silence.

Mr Trump has denied the accusations and insisted the money was paid to Mr Cohen to cover unrelated legal expenses.
