Rode does provide his reasons for why Stormy Daniels' testimony is not credible and when her testimony is inconsistent with comments that made earlier. While Stormy was able to establish a connection that she was in the same hotel room with Trump, most of the salacious testimony is irrelevant and that the prosecutors should focus on the fraudulent documents instead.

and the doubts that would be raised if he was sitting on a jury. I think that most of his doubts were based upon the first day of testimony which may have lead to him to dismiss the second day of testimony.

He is foolish to dismiss the second day.

Usually he is right on.

prior to her testimony. Since Stormy did not know how the financial payments were structured between Cohen, Pecker, and Trump it meant that her testimony did not provide information about the actual crimes committed, but only provides a reason why they were committed.

then when she saw he was running for president, she shopped around to make money off it

now she's claiming she felt trapped, scared even? it's just a way to keep the story going to make even more money

Stormy and Trump are very much alike.......they're both disgusting grifters.

I may not think highly of her choices or her means of self-promotion, I just don't equivocate what she does with the effect and disaster that DT had/has on this country and the world, in service to his hubris, narcissism and greed. Graft/grift is when you claim to be soliciting something for a reason and do so with the intention of profiting from a lie. Stormy may sell herself, but she does so honestly.

when that POS was running for prez, she could have gone public with what a sleazeball he is, banging a hooker while his wife was pregnant - but no, she decided to shake him down for a big payoff

SHE IS AS DISGUSTING AS TRUMP

There has been no indication Stormy had sex with him more than once.

The same applies for day 2, but the transcript had not been released prior to Rode recorded this video.

All Stormy was needed for was to present a logical reason for the documents. In the end, what is a jury member to do with signed checks? Being spanked and not using a condom are not evidence. Signed checks while in the White House doing the "people's work" are!
