Former adult film actress Stormy Daniels threw a jab at former President Donald Trump following her hush money testimony in New York this week. Trump’s legal team attempted to amend Trump’s gag order, which the judge ruled that he had violated 10 times, so the former president could respond to Daniels’ testimony.

His legal team claimed that since she had already testified, she could not be intimidated, which could’ve impacted the trial had she not already been on the stand. Trump’s legal team also said Daniels revealed too much information about her alleged affair with Trump. Judge Juan Merchan denied their attempt to declare a mistrial.

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, explained the alleged affair in great detail on the stand. Daniels gave graphic details of her and Trump’s encounters, including the clothing they wore, lack of condom use and sexual position. The explicit nature of her testimony drew objections from the defense, which Merchan sustained.

Daniels claimed, “[Trump] said I reminded him of his daughter because she’s smart and blonde,” referring to Ivanka Trump.

On Thursday, Daniels posted to social media platform X, taking a jab at Trump. “Real men respond to testimony by being sworn in and taking the stand in court. Oh . . . wait. Nevermind,” she wrote.

Susan Necheles, Trump’s only female attorney, tried to discredit Daniels’ testimony, claiming she had changed her story about the alleged affair. Necheles also called out Daniels for profiting off of the case. Daniels released a documentary about the affair on the streaming platform Peacock, Stormy. Trump continues to deny any involvement with Daniels.
