NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump’s defense attorney accused Stormy Daniels of slowly altering the details of an alleged 2006 sexual encounter with Trump. Attorney Susan Necheles is trying to persuade the jury in Trump’s hush money trial that the key prosecution witness cannot be believed. But Trump’s case doesn’t rise or fall on Daniels’ account. It’s a trial about money changing hands in business transactions and whether those hush money payments were made to illegally influence the 2016 election. Trump is charged with 34 counts of falsifying internal Trump Organization business records.
