Start of #TrumpTrial testimony day3 (I’m not counting jury selection or off days) 🧵
#Tabloid Publisher #DavidPecker to Resume Testimony
#Pecker, the longtime publisher of The #NationalEnquirer, is expected to return to the stand & describe the #HushMoney deal w/ #StormyDaniels at the heart of the case, in which #Trump is charged w/ 34 #felonies.

Hours before court was set to begin today, #Trump made a campaign stop at a construction site in Manhattan, where he was asked about David #Pecker’s testimony & their relationship. “David’s been very nice," Trump said. "He’s a nice guy.”
(He was nice, but his testimony has been seriously damning to Trump)
Trump was also asked whether he would pay fines if Justice #Merchan found that he had violated the #GagOrder imposed on him by the court. “Oh, I have no idea,” he said.
As #Trump’s motorcade arrived at court just before 9 a.m., a group of a few dozen people demonstrating against him blocked traffic. They stretched a banner across Centre Street that read “No One Is Above the Law.” They sang out, “Trump is not above the law.” Police monitored, & the demonstration was orderly.
