President-elect Donald Trump has received a major setback from the court. The court has rejected Trump's petition to cancel his sentence in the Hush Money case. Before Manhattan Judge Juan M. Marchin, Trump's veels argued that continuing the case would hamper Trump's ability as president. He won't be able to run the government well.
Trump had a sexual relationship with adult star Stormy Daniels in 2006. The matter was in discussion during the 2016 presidential election. Stormi was threatening to make the incident public. On this, Trump paid him secretly. Trump is guilty of falsifying business records to conceal a $130,000 payment to Daniels.
Earlier, Stormy Daniels told the court that she wore silk trousers when she saw Trump for the first time. "Trump asked me about my career in the adult industry," Daniels said. I was asked if I had been tested for sexually transmitted disease.
