On the witness stand Thursday, Stormy Daniels was cross-examined by the prosecution about trying to profit off her notoriety.
“When Trump was indicted in this case, you celebrated on Twitter by repeatedly tweeting and pushing merchandise you were selling in your store right?” said defense attorney Susan Necheles according to CNN.

“That was you shilling your merchandise, right?” Necheles asks.
Daniels was quick to return fire. “Not unlike Mr. Trump,” she said.
Under oath, Daniels spoke the truth.
