This wasn't her seeking justice for herself. She was standing up for herself early on and saying what was right, but this whole hush money trial has really it's not her story,
Blade explained to CNN's Erin Burnett.I mean, it's nice that the jury saw the facts and made the decision, and of course, we support that either way; if they saw it differently, we would have supported either way. But I think it does help with the fact that she feels, you know, a little vindicated that, you know, she was telling the truth,
he added.
Former President Trump was found guilty of all 34 counts of falsifying business records, making him the first former U.S. president to become a convicted felon. The charges revolve around reimbursements to his ex-fixer, Michael Cohen, for a hush money payment made to Daniels to keep quiet about an alleged affair with Trump.
She's still pretty stoic. I think she's really it's a big weight off her shoulders at this point,
Blade said. But and like I said, I think it brings another weight upon her shoulders of what happens next? What is the next wave of lack of a better word crap that's going to happen?
he continued. So, I guess we take it day by day.
During the hush money trial, Daniels testified while wearing a bulletproof vest up until she entered the courthouse earlier this month. Her lawyer told CNN Daniels was

with fear over potential backlash from her testimony.In her testimony, Daniels provided detailed and somewhat risque accounts of the alleged sexual encounter she had with Trump in 2006. Trump has consistently denied the affair.
Trump is set to be sentenced on July 11, just four days before the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. Although he could face jail time, first-time offenders on charges like Trump's are rarely incarcerated.
