As the trial of Donald Trump for allegedly paying Stormy Daniels for her silence comes to a close, Daniels’ husband, Barrett Blade, is expressing deep concern about their future in the United States.
In a recent CNN appearance, Blade revealed that if Trump is acquitted, the couple may consider leaving the country, citing fears for their safety and well-being. This sentiment is rooted in the intense scrutiny and hatred Daniels has faced from Trump’s followers, which Blade believes will only intensify if Trump is found not guilty.
Daniels took the stand last week, delivering graphic testimony about her alleged 2006 encounter with Trump. While Blade acknowledged that Daniels was relieved to have completed her court appearance, he emphasized that the couple’s worries are far from over.
If Trump is found guilty, Daniels will still face backlash from his supporters, who Blade believes hold her responsible for the former president’s troubles. On the other hand, an acquittal would likely lead to increased hostility and potentially even violence against the couple.
Blade poignantly expressed his desire for a normal life, free from the constant spotlight and judgment, but fears that this may be an unattainable goal.
Throughout the trial, Trump’s legal team has sought to discredit Daniels by highlighting her career in the adult entertainment industry, a tactic that Blade and many others see as a desperate attempt to deflect attention from the allegations at hand.
