Former President Donald Trump has launched a verbal assault on MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell after O’Donnell attended the hush money trial against Trump in New York City. Trump, taking to his social media platform Truth Social, labeled O’Donnell as “a real loser” who appears “like shit.” In a subsequent post, Trump denounced “NBC FAKE NEWS,” declaring it “one of the worst in the business!!!” During the trial, adult film star Stormy Daniels testified about her alleged sexual encounter with Trump in 2006 and the payment she received to keep the affair secret. Trump denies Daniels’ allegations, but his attorneys’ motion for a mistrial during her testimony was rejected. Prosecutors allege that Trump paid Daniels to silence her during his 2016 presidential campaign. Following Trump’s criticism on Truth Social, O’Donnell attempted to mock Trump on live TV by likening Daniels to “a modest nun.” O’Donnell emphasized the presence of both Trump and Daniels in the courtroom and described Daniels’ attire and demeanor during her testimony. “She entered wearing all black as if on her way to a funeral…the loose-fitting plain black clothing draping from her shoulders to her toes suggested the modesty of a nun,” O’Donnell said. He also commented on Daniels’ minimal makeup and long blonde hair, comparing her appearance to that of “other moms in her neighborhood might look when shopping at the local grocery store.” O’Donnell’s remarks drew criticism on social media, with some users questioning the intelligence of MSNBC viewers. Trump has consistently criticized NBC and its affiliated networks, accusing them of broadcasting “treason.” He is currently facing trial in New York on charges of falsifying business documents to conceal the hush money payment made to Daniels.
