Stormy Daniels has dramatically broken her silence on ex-US president Donald Trump in the wake of his being found guilty of 34 criminal charges last week – and now you can watch the full world exclusive interview she gave to The Mirror.

Speaking for the first time since White House hopeful Trump was convicted, the former adult actress told our US reporter Chris Bucktin: "I think he should be sentenced to jail and some community service working for the less fortunate, or being the volunteer punching bag at a women's shelter."

Stormy told how she now feels vindicated - and warns the world as Trump bids for office: "He is completely and utterly out of touch with reality."

Ever since stepping down from the witness box in the former president’s hush money criminal trial, Stormy has remained in hiding, refusing to talk. But after testifying as a key witness leading to the conviction of the world’s once most powerful man, the 45-year-old said that, despite how justice has been served, she will never escape the death threats from Trump’s supporters.

At the heart of Trump’s conviction was a $130,000 (£102,000) payment made to Stormy by Trump’s then-lawyer, Michael Cohen. It was to ensure she remained silent in the days leading up to the 2016 US election about the alleged sex she had with the businessman at a celebrity golf tournament 10 years earlier.

The jury found that Cohen and Trump, 77, later falsified business records to cover up the reimbursement of the payment to the lawyer. During the trial’s closing arguments, prosecutor Joshua Steinglass told the jury that paying to silence Stormy could have “very well” been what “got President Trump elected.”

Trump won the 2016 election by beating Hillary Clinton, winning by razor-thin margins in six states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, which had not voted Republican since the 1980s. If Clinton, who Trump campaigned against with the slogan "Lock her up", had won those states, she would have sealed the presidency.
