ABC News reports:
Trump’s defense team has moved for a mistrial over Stormy Daniels’ testimony. “We move for a mistrial based on the testimony this morning,” defense attorney Todd Blanche said following the lunch break.
“The guardrails by this witness answering questions by the government were just thrown to the side,” Blanche said. “There is no remedy that we can fashion … to unring this bell,” Blanche said about the impact of Daniels’ testimony.
Blanche argued the prosecutors wanted to embarrass Trump and inflame the jury and was far afield from a case about falsification of business records. “She talked about a consensual encounter with President Trump that she was trying to sell,” Blanche said. “We heard a completely different story.”

Trump’s motion for a mistrial isn’t a serious motion. But it’s what good lawyers do–preserving the potential error when it’s denied to argue it on appeal. Trump is represented by competent lawyers in this case who are giving him a good defense.

From afar, I would be surprised if Trump’s lawyers don’t move for a mistrial when Stormy Daniels is off the stand, given the level of detail Daniels went into that even seemed to bother the judge — and even after he warned prosecutors to steer clear.

Trump’s lawyer moved for a mistrial based on Stormy making editorial comments with her testimony. The judge denied the motion, and said something that won’t make Trump happy – that Blanche should’ve objected more & he would’ve stopped her. But he didn’t. https://t.co/RGsvnVdx1i
