Tense conversations continue between Willis and Ashley Merchant, the attorney for Trump's co-defendant who filed this case.
When Merchant asks if the only way to compensate Nathan Wade for trips is in cash, Willis replies: “Don't be nice to me.”
She goes on to say that she only gave Wade money “a few times in her life” and never wrote him a check.
Merchant is trying to prove that, aside from her testimony, Willis has no written proof of reimbursing Wade for payments he made on her behalf — but Willis' legal team disputes that the questions are becoming increasingly irrelevant.
There's a lot of focus on money and who paid for what, because Trump's co-defendant wants to show that Willis benefited financially from her relationship with Wade, whom she hired.
