Trump has publicly denied that he was named in the files.

I’ll bet $1000 right now that she testifies that Trump played no part in any of the illicit activities. Then, for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with her testimony, she’ll have her sentence commuted or pardoned or overturned or whatever. Not immediately. But sometime not too far into the future.
