He also declared that, as she lost, Ms Daniels must pay Trump’s legal fees.
However, Ms Daniels’ lawyer indicated they intend to appeal the decision.
Ms Daniels, whose given name is Stephanie Clifford, is an adult film actress who claims to have had an affair with the President in 2006 and says she was later threatened to keep quiet about the relationship.
She alleged a man approached her in a Las Vegas car park in 2011 and threatened her after she agreed to talk about her experience with Trump in an interview.
Trump and his team countered Ms Daniels’ accusations by claiming her story was a fabrication.

He said: “A sketch years later about a nonexistent man.
“A total con job, playing the fake news media for fools, but they know it!”
Ms Daniels then brought a lawsuit against the President claiming he had defamed her by calling her a liar.
Federal District Judge S James Otero in Los Angeles indicated last month he was unsure of the claim on First Amendment grounds and has concluded the same in this court ruling.
He wrote: “The court agrees with Mr Trump’s argument because the tweet in question constitutes ‘rhetorical hyperbole’ normally associated with politics and public discourse in the United States.
“The First Amendment protects this type of rhetorical statement.”
Yesterday’s decision was a relief to Trump’s elated attorney Charles Harbour, who cheered the ruling.
The lawyer said the exact amount of legal fees owed would be determined later.
He added: “No amount of spin or commentary by Stormy Daniels or her lawyer, Mr Avenatti, can truthfully characterise today’s ruling in any way other than total victory for President Trump and total defeat of Stormy Daniels.”
Ms Daniels’ lawyer Michael Avenatti raised a national profile from his public battle with Trump and is even considering a 2020 presidential bid.
He branded the ruling “limited” and said it will not affect her primary case against Trump and his former attorney Michael Cohen, which seeks to invalidate her 2016 nondisclosure agreement.
Mr Cohen paid Ms Daniels $130,000 in “hush-money”, but claimed he paid this out of his own funds and Trump has no knowledge of the exchange.
Mr Cohen later pled guilty to eight charges, including one related to the scandal, and stated under oath that he paid Ms Daniels “in coordination with and at the direction of a candidate for federal office”.
Ms Daniels lawyer, Mr Avenatti said: “Daniels’ other claims against Trump and Cohen proceed unaffected.
“Trump’s contrary claims are as deceptive as his claims about the inauguration attendance.
“We will appeal the dismissal of the defamation case of action and are confident in a reversal.”
