After all the testimony in Trump's hush money case, the effect on the public has been zero. Voters simply just don't care that much. They are far more tuned into news about inflation, immigration, etc. than Trump's trials.

Trump Trial Hasn't Moved the Needle ... At All

There was an old joke on SNL during the Chevy Chase era on 'Weekend Update' that went something like this: "Polling shows that nobody's listening and nobody cares." Only 42% of CNN poll respondents are bothering to follow this trial, and we can probably guess that the Venn diagram of that subset and Biden supporters come close to a full circle.
The other 58% don't care about it, and most of them probably don't care because they view it as an illegitimate attempt to interfere in an American national elections by state and local Democrat-activist prosecutors. And they would be entirely correct in that assessment.
