So the charges and confession by Cohen literally show that payments from the Trump campaign came from their private funds to replenish the retainer agreement.
Yet they still try to argue its campaign finance violations. At what point will this oversensationalized bullshit end? What are they going to nab Trump on? "HOW DARE YOU HAVE A LAWYER! THATS INFLUENCING!"
Bump bitches. We have the actual document here.
Look, we both know that without having made that payment Trump would have lost the election. Hell, he probably wouldn't carried Idaho without that payment.
This is also what I am not getting. $135k is ass wiping money to Trump. There is no way he would use campaign funds to pay this whore to STFU. Either Cohen is a retard and did it without Trump's knowledge, OR he is making it up, OR he did it on purpose for "insurance" to get out of all HIS (Cohen's) various crimes by throwing Trump under the bus.
It doesn't matter, he probably pays off a dozen every year just so he doesn't have to deal with the legal fees. 300K is pocket change for him.
The money came out of his personal funds to reimburse his lawyer, which everyone with a lawyer has to do. It's called a fucking retainer agreement. No campaign funds were used, so this is overinflated drama. Again.
wouldnt have mattered still doesnt
Cohen is covering his own ass but it's his lawyer whose trying to utilize this for a spotlight.
huh? remember the grab em by the pussy tape? that was much worse than getting caught fucking a playmate. it would not have changed anything you queer
cohen worked with clinton and the democrats to tape trump. cohen is now blackmailing trump with the threat of further tape releases. cohen has made a false statement under oath because trump wouldn't play ball. trump called cohen's bluff, and cohen is going down fighting.
interesting thoughts. if i was a sjw faggot id say "there's a lot to unpack here!"
So basically Trump is the guy I always thought he was? I would still vote for him again.
>scandal!
>Rich man bangs hot women
>pays them off to not talk about it
>Women talk about it anyway
I hope Trump sues them to get his money back.
oh dude please, do you actually believe Cohen made the payments "just because"?
obviously Trump told him to do it
now the question is if there is Trump of this or not
>Trump
*proof
sorry, sleepy
It's not illegal to pay a whore to shut up and go away. Ask Bill Clinton.
Trumps going to get off the hook.
it isn't obvious that trump told anybody to do anything. what's obvious is that cohen claims, under oath, that trump told him to do so.
it is illegal if it can be successfully presented as an attempt to "influence the election" which it obviously was (to prevent the hookers from going public). did the payments happen before Trump announced his candidacy? I think not
now, if the payments were campaigned related, they should have been declared as such.
Cohen made the payments with his own money so everything seems to be done correctly, everything would be fine had Cohen not flipped, and he's obviously flipping because of the other dirt they got on him. it's looking kinda ogra
more or less what I said. the payments happened. there's a tape where Trump and Cohen are apparently discussing it, but it's inconclusive evidence. now the question is whether Cohen or anyone else has more proof. it IS pretty obvious Trump made the order. if there's proof, Trump is fucked, if there's no proof, this is literally nothing
Pretty much
Dems lost track of their own narrative.
>it is illegal if it can be successfully presented as an attempt to "influence the election" which it obviously was
That would mean every paid endorsement, ever, would count as well. Anytime a celebrity pops up. A commercial that exceeds 2700 in costs to run. You are literally trying to argue that a campaign can not attempt to influence an election. That election campaigns, cant campaign. You are a dumbass.
Think before you type.
>it is illegal if it can be successfully presented as an attempt to "influence the election"
Americans influencing an American election isn't illegal. Collusion and foreign influence on an American election is. I don't expect someone from Belgiym to know that.
>Reimbursement happened after Trump left
That's all they have on him? A reimbursement that didn't happen when Trump was there? Dems are becoming crazier by the day
>You can't spend money to influence the election
Are they just twisting the word of the law just to get to Trump at this point?
What the fuck are ads?
payments to influence an election are A-OK as long as they are declared as such. you're the one that has to put that little brain to work pal.
>Americans influencing an American election isn't illegal
from what I understand from this whole situation, it is illegal for a candidate to make any money transaction related to the campaign without reporting it.
>Executive 1 and 2 are Trump's sons
Oh shit
was that made to look as unreadable and schizophrenic as possible on purpose?
>it is illegal for a candidate to make any money transaction related to the campaign without reporting it.
Which didn't happen.
>Executive 1 and 2
Really activates my almonds
It will end Jan 20 2025 when Trump is term limited out of office.
or when someone shoots those faggots.
No crime, cohen didn't even commit a crime, he just plead to it on a deal for leniency on his actual personal crimes.
You couldn't be more wrong. He would have won if he had had an orgy or some shit. Nobody cares, people want the government to wake the fuck up. Removing Trump won't do shit, if he is gone the sentiment will remain. What is it going to take for those people to realize how much they are hated?
