I didnt follow Trump's lawyer Cohen's criminal conviction.
I know he was convicted of a few Trump related crimes and ties to Russia, but wasnt Stormy Daniel's and campaign funding a centre of his controversy?
Anyone know if/how Cohen may coincide with this case?
Cohen was convicted of mortgage and bank fraud that he committed on behalf of Trump to secure a loan to make the hush money payments himself.
The whole purpose was so Trump could avoid having to declare these payments as a campaign expense as would have been required by law at the time. If the payment came from Cohen direct, Trump wouldn't have to declare the campaign expense.
They seemed to be operating under the false belief at the time that Trump supporters actually cared that he cheated on his wife to fuck hookers and it needed to be covered up.
The whole thing just illustrates how willing and ordinary it was for Trump to engage in fraud to get what he wants from a bank. And despite knowing all of this Trump supports still want to vote for him making the entire conspiracy fucking retarded to begin with.
