And that’s if you believe a word out of Cohen


Most likely scenario: Cohen pays Daniels to make the story go away and bills Trump for legal fees and processing without ever speaking to Trump about the details.

I don’t understand. You realize the payment to Stormy isn’t illegal right? So why is this bombshell testimony again?

From that statement, Trump did not want her to be paid at all. Cohen said Trump's statement was if he won, the story wasn't relevant, and if he lost, he did not care anyway. Ultimately, she was paid before the election against Trump's wishes.

This was my first thought as well. How did paying her influence the election if she wasn't to be paid until after the election or nor at all?

Two of the prosecutions own witnesses contradicted that last week. They are down 1-2 in the top of the ninth and Trumps team still has an at bat. Good luck putting all your hopes in Cohen though lol.

That’s why I posted it, if the payment was delayed till after the election how was that to interfere in the election.

Still yet to see a crime in any of this, except of course for the election interference in the 2024 Presidential race.

Translation:

Cohen sees the hand-writing on the wall, this trial will end with an acquittal, or at minimum, reversal on appeal. Cohen will once again see the man he HATES win again.

So he is throwing as much shite against the wall as possible in hopes to try to make Trump miserable by causing a rift between Melania and Trump.

The man is a con-artist and liar. I do believe Trump told Cohen to "make it go away". I do believe Trump told him that he didn't really care how he made it go away, as long as it was legal. I believe those to be true, because that is what Trump has said and that is what everyone has said from day-one.

It was only after the "Get Trump" movement started that stories started to change. Trump is the only one that has not altered his statements.

Wait, if Trump said to delay payment until after the election, how is that election interference?

Exactly if the whole worry was about the election why would he allow it to sit idle till after the election
