"The FBI believed..."

Stop reading right there. The FBI is a branch of the Dem/Antifa party and they believe altogether too much.

Believe and FBI should never be used in the same sentence.

She was attempting to blackmail Trump. How come she has been charged?

Why does it matter to the FBI? Wasn’t it a legal arrangement?

The question is whether Trump was more or less involved than John Edwards was when covering up his love child.

If the FEC testified in court that Edwards had personal, not political, reasons for his payments, then the same standard would apply to Trump over something much less drastic.

The Edwards campaign finance chief Fred Baron said in 2008 that no campaign funds were used to make payments to Reille Hunter. However, at trial the wife of another aide testified that she believed Edwards knew about the hush money.

The bottom line is that Trump is alleged to have had an affair, while Edwards is known to have brought a child into this world. Why was Edwards' payments not illegal but Trump's payments are illegal?

As long as the thugs in the FBI think Clinton and Lynch met on the tarmac to talk about grandchildren I don’t give a damn what they think...

There was nothing illegal about the payments to begin with.

The only crime I can imagine is extortion, and it would be Stormy Daniels and her attorney that might be guilty of that, not Trump and Cohen.

The FBI ain’t shit and are an illegitimate arm of law enforcement.

They can’t even police their own guys, much less Hillary...

I thought Wray was supposed to clean up the FBI, get rid of the "Deep Staters" and get them back to law enforcement, NOT coup d'etats.

Unless I’m missing some nuance portion of the law, paying somebody to shut up isn’t a crime UNLESS the witness was witness to an actual crime. Having an affair isn’t a crime in any of the Fifty states.

This is a nothing burger... again.

Heck, I had to sign an NDA from Facebook when my daughter invited me to go there to visit her during a social hour.

The campaign finance allegations fell apart, so they are turning to more smears.....just like every time they fail to nail Trump.

There was nothing illegal about getting an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) with Stormy and paying her for it.

This was not a campaign finance violation and the matter is settled.

Let’s not give this too much more attention after today.

Let them bring it up again. If it’s being touted as a crime then congress has some explaining to do with the millions in tax payer cash paid out in hush money. And if they don’t disclose who was involved that would be aiding and abetting.
