“He’s being charged with attempting to cover up the payment IN FURTHERANCE OF A FELONY. The felony? Unlawfully influencing an election - AN ELECTION THAT HAD ALREADY OCCURRED at the time the entry was made. Educate yourself.”
The payment to Stormy was made in October of 2016. Before the election. Remember that Cohen recorded his conversations with Trump.

Right. And that’s totally irrelevant. Trump’s not being charged for making that payment because there’s nothing illegal about making the payment. Non-disclosure agreements happen all the time and they’re perfectly legal. He’s being charged with falsifying a record in 2017 in order to unlawfully influence an election THAT TOOK PLACE THE PREVIOUS YEAR.
