The payment wasn’t illegal, but the shell company created to hide the payments was the part that got Trump in trouble.
Don’t shoot the messenger- that how I understood it.
RE: the shell company created to hide the payments was the part that got Trump in trouble
1. Is it illegal to create a shell company to hide a payment?
2. Was Trump aware of the creation of the shell company? In other words, did Trump direct Cohen to create the company, or did Cohen do it on his own?
