If candidate Trump used his own money to pay off these scumbag broads, there is no violation.
And the president denies having sex with either one of these two sluts.
I’m not sure, but I do think Trump reimbursed Cohen for the money paid to Stormy Daniels. According to the article, Karen McDougal was paid by the National Inquirer, which Cohen promised to repay, but never did. In that case the allegation will be that Trump used Cohen to solicit an unreported and illegal campaign contribution from the Enquirer.
I agree. And if he used Campaign Funds to do so, then I’m guessing that’s a crime. And if Cohen used the funds to do so and Trump just reimbursed Cohen, then that seems murkier to me.
Either way, I don’t see this being an impeachable offense and even if it were - I don’t see Trump being convicted by the Senate.
The other thing is this - and it’s only my “sense” - people are already tiring of this thing dragging out. With the holidays coming, it will go well into the beginning of next year. Tons of money has been spent. Will voters be sick of this when the time comes for Dems to decide whether or not to impeach? I think they will be if they aren’t already.
I think pushing this to impeachment is the wrong move for house Dems and what’s more, I think they know it. So they’re hoping for the moon here. The ULTIMATE smoking gone. And when they don’t get it, they’ll drop it or formally reprimand/censure or something. And we’ll have spent 10s of millions of dollars for nothing.
There’s no Russian collusion. No evidence that even a single vote was changed. Trump didn’t need to cheat to beat Hillary. She was universally hated.
So we’ll have spent 10s of millions to find out that a married man who wanted to be President paid a whore to stay quiet about banging her.
News at 11? I don’t think so....
