I still haven’t heard what the payment “should” have been classified as if it wasn’t a “legal expense”
"Blackmail/extortion" payment. Although, I don't think the accounting system has an entry for that, and legal is the closest.
It's rarely mentioned that time was a factor... If Stormy and Avenatti had made this play several months earlier, or several months later (after the election), it would have had no value. Trump had to put this off in the heat of the election, whether it was truth or fiction or who gives a damn. The trial should be against Stormy and Avenatti for extortion.
I wonder how the NDA PAYOFFS for all those congress folks was recorded in government finance reports.
Cohen was his lawyer doing legal work on his own in hopes to be part of Trump admin.
Yes, I have no clue how it should have been recorded.
