Trump-Stormy Daniels settlement at heart of potential NY DA indictment didn't violate

[PostmodernProphet]

It was a crime according to the actual law. One man who used to be on the FEC can not decide the legality of a campaign contribution.

I wonder if you realize you can't either........

 

[PostmodernProphet]

To exonerate Trump, you would have to believe it was all Cohen's doing.

not true.......you could also believe that Cohen lied to get a plea bargain on his tax fraud sentence.......actually, you would have to be incredibly stupid NOT to believe that.......

 

[PostmodernProphet]

The work or the payments? One is criminal the other is not. Are you dumb.

is paying your lawyer for negotiating a nondisclosure agreement illegal?.......is negotiating a nondisclosure agreement illegal?.....Cohen went to jail for tax fraud.......

 

[PostmodernProphet]

What crime was Hart charged with?

I believe the fact he (or Edwards) wasn't was EL's point......

No, those two things are not illegal. Calling the payments attorney fees on FEC filings is.

He said he was talking about an Edwards contributor. Hart was never accused of anything illegal.

I think there was also an issue of how Cohen was repaid for the money he gave Stormy.

I think we will know more day after tomorrow

Tax fraud and campaign finance violations.

 

[Grokmaster]

Cohen plead guilty to 5 counts of tax evasion, one count of false statements to a bank and two counts of campaign violations.

There was no campaign finance crime. He did whatever the DOJ told him to, including pleaduing guilty to a non-crime.

TAX EVASION is what got him imprisoned.

 

[Flash]

its even more remarkable that all the prosecuting attorneys who've been sitting on this case didn't file any charges until 7 years later......its almost as if they had to wait until they could find someone stupid enough to carry the ball......

It wasn't until Trump threw Cohen to the wolves that he decided to cooperate with prosecutors.

The campaign finance violation was not disclosing the contribution as an effort to influence the election.

He lied to get a plea bargain for lying?

 

[Jarod]

True, that’s why their is very likely more evidence that just Cohens testimony.

Now counselor, doesn't the money have to be tied to the Presidential run to mean anything here? Trump was bigly famous before he ran for President you know. What say you Jarod Esquire?

 

[Trumpet]

Trumpet = Idiot.

You are such a loser

 

[PostmodernProphet]

No, those two things are not illegal. Calling the payments attorney fees on FEC filings is.

as I recall when the FEC examined Hilliary's campaign records and discovered that they had identified the money spent to create the false Russian collusion dossier as attorney fees rather than campaign expenditures they decided not to prosecute but treated it as a civil violation and simply required her campaign to repay the funds.....

 

[PostmodernProphet]

He said he was talking about an Edwards contributor. Hart was never accused of anything illegal.

he corrected that following your catching it, but the question remains the same whether it was Edwards or Hart......

 

[PostmodernProphet]

Tax fraud and campaign finance violations.

the "campaign finance violations" was added as part of the plea bargain so they could get a witness against Trump........there was no secret about that at the time.....

I’m sure that the Fourteenth Amendment, equal protection under the law, will be applied to Trump and he will only have to pay a small fine...not.
