Former FEC Chairman To Mark Levin: Stormy Daniels Money Cannot Be In Kind Campaign Contribution

Former Trump attorney, Michael Cohen to federal judge: "Guilty your honor"

Which proves exactly nothing.

Of course, it proves it was in fact, a crime.

It proves no such thing, dumbass.

One can only plead to a crime, dope

A parking ticket can be considered a crime.

Fucking moron.... a parking ticket is not a felony.

 

[Faun]

Just as long as they report it. Did Trump report the payments on his campaign finances?

It wasn't a campaign expenditure, so he isn't required to report it.

A candidate can donate as much of his own funds as we wants, dumbass.

It would be a donation as you suggested, dope and subject to reporting requirements.

You are dumb as shit, son.

Wrong, shit for brains. Read the OP.

Read your own post, dope.

A candidate can donate as much of his own funds as we wants, dumbass.

It wasn't a donation, shit for brains.

Of course it was. There was no reason other than the election to pay Stormy Daniels to stay quiet.

 

[Faun]

He's not there to determine guilt... the fucking defendant is PLEADING GUILTY. The judge was there to make sure it was a crime he was pleading to and that he knew what he was pleading to.

Every thread I see you post in, you say dumber shit than the time before. I'm not even sure how that is possible anymore.

Wrong. That is NOT the judge's job. If a defendant is going to plea guilty the judges job is to ensure he is of sound mind and to sentence him. Determining whether a crime is committed is the job of the JURY.

I didn't say he was there to make sure he was guilty. I said... the judge is there to make sure it was a crime he was pleading guilty to and to make sure he knew what he was pleading to and to explain it.

Reading comprehension is important.

Wrong again. You said hes there to make sure it was a crime. Again that is NOT HIS JOB. I mean the DA can't make up a charge, you can't plea to something that doesn't exist but that's not the judge's job. I don't know what you think you meant when you said "make sure it was a crime" make sure WHAT was a crime? What the guy did? NOT THE JUDGES JOB. That's the jury. If it wasn't a crime then he would be found NOT GUILTY.

If it wasn’t a crime, he wouldn’t have pled guilty.

Says who? There is a statute about campaign expenditures. The problem is that neither Trump no Cohen violated it.

Cohen said he violated it, the Southern District of New York says Cohen violated it. That is all that really matters, everything is just opinion and holds no actual value.

Wrong. Neither of those facts matter. They prove nothing other than that Cohen agreed to a plea bargain. If I agreed to a contract that said there are unicorns on Mars, would that prove there are unicorns on Mars?

They prove nothing other than that Cohen agreed to a plea bargain

No. They prove that Cohen admitted guilt to specific, felonious campaign finance violations.

No, it only proves that Cohen agreed to the plea. There's nothing "felonious" about the violation. If it was felonious, then why aren't both Clinton and Obama in prison?

LOLOL

Fucking moron, it’s hysterical watching someone as dumb as you act as though you know anything about law. Shit, a cereal box is too complex for you.



It’s not a felony if a candidate inadvertently misses reporting some campaign contributions, as was the case with Obama.

It IS a felony if someone willfully and intentionally violates campaign finance laws.

And Cohen pled guilty to two felony counts regarding campaign finance laws for willfully violating them.

You try to cover up your idiocy with your vicious insults, but it doesn't work. It doesn't matter what Cohen plead to as far as Trump is concerned. His plea is not admissible in any other courtroom. You would know that if you weren't so desperate to find something on Trump.

Cohen admitted he committed a felony at trump’s direction. That implicates trump. Should trump be indicted on a related charge, Cohen would likely be called to testify. That would be admissible.

$1.8M > $130K

Obabble paid a $345K fine for a $1.8M campaign funding violation. And it involved real campaign donations, not spending his own money.

Obama 2008 campaign fined $375,000

The snowflakes insist that paying Stormy to shut her pie hole is a campaign contribution. Here's the final word on the subject. Only sheer idiocy would cause anyone to continue claiming that the snowflake theory is valid.

Former FEC Chairman To Mark Levin: Stormy Daniels Money Cannot Be In Kind Campaign Contribution​

Law Professor and former FEC chairman Bradley Smith spoke with conservative radio host Mark Levin on Tuesday. He laid out the reason why the payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels from President Trump’s private attorney Michael Cohen could not be an in-kind campaign contribution.

“Here’s the bottom line,” Smith told Levin. “The purpose of those laws is to prevent corruption and one way campaign contributions or in-kind campaign contributions are different than bribes is that you have to use them to get elected. You can’t use them to buy yourself grandfather clocks or fur coats or Rolex watches or something like that.”

He said, “And the FEC standard for that is you can’t use your campaign money for personal use. What they mean by that is you can’t use that for something you’d have to pay anyway that’s not directly for your campaign. The question is, ‘is this really a campaign obligation?’”

Professor Smith continued, “None of these expenditures helped Mr. Trump’s campaign. There’s all kinds of reasons why he may want to make these expenditures even if the allegations made by Stormy Daniels are untrue. Just for family harmony, commercial viability over the long term.”

He emphasized, “Historically, the FEC has said these things are not campaign contributions.”

Professor Smith added, “When the FEC wrote the regulation that says what constitutes campaign expenditures and what constitutes personal use, it rejected specifically the idea that a campaign expenditure was anything related to a campaign, and instead says it has to be something that exists only because of the campaign and solely for that reason.”​

Mark Levin....

What a fool Cohen is pleading guilty to no crime

It's not even possible to do so, dope.
Charges must be filed before a plea can be entered.

Well you need to talk to the prosecutor then. I can’t help stupid
