Paying people off to avoid a scandal is perfectly legal

[bripat9643]

Democrats and the media are just pissing people off with this nonsense.

How are Dems pissing people off? This is a repug investigation. A repug prosecutor appointed by a repug deputy AG is investigating a repug administration. The media is just reporting it.

There's not one Democrat in power that has anything to do w/any of it.

Yet, everything from the Republicans are "THE DEMS ARE EFFING US OVER!?!?!"

#LOLGOP #SMHGOP

"In power" is the key to your claim. They're not in power only because Hillary lost. That's why all you deranged psycho snowflakes are crying so much.

He didn't use campaign funds, moron.

Which is the problem, non-campaign funds were used for a campaign expense.

It wasn't a campaign expense, moron.

Of course it was, which is why half the Trump sheep are arguing that Trump is allowed to give his campaign as much money as he wants.

Of course it wasn't.

Denial is not just a river in Egypt. If you spend money to influence the outcome of the election it is a campaign expense.

Pretty simple

Not true. If you buy a suit to look good on TV, is that a campaign expense?

Well if they can't prove they are innocent, then they play victim.

 

[bripat9643]

Yep he did...

And it went to court... He proved in court that he was keeping it quiet for family reasons... The contributions were not close to an election...

Nice try but Trump can goto court and claim it was to keep his marriage together and be laughed at...

In the Edwards case, the money was not his own. It came from big campaign donors, and it still obviously had an effect on his viability as a candidate in the next election.

Why are you still trying to use that talking point? Trump's payment didn't come out of his own money. It came from his business.

How the Interview I Did with Stormy Daniels for "Trashy" Magazine Might Just Topple a President

--LOL

the left has been reduced to using a whore to get the president

long way from the Russian angle

man oh man you have really got him this time

Just because someone is a porn star doesn't mean they are a whore. The Republicans tried to use an affair with an intern to Impeach Bill Clinton. Tit for tat.

Would the words LEWD, vile, nasty, raunchy, smutty,
obscene, profane, disgusting and lecherous, suit you better?

Of course, if your into pornography,
your comment makes perfect sense...
Can't look down on those starring in porn flicks,
without looking down on those buying the shit to watch

The Republicans tried to use an affair with an intern to Impeach Bill Clinton. Tit for tat.

Oh please, tit for tat my ass!

I'm not even going to bother
weighing the two against each other....

You and your ilk are shining examples of
everything that is wrong, with and in this country!

My ilk? I agreed that Clinton should have been removed from office at the time... FOR LYING UNDER OATH.

Because I'm one of the few people that believe that the President should be held to the highest standard no matter what party they are a part of. I was a Republican at the time, but now today after all these years and the obscene rise of political tribalism, I'm not going to support politicians no matter what they do just because they are a member of a certain party like many of you blind fools do.

Who are you trying to kid? Dim "ethical standards" are only in force when Republicans are in office. Otherwise, anything goes.

Riiiiight, that's why Clinton is one of only 2 Presidents in history to be impeached.

Wow you really have no clue how it works do you? He paid Cohen back as "legal fees" through his business. He didn't pay as campaign funds through his personal account. They aren't even remotely the same.

Can you expound on how they rolled out? Describe what you think the problem is.

No it isn't his damn money. It's not his damn money until he reports it being paid to his personal account from his business. I sure as fuck hope you don't have a business and do your own taxes.

Trump Organization Could Face Criminal Charges From Manhattan D.A.

State charges against the company or its executives could be significant because Mr. Trump has talked about pardoning some of his current or former aides who have faced federal charges. As president, he has no power to pardon people and corporate entities convicted of state crimes.

on Tuesday that he paid Ms. Clifford, better known as Stormy Daniels, to buy her silence during the 2016 campaign. Federal prosecutors have said the reimbursement payments were for sham legal invoices in connection with a nonexistent retainer agreement. Mr. Cohen, who pleaded guilty to federal campaign finance charges, did no legal work in connection with the matter, prosecutors said.

“On its face, it certainly would be problematic,” said one of the officials familiar with the district attorney’s office review, noting that listing the reimbursement as a legal expense could be a felony under state law.
