proof?Sure there is. He paid a porn star to help him with his campaign by not speaking publicly about their affair — but then he never reported it to the FEC.there's no evidence Trump violated campaign finance lawsIf Mueller didn't have evidence that the hush money came from campaign funds, there would have been no case to present to the grand jury. Cohen would not have pled guilty.Cohen has pled guilty of circumventing election law and testified that payment was with the knowledge of and coordination with Trump. So it seems pretty clear that it was a campaign expense. I guess you can argue that it was a charitable contribution but whose going to believe it.They are calling it a contribution due to the nature of the payment.
Money was never paid to the campaign.
Money wasn't spent on a campaign expense.
IT was hidden and never reported,
Money not given to a campaign or spent on a campaign was never reported as a campaign contribution or a campaign expense. Obviously.
Trump said he knew nothing about it, which he lied about.
That's awful!
The prosecutors are calling it a felony.
Excellent! post the law.

She wasn't paid with campaign funds.

Not clear at all.
