too funny here is what trumps present lawyer said in 2018, that there is no way acohen did not tell Trump, ie does not pass the smell test. hahahaha they have the videos of him professing it... this may have been when he and his firm were going to represent Stormy at the get go.

| Quote: | The Daily Beast reported that Tacopina had referred to the hush money scheme as "illegal" in a 2018 interview with CNN.
"It's an illegal agreement. It's a fraud, if that's, in fact, the case," Tacopina said. "It doesn't pass the straight-face test, and quite frankly, if that is what happened, we have a potential campaign finance issue." |

Resurfaced video shows Giuliani blowing apart Trump’s new ‘evidence’ in Stormy Daniels case
| Quote: |
A resurfaced Fox News clip shows former New York City Mayor and Trump personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani blowing apart the former president’s supposed new evidence in the Stormy Daniels hush money case.
Mr Giuliani complicated Donald Trump’s defence in May 2018 when he appeared on Fox News admitting that Mr Trump was aware of the payments to women who claimed that they had had affairs with him.
He said at the time that Mr Trump “did know the general arrangement” and that his attorney and fixer Michael Cohen was reimbursed for paying off Stormy Daniels with funds being “funnelled” through a law firm.
Mr Cohen is now one of his former boss’s staunchest critics.
Mr Trump rejected this notion at the time, saying that Mr Giuliani “started yesterday. He’ll get his facts straight”.
Lawyer Ron Filipkowski shared the clip of Mr Giuliani from 2018 on Thursday.
“I’d like to call, as a surprise witness for the prosecution, 2018 Rudy Giuliani, who BURIES Trump’s defense,” Mr Filipkowski tweeted.
“They funnelled it through a law firm, then the president repaid it,” Mr Giuliani said at the time. “When I heard Cohen’s retainer while he was doing no work, I said, ‘that’s how (Trump’s) repaying it.’”
Mr Trump is now arguing that a 2018 letter from Mr Cohen’s lawyer, which didn’t stop Cohen from being charged for making illegal campaign contributions to the 2016 Trump campaign, shows that he’s not guilty in connection to the Manhattan DA’s investigation into those same payments.
Mr Trump took to Truth Social to share the letter from February 2018, which Mr Cohen’s lawyer at the time sent to the Federal Election Commission, saying that Mr Cohen using a $130,000 Home Equity Line of Credit to pay Ms Daniels, a porn actor, to remain silent regarding a 2006 affair she claims to have had with Mr Trump was a “private transaction” using Mr Cohen’s “own money”.
Ms Daniels’s real name is Stephanie Clifford.
“Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford, and neither reimbursed Mr Cohen for the payment directly or indirectly,” lawyer Stephen Ryan wrote at the time.
On that, Sir, having, having, having something to do with
Mr Trump said the letter was “totally exculpatory” and that the DA probe “must end”. Mr Trump may have falsified business records when he reportedly reimbursed Mr Cohen and logged the expense as a legal fee.
But the Department of Justice did indict Mr Cohen, meaning the letter wasn’t “exculpatory” in the end, as Mr Trump claims.
Mr Cohen was indicted for making an illegal campaign contribution and conspiring to violate campaign finance laws. He said in court that he made the payment on Mr Trump’s behalf and on his instruction.
The former fixer has shared evidence showing that Mr Trump and his firm paid him back, meaning that it wasn’t a “private transaction” |

Resurfaced clip from Trump interview seems to undermine his Stormy Daniels defence
| Quote: |
Seems like Trump’s story has changed since 2018 when he was asked about the payments in the Stormy case: “They weren’t taken out of campaign finance - that’s a big thing. They didn’t come out of the campaign, they came from me.” |

Official Statement of Stormy Daniels
January 30, 2018
To Whom It May Concern:
Over the past few weeks I have been asked countless times to comment on reports of an alleged sexual relationship I had with Donald Trump many, many, many years ago.
The fact of the matter is that each party to this alleged affair denied its existence in 2006, 20011, 2016, 2017 and now again in 2018. I am not denying this affair because I was paid “hush money” as has been reported in overseas owned tabloids. I am denying this affair because it never happened.
I will have no further comment on this matter. Please feel free to check me out on Instagram at @thestormydaniels.
Thank you,
Stormy Daniels |

If she says it didn’t happen and Trump admits to giving her $130k then I think we should just ignore it because it must not have happened.
Malibu, do you realize how stupid this sounds? The fact is Trump fave her money. He admitted that. Shouldn’t that be investigated? If not..why not? |

Many people settle nuisance lawsuits. Tens of thousands per year. You've got to be smarter than that. |

| You do know that actual lawsuits (settlements) require documentation or court action right? Otherwise, it’s hush money or a bribe. Did Trump 1099 her for services rendered? Lots of ways to pay someone off legally and he didn’t appear to do any of those. |
