ctm Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Looks like this campaign finance violation was a serious felony, not just a paper work mistake. Mark another one of Trump's and his sheep's talking points off the list. OILERMAN, Justafan, and Mythos27 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

9 Nines Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) It is going to involve a corporation now: Federal prosecutors said in a filing that the National Enquirer admitted to “working in concert” with the Trump campaign to pay off a woman who said she had an affair with Mr. Trump in order to squash her story, CBS News reports. The company “admitted that its principal purpose in making the payment was to suppress the woman’s story so as to prevent it from influencing the election.” Edited December 12, 2018 by 9 Nines Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is even bigger trouble is that all this bullshit will end up involving fraudulent bank disclosures and transfers to disguise the true nature of the transactions. I.e. bank fraud. And wire fraud. And conspiracy to commit both. OILERMAN, rns90, Mythos27, and 2 others 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it violated security laws for not disclosing it but I do not know what filing requirements for debt are.

Legaltitan Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 This is probably as good a time as any to remind everyone that Michael Cohen was recently serving as the deputy finance chairman of the Republican National Committee.

And if Cohen's lawyers can prove that it was, he will win on appeal since there was no campaign finance violation.

LOL Cohen isn't going up on appeal, he's admitting guilty and going to jail for three years. This is a serious felony, but go ahead and keep telling yourself there is nothing to this.
