Apparently Cohen cut a deal with federal prosecutors to reduce his sentence for sundry criminal offenses. Cohen plead guilty and said that Donald Trump directed him to pay off various women as “hush money”.
Michael Cohen Says He Arranged Payments to Women at Trump’s Direction
One wonders if Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer can be trusted. Trying to get a reduced sentence might have influenced his decision to say what Democrats wanted to hear. Mueller is a known associate of Trump-hating politicians that has a better career path if he can convict the President of something instead of just saying he couldn’t find a darn thing to lever the President with. CNBC wrote that Michael Cohen plead “guilty on Tuesday to eight counts related to tax fraud, excessive campaign contributions, making false statements to a financial institution, and unlawful corporate contributions at a court hearing in New York on Tuesday.” Ex-Trump lawyer Cohen admits to illegal payments at direction of candidate to influence election
None of those charges included anything about paying hush money to women during the campaign. I wonder if paying money to women so they won’t say they had sex or whatever is illegal? Prostitution is illegal in some states, yet giving women money not to say they had sex regardless of the truth about that, might not be illegal.
If it isn’t illegal for Joe Duck to pay Sally the Slick twenty dollars not to Tweet that she had sex with him because the ladies at church would look down on him while the Sheriff just wouldn’t care, why is it illegal for Joe Duck’s Serious Older Brother who is running for mayor of Pittsville to pay Sally the Slick’s slicker sister 50 dollars of his own money not to tweet and publish on Facebook and buy 10,000 likes an article that says she had sex with Bill the Serious Brother of Joe Duck who is running for mayor?
