Trump’s company approved $420,000 in payments to Cohen, relying on ‘sham’ invoices, prosecutors say
President Trump’s real estate company authorized paying $420,000 to lawyer Michael Cohen in his effort to silence women during the presidential campaign and then relied on “sham” invoices from Cohen that concealed the nature of the payments, according to legal filings released Tuesday.
The payments began flowing in February 2017, soon after Trump took office, when Cohen approached Trump Organization executives seeking to be reimbursed for “election-related” expenses, prosecutors said.
"B-b-b-b-b-but Hillary!"
"B-b-b-b-b-but sham invoices are legal! I'm a certified election expert!"
"Look! A rabid Mexican squirrel!"
Is that illegal child?
It demonstrates an attempt to hide the transaction. Which will destroy 'but we did this accidentally and didn't mean to violate the law' claims.
The point is that if it wasn't campaign funds it doesn't matter. It is what it is, you got all excited yesterday for nothing.
Nope. Its an illegal campaign contribution.
One Cohen has admitted Trump instructed him and coordinated with him to make. With audio to back it up.
Nope. You are going to be disappointed....again. The only way it was illegal is if he used CAMPAIGN funds
Then how could have Cohen plead guilty to something you insist wasn't a crime?
