SCHEDULES: Will Stormy Daniels hush money case be Trump’s 1st criminal trial?

The prosecution has to prove that Trump intentionally broke a felonious federal election law. In other words, the prosecutors must prove that Trump illegally paid hush money to Stormy Daniels to cover up crimes under federal election law, which would make it a conspiracy to illegally promote a candidate and a New York state felony.

How did he illegally pay hush money?

I don't know where that quote is from, if it's a quote, but that's not true.

In the New York Case FPOTUS#45 is charged with violation of New York State business law in attempting to aid or hide criminal activity. NOT that he had to have committed the criminal activity.

The criminal activity was committed by Cohen, he pled guilty and went to prison. FPOTUS#45 illegal activity in attempting to hide how the money was paid is the basis of the case.

The case is NOT that he paid Stormy for boinking her in Vegas while his wife was at home having just given birth to his son.

From the article in the OP.

FPOTUS#45 illegal activity in attempting to hide how the money was paid is the basis of the case.

How did he try to hide it?
 

By having his attorney pay stormy out of his own funds, then pay the attorney back, will invoices that lied about what the repayment was for.

When you pay off a hooker, do you have to take out an ad in the newspaper?
Run a commercial on CNN?

What is the proper way to pay one off? Does the check have to be from your personal account?
"For services rendered", in the memo field?

The defendant, in the County of New York and elsewhere, on or about February 14, 2017, with intent to defraud and intent to commit another crime and aid and conceal the commission thereof, made and caused a false entry in the business records of an enterprise, to wit, an entry in the Detail General Ledger for the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust, bearing voucher number 842460, and kept and maintained by the Trump Organization

Who did he intend to defraud?

The checks to pay Cohen were issued through the Trump Organization. They were invoiced and paid as attorney fees, which are tax deductable. However such invoices were fraudulent as they were not attorney fee's.

They were reimbursement for paying for the NDA with Daniels, however the cost of the NDA is not tax deductible. Cohen committed and much later pled guilty to a federal crime, FPOTUS#45 falsified business records (willful intent) to aid and conceal Cohen's illegal activities. In so doing, his own actions were illegal.

Now, if FPOTUS#45 had just paid for the NDA directly there would have been no crime, then had Cohen made the arrangements, there would have been no crime. However in attempt to conceal it it resulted in illegal activity by both Cohen and FPOTUS#45.

Payments for NDAs are tax-deductible.

They were concealed because he was running for President, which also potentially violates federal campaign laws. Oops

Not when they are personal in nature.

Now, a payment made by DOW Chemical to a Chemical Engineer to maintain confidential company information about a process? Sure. That is a business expense.

Paying a Porn star for an NDA that you boinked her in Vegas while your wife was at home having just given birth to your son? Not so much.

Yes...

But New York can't charge federal campaign violations against FPOTUS#45. The Fed's did charge Cohen, which is the underlying crime. New York has no jurisdiction to charge federal law, but they DO have jurisdiction to charge New York State business law where records were falsified to hide Cohens actions.
