Trump's former attorney Michael Cohen took the stand today as the prosecution’s key witness in the former president’s hush money criminal trial.
Prosecutors allege Trump falsified business records to cover up his reimbursement to Cohen in the amount of $130,000 paid to adult film star Stormy Daniels for her silence about an alleged sexual affair with Trump.

He was running for president but Stormy telling about their affair scared him so he paid her to shut her up and he asked Cohen to pay her and he would pay him back. How they covered it up and why is the problem.

It's not illegal - it's been going on since time began - this is a kangaroo trial and will be overturned on appeal. For example: Cohen said Trump didn't care about Melania, he cared about the campaign. *THAT* is speculation inside the mind of Trump but the judge allowed it. Ridiculous nonsense.
