Professor Bradley Smith said the payment Cohen pled guilty to DO NOT qualify as campaign violations.
Last night Mark Levin interviewed a former FEC Chairman who explained why a hush money payment to Stormy Daniels cannot be considered an in kind contribution to the Trump campaign, thus violating campaign finance law.
Via The Right Scoop:
“When the FEC wrote the regulation that says what constitutes campaign expenditures and what constitutes personal use, it rejected specifically the idea that a campaign expenditure was anything related to a campaign, and instead says it has to be something that exists only because of the campaign and solely for that reason.”
No wait. They were talking about Hillary Clinton campaign contribution rule interpretations.
Will it matter to the fake news outlets and D’s.
Look at all the trouble John Edwards got into…
What’s that?
Hung jury, never recharged.
Oh…
sadly, Larry understands … there are different rules for demonRats than repubs
How could it be a crime for a billionaire to spend his money any way he pleases?
That Stormy ho wasn’t hired for the campaign.
She was paid to shut her B-J mouth and go away.
Next time a hit-man may be a better financial expenditure.
Too many lawyers (therefore judges too) are leftist democrats.
I spit on their ‘laws’
Paying a whore to shut her filthy whore mouth is not “making a campaign contribution to interfere with an election”.
Seriously? This dumber than Lionel Hutz shitbird was a practicing attorney? The same guy who went around recording his clients?
Trump has not covered himself in glory by surrounding himself with the Cohens, Manaforts and Omarosas.
If there is one thing rich people hate, it’s attorneys fees. This is why you pay to get a good one.
Truth/facts are mere hindrances to the politically driven. They have no concern who they destroy in the process.
Today’s Grand Slam isn’t particularly geared toward punishing the accused. It’s meant to tarnish Trump in the eyes of his base, as well as send a chilling message to everyone associated with him…. “we could come for you next”.
The government would NEVER allow one of their own to charge someone with a “crime” that doesn’t even exist! Let alone allow the peasant to plead “guilty”… to something that isn’t even a crime. That’s not the rule of law!
Surprised to see this on RS. When did rightscoop have their “come to Trump” moment?
Isn’t anybody gonna ask the obvious question?
So based on this then the payments made by the FBI to Steele are campaign donations to Hillary.
