The felony is having Cohen do it, even if Trump reimbursed him, this temporary contribution becomes a felony, for Cohen. This is an example of a two people fudging something accidentally, and in reality is more of an innocent mistake. If Trump just went ahead and paid them himself, there would be no felony.

People who are claiming this is a big deal either don't understand the law and what happened here (seems to be a large percentage given the comments) or just simply want Trump to hang for anything and everything that will stick.
So.....Clinton got impeached for getting a bj in office. But trump can try to hide his disgusting affairs using his undersized manhood but it’s no big deal? What planet are you from? Impeach him too.

So, I'm guessing all of Trump supporters are really hating on Cohen, they suddenly don't like him. After being a loyal personal Lawyer to Trump for all those years. We all know that everybody Trumps turns against, they will as well, it never fails. You see that play out here on CD all the time. If Trumps turns against Kellyanne Conway tomorrow, watch how they all do they same and start finding negative things to say.

first you have to prove trump was the one that broke the laws in question, and second these laws are set with civil penalties, so trump pays a fine and is done with them. dont forget that your dear leader chairman maobama also broke campaign finance laws, and he was just hit with a fine, and it was all done quietly to avoid embarrassing him.


the only reason this is a big deal now is because its trump.

Anything negative about Trump usually does that.

the obama campaign fine was for late reporting ( missing a 48hour deadline ). trump's campaign also received fines for the exact same violation.


the trump pay-offs were not reported and actions were taken in both cases to hide the money.

So why was Giuliani all over the media saying that Trump's campaign finance crime was no bid deal? "Nobody got killed, nobody got robbed. This was not a big crime." I guess we need to tell the judge, the prosecutors and Cohen who plead guilty to the campaign finance violation that crimes are not really crimes unless they're what? Big crimes?

You're right. And I'd bet that 99% of us anti-Trumpers are glad that Cohen is getting prison time. He deserves it.
