re: So, as as the Cohen and Manafort hysteria dies

only violates campaign finance law if the payments were made to influence an election

not quite... if he failed to report that contribution, that, as well, is a violation of campaign finance laws... this would likely only get him a fine, not an indictment, but still you aren't quite correct with this statement...

Trump could have simply made the payments to prevent his wife from finding about the women which was the defense John Edwards successfully used when charged with the same thing.

this is no doubt part of the reason... but the timing and coordination seem to not jive with just keeping it from Melania... maybe, but it just doesn't look like that was the ONLY reason...

As Lanny Davis himself said all we are left with here is what Cohen said vs what Trump said, without any other evidence to differentiate that the payments were specifically for the campaign it is game, set, match, for Trump once again.

and in comes Pecker.... and unless they absolutely destroyed the stuff in that safe, you'd have to pretty much assume that's in Mueller's hands now, given that Pecker got immunity....

dunno... here's what i do know... the shite that is about to come to light will make this shite seem like 5th page Thursday edition type of stuff.... i'd buckle up because it's about to get fun for everybody...

knew last october that Manafort was going to be convicted. The evidence was overwhelming.

The daily caller hasn't been predicted anything. In the specific article the poster linked, it is a direct qupte from lanny davis.

How hard is it for you to understand that no one gives a frick except people that already hate trump?

You aren’t winning votes with this ridiculous witch hunt. Anyone with half a brain knows that if the government dedicated 1% of the time they are spending digging deep into trump with any of our other politicians they would find even more appalling stories.

Obama committed the largest campaign finance infraction to date and it was barely even a blip in the news headlines. The DNC and GOP are finding oppo research through foreign spies and governments. And this is what we know without a special counsel, immunity promises, and sworn testimonies. Just imagine if Mueller was trying to flip the Clinton’s lawyer.

Please, please impeach Trump over something like this. It’s literally the best thing you could do for conservatives in the long run.

what is the next baseless claim the left will try to tar and feather Trump with?

I hear he is a member of the Hare club for men. A Christian organization dedicated to protecting the secrets of St. Peter Rabbitt.
