"If campaign money was not used it was not a campaign finance violation. It was a private contract between two parties. "

Try explaining that to the (at least) 50% of uneducated sheeple that vote (D).

Let's see what the actual, details are re:

"admits to making illegal payments at direction of candidate to influence election"

“admits to making illegal payments”

The payments were illegal? I’d like to see the cite for that. So, now anyone who carves out a special non disclosure deal with some prostitute to not have their ten year ago fling made public is doing something illegal! Wow. If this is such a bad thing, how will this compare to getting BJs in the oval office and lying under oath about it by a sitting president. Oh, not so much.

Let’s hope. Didn’t the Omorosa tape with Lara Trump indicate that they were going to pay Omorosa from small dollar donors? That did not sound good.

If Gen. Flynn pleads guilty to lying when he didn't lie (because he can't afford the legal expenses to fight the accusations, and to stop them from going after his son), then Cohen can agree to plead guilty to an illegal contribution which wasn't really illegal, in order to stave off more serious charges.

One of the impeachable offenses is bribery. If the Democrats regain the House in the 2018 election, maybe they will make bribery (hush money paid to Stormy Daniels or the other woman) one of the articles of impeachment.

Generally speaking...wouldn’t ALL payments in such a time frame (political campaign) by a candidate be to ‘influence’ the election?

Some of this silly crap is just that...crap.

We are closing in on CW-2. Time to choose sides, folks.
