Given the Democratic play book, Trump can't win this one. Since he used non-campaign money, they argue the hush money was intended to benefit the campaign and should therefore have been reported as a campaign expense. Had he used campaign funds, they would argue he used campaign funds for a personal matter.mojo84 wrote: Wed Feb 27, 2019 6:12 pm I don't think it is unless he paid with campaign finance money.

Don't look for intellectual consistency. It's not there.
