Pay Out Woes
The hush money issue was a big thing for Trump and his allies. It showed no signs of letting up in any hurry.
Furthermore it looked as if it could become more of an issue, with Mueller even looking into its significance.
This was one of the reasons that Cohen’s office was raided by FBI in April 2018.
The payment was such a significant issue that Giuliani tried to vindicate Trump by saying Cohen was repaid.
This however made the situation worse as questions were raised as to where the money came from and if Trump lied about the payment.
He had said earlier that he didn’t know that Cohen made such a payment, but now that could be proven to be false.
Giuliani’s interview with Sean Hannity could prove worse for Trump. Did he make the wrong decision by hiring Giuliani? His revelations on the Fox show were startling to say the least.
“He didn’t know about the specifics of it as far as I know,” Mr. Giuliani said. “But he did know about the general arrangement that Michael would take care of things like this.”
Laura Ingraham followed that interview and was awe struck at what transpired.
She said “I love Rudy, but they better have an explanation for that. That’s a problem.”
