This week, Donald Trump will become the first former president to stand trial on criminal charges. In October 2016, Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen paid Stormy Daniels $130,000 in hush money to cover up their affair. Cohen admitted under oath that Trump requested the payments directly.
“Not only is Trump’s hush money case another reminder of the corruption, controversy, and complete chaos that engulfed each day of Trump’s first term in office, but it’s also a reminder of the character of Donald Trump. He’s a misogynist who cheated on his wife just four months after the birth of their son and tried to cover it all up by writing a check. Trump thinks he is above the law and can’t be held accountable, but now he’ll have to sit in a courtroom and be tried for his abhorrent behavior,” said American Bridge 21st Century Presidential Campaigns Communications Director Brandon Weathersby.
