(Previously written text:)

12/8/18 update. (Note: What follows briefly touches upon one aspect of the 12/7/18 court filings:) What if your town's mayor....or your senator....or any other President of the United States(/major party presidential nominee)... was accused of the following? (..By federal prosecutors.) What would you (generally) think of that person? (..'Innocent' until (able to be) convicted in a court of law; yes..)

Remember, ↓this is about "hush money" paid - in essence - to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. (I.e., by paying off those who were involved/might talk.) TRUMP DIRECTED THESE PAYMENTS (according to the Justice Dept.). (Excerpt: Emphasis added:)

"...The Justice Department stopped short of accusing Trump of directly committing a crime. Instead, they said in a court filing Friday night that Trump told his former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, to make illegal payments to buy the silence of two women — porn actress Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal — who claimed to have had affairs with Trump and threatened his White House bid. Trump has denied having an affair."
