Twitter is incorrect. What Federal crime? Why hasn't Trump been arrested?

1. Federal Campaign finance laws? Using campaign money or in kind donations to pay off stormy

2. Current “policy” that sitting presidents can’t be indicted, and this also *just* happened.

Plea didn't say Trump used campaign money

What else could the campaign finance violation be?

It was worded in a squirrelly manner. There was no judge nor jury. It's words, nothing else.

What are you even talking about? Yes, when someone pleads guilty, they don't need a trial by judge or jury. You go straight to sentencing.

He pled to lesser charges. Now do you think that would have been allowed if they had something huge on Trump? No. You are allowed to influence a campaign. You are not allowed to break the law. Prove Trump broke the law please.

WTF are you blathering on about? Nothing in Cohens plea deal prevents Mueller from bringing additional charges— larger or smaller— at any time he damn well pleases.

What do you mean by “lesser charges”? Lesser than homicide but greater than speeding?

Please, leave the law to lawyers.

He pled right?

Oh, my God. You are not allowed to spend money to "influence a campaign," as you so politely refer to the porn star payoff, without reporting it as a campaign expense!!!!

Can you show me that statute please? Isn't blackmail a crime? Can you show me for a fact that campaign funds were used?

Sad.

It’s just mind boggling. Trump’s level of scandals and crimes are an order of magnitude greater than any other President. Yet 40% of the country doesn’t care what crimes he commits, what lies he says and what countries he insults.

It doesn’t matter whether “campaign funds” were used. A month before an election, any money that goes to something like this is subject to campaign finance laws. See John Edwards’ prosecution.

Ha ha. The NYtimes has put together of the times Trump, Sanders and co have “denied all knowledge” of these payments. They lie as easily as I breathe.

Uh, that was the point. Campaign funds were not used. It was off the books money, fronted by Cohen and reimbursed by Trump personally to bypass filings and diclosures and influence a federal election.

It’s hilarious that this is all Mueller could find. Suddenly not a word about Russia interfering in the election- but Michael Cohen interfering in the election.

It's hilarious you are so convinced this is the end. It's likely only the beginning...

Are you implying Mueller prosecuted Cohen at this trial???? Please, tell us more how Mueller's investigation and this trial are one and the same.

There have been plenty of words about “Russia interfering in the election” for those of us who have been paying attention. You may have noticed there were indictments before this.

The President of the United States is implicated in high crimes and misdomeanors.

Will the Congress do a darned thing about it?

[Anonymous]

if Trump weren't president he would be *under indictment right now*. Him being president is the only thing protecting him. And how did Trump become president? We now know he became president partly by committing felonies to cover his bad behavior.
