Steve, my comment is that Mr. Michael Cohen does not appear to be a man of moral rectitude and honesty. He lied multiple times and he was convicted.
So, when Wikipedia reads:
Cohen said he violated campaign-finance laws at Trump's direction "for the principal purpose of influencing" the 2016 presidential election.
What value has the report of a liar?
I also listened to a podcast with prosecutors on the accountancy minutiae of legal fees, reimbursements, non-disclosure agreements and so on. Mr. Trump also apparently was ill-advised by his attorneys.
All we can say about Mr. Trump is that he didn't exhibit great discrimination in hiring Mr. Cohen.
On the other side, Mr. Trump did exhibit discrimination in refusing to make him chief of staff...
I also read the lengthy Wikipedia voice, I couldn't find many relevant points about alleged crimes from Mr. Trump
