      That is crazy. To begin with if it is campaign related, it would be an unreported loan to the campaign from Cohen. Then it would be an unreported expenditure.https://twitter.com/pbump/status/991855353242451968 …

      Whoaaaaa. Giuliani says that Trump repaid Cohen the $130,000 personally so no campaign finance violation.

      It also could implicate problems with fraud in relation to the reasons for the home equity loan, but that's outside my area.

      If the campaign is paying Cohen's legal fees now, on grounds that the Stormy Daniels issue is campaign related, then it is harder to argue that the initial payment (in the heat of the campaign) was also not campaign related.

      It's not impossible to make the argument that it was personal before the election when it was private, but now it is a campaign issue for Trump 2020 campaign. But that seems weak given the timing.

      This lends credence to the idea that they sent Giuliani to get ahead of this story, rather than Giuliani speaking out of schoolhttps://twitter.com/costareports/status/991883505033342977 …

      Giuliani tells me he just spoke w / POTUS. Tonight by phone. President "very pleased," Giuliani says. He says they discussed his revelation of the reimbursements long in advance. Does not expect to be fired. Insists his remarks on FNC were approved by Trump. Story TK.

      Here's a bit from FEC guidance on the need to report loans and repayments in FEC reports: https://transition.fec.gov/rad/candidates/documents/CanGuide91013-104.pdf …pic.twitter.com/qcMzKno5jY

          If we didn't have rules on loans and reporting, people could just give excessive contributions to campaigns, not report them, and then forgive them, effectively getting around campaign contribution limits.

          I don't think this bit in this @maggieNYT story is correct. My @Slate piece explains why Trump is in WORSE, not BETTER, shape on the campaign finance front with these revelations: https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/05/rudy-giuliani-may-have-just-implicated-president-trump-in-serious-campaign-finance-violations.html …pic.twitter.com/lqC2jJNMte

          Replying to @rickhasen

          If campaign finance laws were enforced then the millions of dollars mismarked by HFA to Perkins Coi would be an issue. Alas, that's being ignored.

          DT claimed while running that he was financing his campaign. I later heard he only contributed about $1M? Do you know more?
