Trump Company Comptroller Testifies He Alone Determined to Classify Cohen Payment as “Legal Expense” Never Had Conversation with President Trump About It


In a normally functioning democracy (constitutional republic), the testimony today by Trump corporate comptroller Jeff McConney would end the ridiculous “hush money” case.  McConney testified he alone was the one who instructed the accounting department to classify payments to Michael Cohen as “legal expenses.”

This entire premise of the silly NY City case against Donald Trump is predicated on the claim candidate Trump had the payments classified as legal expenses to hide the hush money payment.  If Trump didn’t determine the classification, the case should collapse.  Alas, we all know what this Lawfare is really about.
