Follow the (Stormy) Money

From an astute observer on Twitter (re-tweeted by Seth Abramson):

Something I'd love to see a reporter ask Trump Org about:

1) Cohen formed EC LLC on Oct 17 2016
2) The contract provided for EC LLC to pay Stormy $130K by Oct 27 2016
3) Between Oct 17 & Oct 25, the Trump campaign made payments to Trump Org properties that add up to $129,999.72.

If we really had a media that cared, they would look into this. I have not heard a single thing about this story though.

That's got to be quite a man who will screw around and then charge the "entry fee" to someone else. He can't even pay for hiw own jollies? What a jerk.

Cohen has committed a felony, and trump has committed crimes. Plus they'll probably find out he deducted it as a business deduction, so we probably paid for some of it.
