Trump Denies He Directed Michael Cohen to Pay Off Women: I Found Out ‘Later On’
by Aidan McLaughlin | Aug 22nd, 2018, 1:42 pm
President Donald Trump denied that he knew about payments his former lawyer Michael Cohen made to women alleging affairs in an interview released Wednesday, claiming he only found out about the payments “later on.”
Fox & Friends host Ainsley Earhardt sat down for an exclusive interview with the president in the wake of Cohen pleading guilty to campaign-finance violations and other charges. Cohen implicated the president in the crimes, stating Trump directed him to payoff the women — porn star Stormy Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal — during the 2016 campaign.
In the interview, set to air in full Thursday morning, Earhardt asked Trump: “Did you know about the payments?”
“Later on I knew,” Trump replied. “Later on.” Curiously, Trump went on to claim that the money for the payments “did not come out of the campaign,” so did not violate campaign finance laws, but “came from me.”

Trump Says ’80 Percent’ of News Media is ‘Enemy of the People’
by Ken Meyer | Aug 22nd, 2018, 2:24 pm
During a previewed portion of his interview with Fox News’ Ainsley Earhardt, President Donald Trump elaborated on how just much of the political press he considers the “enemy of the people.”
SPOILER ALERT: Most of it.
When asked if the press is the enemy of the people, Trump answered “no, not at all, but the fake news is, and the fake news is comprised of – it’s a lot – it’s a big chunk. Somebody said what’s the chunk? I said 80 percent. It’s a lot. If I do something well, it’s not reported other than in the 20 percent.”
That’s a 10 percent decrease from the 90 percent of the media Trump was trashing about a month ago.

Trump Says Hush Money Payments to Women Came From Him, Not Campaign
by Aidan McLaughlin | Aug 22nd, 2018, 2:21 pm
President Donald Trump denied that the hush money payments to women arranged by his lawyer Michael Cohen came from his 2016 campaign, claiming they instead came from himself.
Fox & Friends host Ainsley Earhardt sat down for an exclusive interview with the president in the wake of Cohen implicating the president in crimes, stating Trump directed him to payoff the women — porn star Stormy Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal — during the 2016 campaign. Cohen pleaded guilty to campaign-finance violations as a result of those payments.
In the interview, set to air in full Thursday morning, Trump claimed that he only found out about the payments later on. That’s in contradiction to Cohen’s statement in court, as well as the recording released by Cohen that shows Trump speaking about the payments in September 2016.
“Later on I knew,” Trump said on Fox & Friends. “Later on.”
Trump then claimed that the money for the payments “did not come out of the campaign,” so did not violate campaign finance laws, but “came from me.”

if he ever decided to shut it, he would do himself a favor, but him being a narcissist that works in our favor. 
Maybe he thinks that was "John Barron's" or "David Dennison's" voice?
Let there be tapes.
You're on tape, you orange blob of slug slime!
