Trump has been offered the opportunity to testify before a grand jury regarding his 2016 hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels
Cohen admitted to prosecutors that, on Trump’s orders, he had paid off two women who had affairs with the former president in order to avoid a potential scandal in the run-up to the 2016 election.
Manhattan’s District Attorney Alvin Bragg announced in November of 2022 that the years-long investigation into the would be shifting its focus to its original protagonist: Trump himself. The investigation honed on allegations that the payment given to Daniels was a violation of election and business record laws. sources close to the former president advised him that his best strategy avoid an indictment is to insist that the payments were not made in order to prevent electoral fallout—but to keep the peace at home and avoid conflict with Melania Trump.
The possibility of federal charges against Trump hinges on prosecutors’ ability to prove that the reimbursement received from the former president after he made the payment to Daniels was effectively a cover-up of an illegal campaign contribution.
