As news of former President Donald Trump's reported indictment broke on Fox News on Thursday, it seems audible gasps could be heard in the studio as reporter Sandra Smith read the report on air.
Contrary to Watters' claims about the case, the Manhattan district attorney's investigation actually revolved around how the $130,000 payment to Daniels — allegedly made to keep her from speaking about a purported affair the two had — was recorded by the Trump campaign. Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, made the payment to Daniels and was reimbursed by Trump's campaign, which recorded it as a legal expense.
Falsifying business records is normally considered a misdemeanor in New York, but the charge can be elevated to a felony if it is shown that records were falsified to cover up a crime.Many in the right-wing orbit have argued that Trump's being arrested would actually guarantee that he'll win the Republican nomination for president, which he's seeking, in next year's contest.
