And the checks said "Pay off Stormy Daniels" (that's not illegal, by the way)? No they didn't.

But they had eyewitness testimony from the Trump Org comptroller that Trump was the one who signed off on the payment plan to Stormy Daniels. He had contemporaneous notes from that meeting where Trump and Weisselberg and Cohen agreed to the plan, where the payments to Stormy Daniels would be falsely treated as legal fees to Cohen - necessitating the "gross-up" to compensate Cohen for claiming those payments as income on his federal income tax forms rather than their true purpose.

Were you under the impression they didn't have proof that Trump did this? Or that it was just Cohen?
