AGAIN: unproven, the nature of the payment. It could have been Cohen making the payment completely on his own, as he has stated.
In any case, it's a huge stretch to make that it was somehow a campaign violation. It occurred 11 years before the campaign, and was not a payment made with Trump campaign funds.
It was a rich guy who had sex with a pornstar, and didn't want Stormy Daniels to go public, because he has a wife and children, a situation any number of married well-off men find themselves in. As I recall, Trump and Stormy Daniels met at a golf tournament, that they are both celebrities, and the $130,000 paid was for a business non-disclosure agreement, that is certainly not unheard of in the business or entertainment world, particularly when both are famous. Again, for (if the porn star mercenary can be believed) a consensual one-night liason. Given Trump's lifetime PUBLIC image with women, even admitted in one of his own books, does anyone think an affair would hurt Trump politically, given what Trump voters already knew about him?
You're trying to manufacture smoke where there is no fire, M E M.
Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.
EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
