Trump allegedly paid Daniels $130,000 in the middle of the 2016 presidential campaign and ordered her to keep quiet about his affair, with sources telling DailyMail.com his goal was to make sure it didn’t get to his wife Melania.

The Wall Street Journal first reported the existence of the payment on January 12, 2018, just a year into Trump’s presidency. The former president’s personal attorney at the time, Michael Cohen, issued a statement a month later acknowledging the payment for the first time.

Trump supporters and enemies flooded the streets of New York City and around Mar-a-Lago this week arguing for or against his imprisonment.
