An election watchdog group has asked the Federal Election Commission to look into possible violations by the Trump campaign concerning the $130,000 payoff to porn star Stormy Daniels.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) has flagged a Trump campaign reimbursement filing that sent $130,888.33 in campaign funds to a limited liability corporation called Trump Tower Commercial. The filing claims that the Trump campaign was reimbursing the LLC for “rent,” although it does not describe exactly what properties were rented out for campaign use.
(Well, when one pays for sex one might ask if the customer is buying or “renting,” but the question remains “who paid the fare for the affair”?)
President Trump is accused of paying $130,000 in hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels to hide an affair a month before the election. In what is probably just a coincidence, the Trump campaign transferred $130K to the Trump businesses a month after the election. pic.twitter.com/KKknIC9ClC

We can only hope the FEC can get to the (allegedly-spanked) bottom of this soon.
