Robert Costello: Michael Cohen Told Me Trump Had No Knowledge of Hush Money

‘He didn’t mention Donald Trump’s name’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

COSTELLO: "Well, here’s what he did. He said he did this on his own. He didn’t mention Donald Trump’s name. He said there was a problem, Stormy Daniels' lawyer or representative got in touch with him. He worked out a negotiated deal, got an NDA, a nondisclosure agreement, $130,000. I asked him, I said, 'Is that Donald Trump’s money?' 'No.' 'Did you get that from any Trump organization?' 'No.' 'Is that your money? Did you take it out of one of your accounts?' 'No.' I said, 'Where did you get the money from?' He said, 'I took out a HELOC loan.' I said, 'Why would you do that?' He said, 'Because I wanted everything to be secret. I did not want my own wife to know about this. I didn’t want Melania to know about this.' That’s what he said. He said if he had taken $130,000 out of one of his accounts, he wife would have been pumping him for information that he didn't want to give to anybody.
