Cohen took out a fraudulent mortgage using overvalued taxi tokens and laundered the money to Daniels through front companies. This is what he went to jail for. Why would he do this if he was getting the money through the retainer. Were his retainer payments ever adjusted to accomodate these payments? Nobody has ever shown evidence of such.

When we get to the end of the road here we are going to find out that Trump never had an affair with this two bit hooker, he never knew a thing about any so called hush payments and Cohen was either a mole from his hiring date and was activated to set Trump up or the affair was between Cohen and Daniels and he was hiding it from his wife.
