Cohen has said that Trump was aware of the payments. In one instance, he recorded Trump giving him advice about how to buy McDougal’s story from the parent company of the National Enquirer. It isn’t clear from that recording, or other evidence made public, whether Trump and Cohen ever specifically discussed whether the payments were legal. Cohen and prosecutors say the Trump Organization reimbursed Cohen for a $130,000 payment to Daniels.
