Nope, sorry. The entire case is based on the payment being a campaign contribution. How the payment was made ~may~ be a misdemeanor, punishable about the same as a parking ticket, unless it was to conceal another crime. Since there is no provable FEC violation, as clearly shown by the FEC rejecting the case outright, there is no other crime to conceal and it becomes glaringly obvious that the only reason it’s in court at all is political gamesmanship.

Now I'm no attorney- and clearly you're not either despite the above comment- but lying and concealing that lie , with another lie, is what got Trump in this pickle. Or got his pickle in this trouble...well you get the idea. Trumps' Pickle got him in trouble.
A grand jury decided that this met the requirements to meet the charges. It will be up to the prosecution to meet the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, and the defense to poke holes. Not the hole that Trump poked, but the concocted story "that a hooker fell on his dick so he paid her money so Melania didn't find out." TOtally normal- happens all the time, the NDA was just to keep it all quiet.
LOL. sure....sure it was.
