Trump Is Still Paying Hush Money -- to His Loyal Bean-Counter

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : Trump returned home Monday evening to the 31,000-square-foot penthouse that is really 11,000 square feet on the 68th floor that is really the 58th floor.
53% : Trump had to wait until the end of the day.
47% : Five have been made, so Trump is still on the hook for three more.
44% : But the fact is that Trump is currently paying hush money to someone else -- perfectly legally.
43% : Trump has had difficulty adhering to such orders and at times seems almost determined to talk himself into becoming Weisselberg's bunkmate.
41% : He stuck to that when he was asked during the Trump Organization's civil bank-fraud case how Trump came to claim his penthouse is nearly three times its actual size.
41% : Trump descended from a residence that is on the 58th floor of Trump Tower -- not the 68th, as he has claimed -- and arrived by motorcade for the start of jury selection.
38% : The 74-year-old Weisselberg remained hushed in an 11-by-13 foot cell in the West Facility at Rikers Island yesterday morning as Trump set off from the 11,000-square-foot penthouse he tried to pass off in loan negotiations as a mere 31,000 square feet.
32% : While he was definitely the center of attention at Monday's jury selection at his own trial, Trump did not seem terribly engaged.
31% : Trump did appear fully awake when the prosecution complained that he had violated a gag order barring him from making public comments about figures in the trial.
26% : In return, Weisselberg agreed not to "induce, encourage, instigate, aid, abet or otherwise cause any other person entity to bring or file a complaint, charge, lawsuit or other proceeding" against Trump or anyone associated with his company.
17% : A jury will decide whether Donald Trump is guilty of faking business records to cover up hush money payments to a porn star.
11% : Trump himself had ducked jury service for nearly a decade until August 2015, when he was running for president against Hillary Clinton.
