Cohen told the newspaper the payment was legal, and he declined to give details such as why he made it. "Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford, and neither reimbursed me for the payment, either directly or indirectly," Cohen said, according to the Times. "The payment to Ms. Clifford was lawful, and was not a campaign contribution or a campaign expenditure by anyone." Trump, through his lawyers, and Clifford, 38, have both denied anything ever went on between them.
