President Donald Trump denied using campaign funds as hush money for women who alleged past affairs with him, a day after federal prosecutors claimed some campaign officials were aware of the payments.
Trump told Fox News on Wednesday that he only learned of the payments “later on.” His statement contradicts a guilty plea Tuesday by Michael Cohen -- his longtime personal attorney and fixer -- who said Trump directed him to make the payments and that they violated campaign finance laws.
