But would she go along? Probably not, b/c she already said it was Donald Trump BUT maybe it was DJT, JR. & not POTUS that Cohen was protecting & paying Daniels off for her silence. That would not have been something they would want to come out during the campaign. Just thinking outloud here.
The article does NOT say or indicate that Cohen knew anything ahead of time. It simply said that he texted his friend to get out of the building. Need a lot more info to determine any more.
