CNN reporter Manu Raju: “You’ve been very the clear about your disdain for the hush money case, but what about the underlying alleged conduct of paying off a porn star to keep this extramarital affair quiet?

They’re clearly going after President Trump because of who he is. They’ve had him tied up for weeks in a courthouse when he should be out, have the ability to speak freely in the campaign and to be around the country. This is clearly by design.”
