Fox News’ Andrew Napolitano says that despite what Rudy Giuliani may claim, there’s no way President Trump had no idea that he reimbursed Michael Cohen without knowing it was because of Stormy Daniels.

Giuliani gave an explosive interview to Sean Hannity last night where he said that Trump repaid Cohen for the $130,000 of hush money he paid so that Daniels would keep quiet about her relationship with the president. Trump previously claimed that he never knew about the Daniels payoff, and Giuliani backpedaled by making it clear that’s what he meant.

When Napolitano joined Fox & Friends to break this all down, he scolded Giuliani for his calls to shut down Robert Mueller‘s special counsel investigation. The judge also poured cold water on the notion of Trump being in the dark on Daniels.

“If Rudy wants the public to believe that Donald Trump reimbursed Michael Cohen $130,000 and didn’t know what it was for, didn’t know that it was going to silence Stormy Daniels, that is unworthy of belief. It is hard to believe that Donald Trump, a man who knows where every one of his nickels has gone.”

While Napolitano suggested Cohen might be fine if Trump paid him with his personal funds, it still puts Trump in a predicament on truth and morality. Ainsley Earhardt took the news to mean that it’s a personal embarrassment for Trump, even if its not a felony.

Later in an appearance on Fox & Friends, Giuliani said that the $130k payment was close to “pocket change” for Trump.
