CNN reporter Kara Scannell, who’s apparently been all over this story, tells CNN what Allen Weisselberg, the CFO of Trump’s organization, told investigators about Trump.
Watch:
According to Scannell, Weisselberg was interviewed several weeks ago by the US Attorney’s Office in Manhattan after he was granted immunity.
Her sources tell her that Weisselberg answered questions about Michael Cohen and payments the Trump organization made to Cohen. One of those, she says, was to reimburse Cohen for the Porny Daniels payment.
Scannell then reveals that Weisselberg hasn’t been called back since, which she said suggests that the investigation was very narrow and not a greater one involving the Trump organization.
In other words he wasn’t there to dish on Trump, as I’m sure CNN and other outlets were hoping. In fact if you listen closely, you can hear the CNN host’s heart drop and hit the floor once Scannell made that revelation. [sce emoji=”laugh”/] [sce emoji=”laugh”/] [sce emoji=”laugh”/]
