Original Note:
This is misleading. No, Bill Clinton did not pay "hush money." The payment was a legal settlement of $850,000 that Clinton made to resolve a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by Paula Jones. This was a civil case. Donald Trump falsified business records, which is a crime. https://www.khou.com/article/news/verify/government-verify/bill-clinton-paula-jones-not-hush-money-but-public-settlement-trump-indictment/536-72d4a595-853a-40bd-acd9-b646c9950f80 https://apnews.com/article/trump-trial-deliberations-jury-testimony-verdict-85558c6d08efb434d05b694364470aa0
