WATCH: Trump On Paying Daniels: It Came From Me, Not The Campaign

In an interview with “Fox & Friends” co-host Ainsley Earhardt released Thursday, President Trump addressed the D.C.-shaking guilty plea by his former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen. The $280,000 in “hush money” payments to former Playmate Karen McDougal and porn star Stormy Daniels, he said, came from him, not his campaign.

Asked if he knew about the payments from Cohen to the women alleging past sexual affairs with him, Trump told Earhardt, “Later on I knew.”
