OPINION: If I’m Donald Trump’s lawyer and if a porn star asks for hush money, I would meet her in a parking garage at midnight and hand her gold coins in a bag, BrettArends writes.
Look, if I’m Donald Trump’s lawyer and fixer and he comes to me in 2015 and says he’s going to run for president, the first thing I do is send someone down to 47th Street in Manhattan to buy about $1 million in gold GC00, +0.49% coins.I stick them in the office safe, handling them only with gloves. And if a porn star comes along with an embarrassing story about The Donald and I want to pay her hush money, I meet her in a parking garage at midnight and hand her the payoff in a bag.
Instead, Cohen decided to pay off Stormy Daniels through the regular banking system, leaving a money trail that anyone could follow. Apparently he spent many wasted hours trying to obscure the trail, transferring the money through a shell company, when a simple bag of bullion would have left no trail whatsoever.
Literally the only fingerprints on gold coins are the ones you leave, if you don’t handle them with gloves. Other than that, they’re anonymous.
