Bimbo Hush Money is now illegal campaign contribution???

That's what NPR was telling me this morning.  That $130,000 hush money that Trump's lawyer[s] paid "Stormy Daniels"  is an illegal campaign contribution and the special prosecutor should investigate.  Somehow this does not compute.  Campaign contributions are money given to a candidate.  Hush money given to a bimbo is distasteful, and a PR disaster, but I don't think it is a campaign contribution.  But good old NPR can find lawyers to say anything they want said.  NPR is part of the deep state trying to push Trump out of the presidency. I am so glad my tax money goes to subsidize NPR.
