Cohen: Trump 'wasn't thinking about Melania,' only about the campaign
Michael Cohen testified that Donald Trump was so consumed with the suppression of Stormy Daniels' story that he wasn't focused on his relationship with wife Melania, but only his campaign.
“He wasn’t thinking about Melania. This was all about the campaign," Cohen testified.
Trump's head turned in the direction of Cohen, where he shook his head and had a sly smile on his face.

Trump told Cohen to 'take care' of Stormy Daniels story: testimony
Michael Cohen testified that when he first learned about Stormy Daniels' story in 2011, he knocked on Trump's door demanding to speak with the former president — who instructed him to "take care of it."
"After I received the information from Dylan Howard, I immediately went to Mr. Trump's office, knocked on the door. "Boss, I gotta speak to you," Cohen said.
Cohen said he learned about the story when he worked with Keith Davidson, Stormy's attorney, to get thedirty.com to remove a blog blog about the alleged affair.
According to Cohen: "I told him that one of the things that we need to do is obviously take care of it. He said, 'Absolutely. Do it, take care of it.'"
