You completely missed my point.  Could the money have been paid through the campaign legally?  If not, then it can't be considered a campaign donation.  What I'm basically saying is that it can't be illegal both ways.  Either the legal way to handle it was off the books or on the books.  It can't be neither.

No I do not get your first point. He paid money to Daniel from Trump organization and did not report it.   He accepted payment for Karen from AMI which is another contribution he did not report.  We will see if he had knowledge it was reportable but choose not to in order to conceal the payments.

While I disagree with NightlyPoe on a lot of things, I have to agree with him that you have completely failed to answer the hypothetical question he's asked you twice now and requested an answer for.  You also haven't explicitly refused to answer and given a reason for doing so.  You've just ignored it even though NightlyPoe made it clear that the point his question was illustrating was a central part of the point he was trying to make. 

Hypothetically, it could be that you think the payment should be illegal both ways, and then his question would be irrelevant, but you haven't said that either.  (If you did say this I would expect you to justify it.)
