Why were the hush payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal so small

[cyclonefence]

compared to the million-dollar-plus payment to hush up the RNC bigwig's affair with a Playmate? I am suspicious that the RNC guy is taking the fall for Trump, and the bribe was so much because the woman became pregnant. As I understand it, the abortion came after the hush money was paid--was the payment contingent on her having an abortion? Why was the president's lawyer involved in this affair, anyway?

I would bet the farm that the RNC guy was "David Dennison" man about town.

2. The playmate was pregnant so having a kid would have cost more

Than what they paid for her to abort.

3. when you're against abortion

and have to pay for your mistress' abortion, it's a lot more expensive than just covering up an illicit sexual encounter.

4. Surely those were just final payments.

The press is so far calling these affairs, but it is no great stretch to believe that Donald paid mistresses regularly.

5. David Dennison is the name on both documents to bad the gossip rags are all Trump cronies

6. The women sold themselves cheaply and fear I suspect
