Conway: I never heard of Daniels payment during 2016 election

By LOUIS NELSON 05/04/2018 09:03 AM EDT

Counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway said Friday that she was not aware of a $130,000 payment to an adult film actress from President Donald Trump’s personal attorney in October, 2016, when Conway was the president’s campaign manager.

“I have never heard about that during the campaign,” Conway told reporters as she walked back inside the White House after a TV hit on Fox News. “I was the campaign manager, a lot crossed my desk and that was not among it.”

Conway declined to say when she first became aware of the payment but said she did not know of it at any point last year. Footage of her brief exchange with reporters aired on CNN.

The payment made by Michael Cohen, Trump’s longtime personal attorney, to Stormy Daniels has come under increased scrutiny this week after Rudy Giuliani, a member of the president’s outside legal team, told Fox News this week that the president reimbursed Cohen for the $130,000, contradicting previous explanations by both Cohen and Trump.
