13. I'd guess that the National Enquirer was reimbursed by Trump (via Cohen)

So this will come out in the documents that the FBI seized from Cohen's office.

As for the "other women" it's in Michael Wolff's book Fire and Fury that Cohen paid off as many as 100 women in the last couple weeks before the election. I think Wolff quotes Steve Bannon but he doesn't give any of the women's names. Most likely Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougla would be included in that number, but they aren't named in the book.

There were perhaps a dozen women who refused to sign the NDA and didn't get paid to keep quiet. Those women were presumably the ones who filed charges against him for sexual misconduct - mostly for grabbing, touching or kissing without permission. I don't believe any of the women claimed they were raped, except for the 13 year old girl who was never proven and has since dropped the charges.

My point is that there were a LOT of women in his past, and many happened while Trump was married.
