Did Trump just make a ‘hugely damning admission’ in the Stormy Daniels case? - The Washington Post
"It may seem obvious that Cohen was acting on Trump's behalf — given that Daniels was making allegations against Trump, and Cohen worked for Trump.", "To this point, Cohen has acknowledged having “facilitated” the payment, but Trump has said he didn't know about it.", "President Trump made a rare public comment about the Michael Cohen-Stormy Daniels case Thursday morning, playing down the lawyer's work for him and insisting that he didn't know about Cohen's business activities.", "But legally speaking, it may matter that Trump acknowledged this action was taken in Cohen's capacity as his attorney.", "For example, Trump still hasn't denied that he had a fund for Cohen to draw from to reimburse himself for the payment."

So now if Cohen is convicted of doing an illegal act in Trump’s behaft and Trump pardons him it would be dicey.
