The current Trump case is testing the limits, wouldn't you say?

No, not really.

Again, there's a lot of pretty strong evidence that Trump committed a crime. He clearly falsified these business records. These payments were not made for legal services - they were reimbursements to compensate Cohen for personally being a pass-through for payments to Daniels. I have yet to see a real argument that Trump didn't try to conceal the fact that these payments were for Daniels by misrepresenting that they were payments for legal services.

A prosecutor that has that in hand is always going to be able to get an indictment, even if that indictment is vulnerable to some legal arguments on related issues.
