The jury found Trump faked records to hide hush payments to Michael Cohen for a $130,000 deal with Stormy Daniels, influencing the guilty verdict.
Key to conviction was believing witnesses over Trump; no direct evidence of affair but jury agreed with Stormy's claims.
Paying to keep affair quiet isn't illegal, but prosecution argued Trump tricked voters with a conspiracy, benefiting the most from it.
Joshua Steinglass stated 'all roads lead to the man who benefited the most: Donald Trump,' highlighting the focus on Trump's involvement.
