You're missing the point. It doesn't matter whether Trump would or would not have gotten the NDA if he wasn't running for office. The test is whether the average person would ever get an NDA to suppress potentially embarrassing information. If the answer is "yes," there is no violation. And anyone with common sense and life experience knows that NDAs are entered into all the time outside of political campaigns.
As an aside, how big of a pimp is Donald Trump when he bangs a porn star/prostitute and she pays him? 
And just so we're clear, I'm not trying to convince you of anything. The fact you don't consider opinions from conservatives tells me all I need to know. Your confirmation bias game is strong.
Your confirmation game bias is strong. You constantly assume a lot about me based solely on my being 'a liberal' when in fact you don't know me, aside from what I post on Getbig.
You are wrong, I do consider both conservative and liberal folk's opinions. I consider the possibility their opinions may be biased. There are times when I completely agree with an opinion and times when I partially agree and times when do not agree at all. Most intelligent people qualify what other people say or write and don't take this at face value without knowing something about the person. To do otherwise makes one extremely gullible.
We all have some bias based on personal life experiences which influence how we process what others do and speak. Everyone is the "sum of their parts," so to speak. No one really lives in a 'bubble' as you like to say, including those folks who come off as being totally set in their ways and unchangeable.
It never occurred to me that Trump could be a pimp... I will add this to the long list of his personality traits that influence and confirm my dislike of the man.
