According to Just The News, the aide in question has been identified as Boris Epshteyn. As it goes, quite a few claims have surfaced involving alleged payment demands in order to promote nominees among Trump’s inner circle and at Mar-a-Lago.
The New York Times reports that Donald Trump denies that he was aware of any doings by Boris and has directed his legal team to investigate the matter. The Times notes that his scheme was often labeled as ‘consulting fees.’
