The White House schedule said only that Mr Poroshenko would “drop in” to the Oval Office while Mr Trump was having staff meetings.
That had been agreed through official channels. Mr Cohen’s fee was for getting Mr Poroshenko more than just an embarrassingly brief few minutes of small talk and a handshake, the senior official said. But negotiations continued until the early hours of the day of the visit.
Seems that if this is the case, that they negotiated the FEE up until hours before the visit, that Trump and whoever handles scheduling would have to be aware of this. Cohen would have had to convey to the president that their demands had been met and that Poroshenko should get more time.
Huge.
