Weren't the hush money payments made during the campaign, in 2016, before he was in the WH?
Yes, but he's not charged with making the payment but for falsifying records regarding the reimbursement to Cohen for making the payment.

And that happened after he was sworn into office?

I gave the dates and the link to the indictment on the previous page.

Yes, the false business records were all generated after Trump's inauguration in January 2017.

Again, these demented ravings have nothing to do with the subject of this thread. If you don't want to discuss the issues regarding Trump's criminal trial in NYC, please refrain from posting here.

The alleged crimes were committed before he assumed office. The court cases were put on hold while he was in office because a sitting president cannot be indicted. He would have been prosecuted whether or not he had ever held office. Ergo, not politically motivated. Of course, his political opponents are pleased that he is finally being prosecuted, but that is not the motivation of DoJ.
Put Moonbus down as one who does not think that the perfectly-timed actions brought against this candidate for president are not politically motivated.

Ok, so they’re politically motivated, to keep a felon out of office. Happy now?

Mott, ask Marauder this, he seems to have really researched the ins-and-outs, the reasoning the Trump trial(s).
What reasoning was applied to the Mayorkas case , to dismiss the impeachment trial, when he had been proven to have committed a felony in lying to Congress?

None of your or Mott's false "whataboutisms" have any relevance to the issues in Trump's NY trial. The Judge has already denied a motion to dismiss the indictment based on "selective prosecution" stating:

"The Defendant has not overcome the presumption, that the People's prosecution of this matter was undertaken in good faith and without discrimination." https://casetext.com/case/people-v-trump-20 p. 23

In fact, the charge is a fairly common one in NY: "the People note that their Office has brought "approximately 437 cases charging violations of PL § 175.10." p. 22. That's just in one county albeit New York which is basically Manhattan.

For those too lazy to read the indictment:

The People presented evidence to the Grand Jury that between August 2015 and December 2017, Michael Cohen ("Cohen"😉, a lawyer who worked for the Trump Organization and also held the role of Defendant's Special Counsel, paid $130,000 to Stormy Daniels (also known as Stephanie Clifford hereinafter "Daniels"😉 prior to the 2016 presidential election. The payment was part of an agreement between Defendant and Daniels whereby Daniels agreed to not publicize information about a sexual encounter she had with the Defendant. Defendant was concerned about the negative impact that information could have on his campaign for President of the United States."

"On or about October 10, 2016, Cohen spoke with Keith Davidson ("Davidson"😉, then the attorney for Daniels, about Daniels' sexual encounter with Defendant. At Defendant's direction, Cohen and Davidson agreed that Daniels would keep the information about the encounter with Defendant concealed, out of the public's eye, in exchange for $130,000. As with the McDougal agreement, Cohen discussed payment for the Daniels agreement with Weisselberg [Then Chief Financial Officer of the Trump Organization - no1].. After this discussion, Cohen agreed he would pay Ms. Daniels after confirming that Defendant would reimburse him. To execute the transaction, Cohen opened a bank account in the name of Essential Consultants LLC. He transferred $131,000 into the account from his personal funds and then wired Davidson $130,000 from the Essential Consultants account.

On or about January 2017, Defendant, Weisselberg and Cohen agreed that Cohen would be paid a total of $420,000 to reimburse him for the payment to Daniels. The total represented a $60,000 year end bonus to Cohen for his work at the Trump Organization in 2016, the $130,000 payment he made to Daniels, a $50,000 payment to Cohen for expenses he claimed he incurred working on Defendant's campaign and an additional $180,000 to ensure Cohen was fully reimbursed after taxes. It was agreed that the $420,000 would be paid in installments on invoices Cohen would periodically send to Defendant through the Trump Organization for alleged legal services rendered. On or about February 2017, the Defendant and Cohen met to formalize this arrangement.

From February 2017 through December 2017, Cohen submitted invoices to the Trump Organization as per the agreement with Defendant. This included eleven invoices that were addressed to Weisselberg. The invoices were assigned a general ledger code and entered into the Trump Organization's detail general ledger. Checks were then generated and sent to Cohen. The first check, which was signed by Weisselberg and Eric Trump, and the second check, which was signed by Weisselberg and Donald Trump Jr., were paid from the Trump Revocable Trust. The remaining nine checks were signed by the Defendant and paid from his personal bank account."

https://casetext.com/case/people-v-trump-20 pp. 2 and 4.

Trump admitted to reimbursing Cohen for the Daniels payment all the way back in May, 2018. https://www.npr.org/2018/05/02/607943366/giuliani-says-trump-did-know-about-stormy-daniels-payment
