President Donald Trump on Thursday has denied any money from his campaign was used to buy an adult film actor's silence over an affair he says never happened.

He admitted in a tweet lawyer Michael Cohen had paid off Stormy Daniels during the campaign and was reimbursed, reports BBC.

Using campaign funds could have been a violation of federal law. Earlier, his legal aide Rudy Giuliani had said the money was Mr Trump's personal cash.

Ms Daniels says she had an affair with Mr Trump in 2006.
