the cops have no way to prove that POTUS knew about it because the only proof he knew about it was in the context of that official meeting. So even if someone in the meeting were willing to testify that yes, POTUS knew about the affair because they told him, it would be inadmissible.

Don't forget that Roberts thought of that. See, the person could just tell a newspaper and have a story printed about the conversation, and THAT could be used as evidence. Not the actual testimony of course. Only the article. But that should be plenty of evidence, right? Because that always works?
