They can be dressed up as a petty crimes but to say they are serious is very far fetched.

It wasn't a reporting violation though it was breaking the law. What Obama seemed to do is break FEC rules for how you report on donations for which the publishment is a fine. Cohen seemed to make illegal campaign contributions.
It's like saying filing late tax returns and tax evasion are 'tax violations' - one lands you with a fine the other is illegal.
