Trump is – or had been – close pals with AMI chief David Pecker, who’d pushed Trump for years to run for the White House, and then used the Enquirer to promote his candidacy. To avoid being charged with campaign-law violations, Pecker flipped three months ago and began cooperating with the feds. He corroborated detailed information offered by former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, now bound for prison.

Its worth noting that Trump has attacked every single person who has turned against him, with one exception. That is David Pecker. Trump has not said a single negative word about Pecker, which tell us just how much dirt this man has on Trump.

The Republicans made a serious mistake and they are for the most part trying to tough it out... Salvage this administration.. but that's not working. I think they will cut their losses and dump Trump.

If you don't know by now that Trump and his passel of scoundrels and carpetbaggers are bad news for America, you never will.

how long? can we set a date? I don't think it's fair for you to make these claims with such confidence and not have a definitive end point. what date can we have in mind where if what you predict doesn't come to fruition, you'll have to admit you are wrong? How low will republican support have to go for you to qualify for being right? Lets quantify this. I'm holding your feet to the fire.

Remember PECKER has a 'filing cabinet'. Apparently it is a WEALTH of information and 'contracts' having to do with TRUMP! And TRUMP TRIED TO BUY IT ALL BACK...

National Enquirer Had Decades of Trump Dirt. He Wanted to Buy It All.

A recording released last month of a conversation between Michael Cohen and Donald J. Trump hinted at more than hush money to a former Playboy model. “It’s all the stuff,” Mr. Cohen can be heard saying.

Federal investigators have provided ample evidence that President Trump was involved in deals to pay two women to keep them from speaking publicly before the 2016 election about affairs that they said they had with him.
But it turns out that Mr. Trump wanted to go even further.

He and his lawyer at the time, Michael D. Cohen, devised a plan to buy up all the dirt on Mr. Trump that the National Enquirer and its parent company had collected on him, dating back to the 1980s, according to several of Mr. Trump’s associates.

The existence of the plan, which was never finalized, has not been reported before. But it was strongly hinted at in a recording that Mr. Cohen’s lawyer released last month of a conversation about payoffs that Mr. Cohen had with Mr. Trump.

A tape of a 2016 conversation between Donald J. Trump and his former lawyer, Michael D. Cohen, sheds new light on hush money payments to a former Playboy model — but questions remain.Published OnJuly 25, 2018CreditCreditBrendan Mcdermid/Reuters“It’s all the stuff — all the stuff, because you never know,” Mr. Cohen said on the recording.

The move by Mr. Trump and Mr. Cohen indicated just how concerned they were about all the information amassed by the company, American Media, and its chairman, David Pecker, a loyal Trump ally of two decades who has cooperated with investigators.
