Pecker testimony reveals backroom deals that helped Trump win 2016

BY ELLA LEE - 04/24/24 6:00 AM ET


NEW YORK — The sordid details of shady backroom dealings spilled out in open court Tuesday when ex-National Enquirer publisher David Pecker confessed his magazine used “checkbook journalism” to pay off sources with unsavory stories about Donald Trump.

The longtime executive admitted to a judge and a jury that his job was to “catch and kill” bad press centered on Trump, including allegations of affairs and children born out of wedlock.

As the Manhattan district attorney’s lead witness, Pecker’s testimony bolstered the theory at the heart of the state’s case — that Trump and his allies attempted to influence the outcome of the 2016 election by burying bad news about Trump while elevating wild claims that were embarrassing to his political opponents.

That alleged conspiracy underpins the 34 felony counts of falsifying business records Trump faces in connection with one of the hush money deals. He’s pleaded not guilty to the charges.

And there’s more to come. Pecker is again expected to take the stand Thursday when the trial will next be held.

However, under cross-examination, Pecker’s revelations seemed to unravel the narrative that had been carefully constructed by the prosecution. Pecker testified that it was not Trump, but he and former Trump attorney Michael Cohen who were primarily concerned about potentially harmful stories due to Trump’s celebrity status and history with women.

LMAO...
But Obama did enter office during an economic crisis. And his response to a crisis is similar to Trump's. More debt, more printing, more government, and more spending.


LMAO, I used to believe as you did, that the crisis in the last six months of Bush's term was due to him, since it happened on his watch.  But I strongly disagree with that opinion today.

FACT IS, THE MOMENT THE DEMS SELECTED OBAMA AND IDIOT SIDEKICK BIDEN IN JUNE, THE MARKET WENT SOUTH.  EVERYTHING BEGAN FALLING APART AS A NATION.  ABSOLUTELY TRUE.  AND TO TOP IT OFF, IN NOVEMBER, WHEN THOSE TWO EMPTY SUITS WERE ELECTED, THE SH*T HIT THE FAN.

I was on a consulting project at a steel plant in Delaware.  We had promised them $2 million in improvements, and got them $22 million in improvements.  Obama got elected, and by the end of November, the client lost 90% of their business.  They reluctantly reduced the scope from six of us to one, and one month later shut the project down.  That kind of outcome occurred across America and NO ONE said a word, because it would have been considered RACIST.  That POS did untold destruction to this nation, and now he still holds a thumb on the destruction of America through his mindless pawn Wrecking Ball Joe.

Trump is on his best day a huge tool.  He is a liar.  And I would tell him to his face.  He promised to end the H1-b Visa Program DAY ONE of his first term.  Months into it, he met with the tech billionaire oligarchs in the USA and INCREASED the numbers of H1-b Visa recipients.  A total betrayal to white collar workers.  He did NOT BUILD THE WALL, a betrayal to blue collar workers.  Of course, the STINKING REPUBLICANS did not support him either.

Something has to change, for our system in Washington is non functional.  Hoping it will change is a waste of time.  REAL CHANGE needs to occur.  We need to return the republic which is gone.  I say by any means necessary.

We no longer have representative government.  Hell, the invading illegal aliens have better representation in our stinking Congress than citizens.  So does Ukraine, our great ally!  BTW, Ukraine has NEVER been an ally of the USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Many of these turds supported Hitler and the Nazis.

Trump is an arrogant fool. BUT, and a MAJOR BUT, he did do some good things, and the people benefited from his actions.  I happen to believe the biological weapon unleashed while he was POTUS was released to damage his presidency, and it most surely did.  A total idiot that did not campaign beat him, by any and all means, including OVERTLY CHEATING!  To the winner go the spoils as they say.  Biden's victory is a dark, dark chapter in our history.

We need a real leader in this nation, and neither Trump nor Biden is that man.  The USA is in trouble, and the most serious problems are being ignored.  Plus, Wrecking Ball Joe has set the environment for two wars, and if he gets elected, that picture will not improve, it will worsen.

We got real trouble in river city, and no one to come and fix it, not even Trump!!!!!

Again, how does Trump's policies compare to LBJ's Great Society which was one of the biggest implementations of policies to keep DEM voters and also one of the largest social reform plans in modern day history?? 

I didn't bring up the GS. You did. My comparing him to LBJ was because, like LBJ, Trump tends to support an activist federal government.

One of the things I do give credit to Johnson for was implementing the Insurrection Act on 3 occasions  when needed.  Trump failing to use the Insurrection Act after the Floyd ordeal is why we are seeing the mobs and riots that we are seeing today.
