This one has been bugging me. Trump has attacked everyone involved in the hush money case except for Pecker. Whatever it is, Pecker must have some concrete evidence of something so extremely bad on Trump that Trump absolutely remains silent on him.
If I had to guess, it is the pee tapes, but it really could be any number of things. It could be something with Epstein as well
or maybe Baron isnt his kid.

(8,066 posts)Epstein had a big hold on trump for a long long time.
Epstein's services would have been right up Trump's ally.
Underage girls, secrecy, illegal activity.

Bad bad stuff I'm certain.

(61,711 posts)Just imagine how much evidence the National Enquirer has amassed about a gross, criminal, sociopathic, apparent pedophile who ran for president? We've heard only a tiny fraction of what Pecker has on Trump.

(14,838 posts)The feds raided his offices and seized his electronics, no? The da would have that info.
Sure, it's possible it's in a mayonnaise jar under funk and wagnels porch, but really, they can be thorough when they want to be.
I would have to believe they have anything pucker has. Unless it is too old to use at trial, or just not admissible for some reason.
Of course the fbi, especially the sdny, might just have buried it and not turned it over to the nyag.

(61,711 posts)He isn't really thinking about legal peril. He worries about being embarrassed in the public eye.
The FBI might have some of the evidence, but they mostly seem to be on Trump's team anyway. It's probably even more secure a "catch and kill" to have it in the FBI files.
And, I have no doubt that really bad, radioactive evidence is deeply hidden somewhere. Off shore, probably. Not on office hard drives.

(33,207 posts)The search HAD to find SOMETHING and he knew they were coming. (See: The multiple incomplete searches at Mar-a-largo for example)
Its like a drug raid. The cops find some misdemeanor amount of junk. The perp says, Aw, shucks, your honor. They caught me. I feel so bad. I wont do it again. Rinse. Repeat.
Pecker is just like Trump, except competent.

(23,156 posts)That's the only thing I can think of off the top of my head that would scare tsf so much. He knows he could lose the evangelicals over that and so lose by a tidal wave.

(23,156 posts)My dad, if he were alive, would never ever vote for a convicted criminal but otherwise would probably vote for tsf. He was an evangelical in all senses of the word, not the present use. He totally supported paying every penney he owed and would never tell a lie - no matter what and actually cared about the words and actions of Jesus. He didn't just talk the talk but actually walked it, he was authentic in his belief.
Now, almost all of the so called christians that support tsf are indeed sanctimonious hypocrites and asses, but there are a few who are genuine and caring folks. My folks and I argued all the time about politics, me being a leftie and them being righties, but we never argued about fraud or messing with the constitution..

(3,729 posts)when all is said and done, Pecker will probably have dished out about 10% of what he knows about trump.

(61,711 posts)And given how much personal info he blabbed to Stormy Daniels during their brief encounters, imagine the pillow talk McDougal heard.
Irish_Dem
(47,423 posts)Everyone already knows about it.
I just watched clips of Karen's interview with Anderson Cooper.
Karen states that had a ten month long affair with Trump.
They met five times a month for sex.
She was clear that Trump refused to use protection.
She looked down when AC asked her about it and appeared distressed about it.
I think there is a good chance that there was a pregnancy and abortion.
Along with my speculation that Mellies pregnancy was IVF and McDougal riding raw Trump ( * gag * ) and either getting pregnant or NOT with Trump. This could get EEN-teresting!
* rubs hands together maliciously *
I can only hope they go there. Maybe the paparazzi are good for something after all.
Hugin
(33,207 posts)During her affair with Trump. Hes got to be petrified of what it could expose. Daniels can be waved off as a fling. I believe it is why it is being emphasized by the defense.
McDougal (and others?) Not so much.

(47,423 posts)So yes she has dirt on him.

(1,251 posts)You fell for a classic MI6 psyops to distract the non-serious players from the important parts of the Steele Dossier--the stuff that needed serious investigation.
Burying the gold under a pile of shiny junk is an old trick that the spooks have played for decades now.

(2,002 posts)If the story had simply been "There is a video of Trump with some hookers", I'd be with you.
But the story was "hookers peeing on each other and the bed that the Obama's slept in". I don't see how someone comes up with that as "psyops" to distract from the rest. And Trump seemed way too concerned about that one detail of the Steele Dossier while blowing off every other allegation or hardly addressing them.
PatSeg
(47,602 posts)If the story was totally bogus, he would just briefly deny it and move on, but you can always tell when Trump is guilty by the intensity and duration of his denial.
Yeah, I'd say there is probably some truth to the "Pee tape" allegations.

(19,114 posts)Pecker said, "We committed a campaign violation."
He testified that he was worried, but Cohen said he was not, telling Pecker: "Jeff Sessions is the attorney general and Donald Trump has him in his pocket."
