According to Pecker, Trump got angry after seeing Anderson Cooper interviewing McDougal. Trump said that he thought there was an agreement forbidding her from speaking to the press.
Pecker replied: "Yes, we have an agreement but I amended it to allow her to speak to the press."

(47,436 posts)1. Why did Pecker amend the NDA for McDougal to speak to the press?
Isn't that what an NDA is designed to do? Prevent people from speaking to the press?

(47,436 posts)3. Yes that is what I thought as well.
Trump screwed him and Pecker paid him back by making the McDougal NDA worthless.

(52,328 posts)4. Exactly. Someone noted Donnie hasn't said anything negative about pecker
Pecker has the ability and willingness to fight back.
When your business model involves screwing people over left and right, eventually someone will hit back.

(47,436 posts)5. Also Pecker has been collecting dirt on Trump for a long time.
As part of the catch and kill program.
Some of it probably disgusting and nasty.
And illegal.
If most of your employees, friends and business associates are scumbag criminals,
yes one of them will use underhanded means to get even with you after you screw them.

In those boxes he turned over to Trump and Michael Cohen.

With instructions how to handle them in case something unexpected happens?
