What the National Enquirer editor didn't ask...

30 April 2024
Washington Post

In the courtroom during Trump's trial today:

Attorney Keith Davidson detailed how he approached the National Enquirer in June 2016 with the story that Karen MacDougal, a former Playboy model, allegedly had an affair with Trump while he was married. Davidson was MacDougal’s attorney.

“I have a blockbuster Trump story!" - Text from Davidson to Dylan Howard, an editor at the National Enquirer.

"Talk 1st thing. I will get you more than ANYONE FOR IT. You know why.” - Dylan Howard in response.

Yeah. We all know why, Howard. Go on...

Howard asked if the alleged affair occurred while Donald Trump was married* to his current wife, Melania. The two then set up a meeting.

Odd that Howard didn't ask if the story was true; only whether it happened while the ambulatory trash-bag of personality defects was married to Melania; implying he believed Trump was the serial-adulterer we all know him to be.

* He was. The arrogant bag of offal, met MacDougal in June of 2006 at the Playboy mansion in LA. Trump and Melania were married in January of 2005. Their unfortunate son, Barron, was born in March of 2006. So Trump made his move on MacDougal when Barron was 3-months old.

All the Clinton era "Family Values" Evangelical scolds must be so proud of their guy.
