National Enquirer Turns on Cohen



The National Enquirer is owned by American Media Inc, a company chaired by Trump friend David Pecker. The company’s four-member board also includes a former chief financial officer of Trump’s casino business.

The tabloid is linked to the criminal investigation into Cohen’s financial dealings opened by the U.S. attorney’s office for New York’s southern district. The FBI raided Cohen’s office earlier this month as part of the investigation, seizing records related to payments made to women who have alleged having affairs with Trump.

if stories came out about Trump paying for a mistress' abortion and/or paying another mistress to keep quiet about their affair, it would have caused enough evangelicals to stay home out of mistrust of Trump that it could likely have swung the election.
