The bombshell revelations were made during Trump’s historic hush money trial, in which the ex-president has been accused of falsifying records to stop an alleged affair from becoming public.
The Australian journalist embroiled in a hush money plot to help Donald Trump become president has been named as a co-conspirator in the trial, with text messages read in court showing him discussing potentially being pardoned for electoral fraud if he was ever charged., also told tabloid boss David Pecker that he believed a story about Trump having sex with porn star Stormy Daniels was true and suggested paying $US120,000 to bury it, according to emails shown in court.
The bombshell revelations were made during Trump’s historic hush money trial on Thursday, in which the former president has been accused of falsifying business records to ensure his 2016 campaign to win the White House wasn’t derailed.
However, Pecker said he did not want to pay Daniels because AMI already forked out $US30,000 to kill an unverified story from a Trump Tower doorman claiming Trump had a love child born out of wedlock, plus another $US150,000 to silence an allied affair with former Playboy playmate Karen McDougal. Merchan opted to exclude the texts from being shown to the jury for now because it was a private conversation with a family member and not a business record.
Prosecutors allege Trump then reimbursed him by fraudulently filing the money as a legal expense, even increasing it to $US420,000 paid in instalments, so it looked more legitimate.
