Speculation has risen as to why Donald Trump has not risked violating his gag order to attack former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker following his damning testimony in the hush money trial.
Pecker, the former head of America Media, which owns the tabloid, was the first witness to take the stand in New York in the former president’s falsifying business records trial,during which he discussed setting up an arrangement to help stop negative stories about Trump from coming out ahead of the 2016 election.
While under oath, Pecker said he had concerns about the legality of performing a so-called “catch and kill” by paying Playboymodel Karen McDougal $180,000 to keep a story about an alleged affair between her and the former president from coming out ahead of the 2016 election.

No shit that guy has the receipts
He’s been falling asleep except for when pecker is testifying. The reporters have said his demeanor completely changed. Went from just sitting there to leaning forward or folding his arms.
I wonder if you look back at photos of him doing that, if he’s being told shit he doesn’t like.
Maybe he’s trying to keep from filling his diaper, too.
That’s a pretty common body posture tell.
So, would it would be safe to say Donald Trump loves Pecker?
A lot of people are saying it.
Tremendous people. Much bigly. …hamberder.
I guess we know which Pecker is bigger.
I’ve heard he has a preference for putins pecker.
Big pecker, strong pecker, tears in his eyes
He still has a lot more dirt on Trump.
Trump apparently told people in the White House that Pecker knew more than anyone in the room. Pecker said that was a joke, but we all know Trump doesn’t joke.
I saw a video where they described what was said in the trial. Apparently they sometimes buy stories just to have something to use as pressure on people. I’m pretty sure that you’re right, Trump is quiet because he is forced to.
It’s been long alluded that he has a safe full of Trump dirt.
If the dude really has been "catch-and-kill"ing DJT stories since the 1980s, it’s a damn big safe.

Shouldn’t be too hard to get a warrant to search it. Or to find.
It would be great if there was some legal way to get Pecker to spill ALL the goods on donnie. Everything.
So you’re waiting with bated breath for the pecker to spill.
We want the pecker to ejaculate excitedly, and spill everything.
That’s a risky link, for sure!
The DA figured it out: if you want to shut Trump up, just show him your Pecker.
What the penis guy said is true and he can prove it. There’s your answer.
The lies being provably false hasn’t mattered in any other context. Pecker’s got something on Trump not related to the case big enough to make Trump shut up.
Edit: subject verb agreement
I’d bet anything that is the case.
I mean he killed all sorts of stories for him.
He knows where the bodies are buried.
What did the penis guy say? Also, who’s the penis guy?
Well I guess we know who holds the power in their relationship.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Speculation has risen as to why Donald Trump has not risked violating his gag order to attack former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker following his damning testimony in the hush money trial.
Pecker, the former head of America Media, which owns the tabloid, was the first witness to take the stand in New York in the former president’s falsifying business records trial, during which he discussed setting up an arrangement to help stop negative stories about Trump from coming out ahead of the 2016 election.

Prosecutors argue that Trump, Pecker, and Cohen “orchestrated a cover-up to interfere” with the 2016 presidential election by concealing negative information about the Republican from becoming public.
Speaking on the LegalAF podcast, trial lawyer Michael Popok noted that Trump has so far refused to make any damning statements about Pecker, despite frequently willing to risk a fine or even jail to violate his gag order to attack Cohen.
“Trump might say he was worried about Melania, but Pecker underscored the DA’s charge that influencing voters was very much behind the whole catch-and-kill plot,” Goldfeder told Newsweek.
The original article contains 656 words, the summary contains 228 words. Saved 65%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Sounds like Putin and Pecker have the same tape.
Its well known that trump is fond of peckers.
