Keep in mind Cohen didn't front the money to AMI for these ops. Not only did AMI outlay cash on the front end as Trump was ramping up his whirlwind introduction of Pecker to his Saudi pals, but there were times the cost was so high AMI balked. Then... suddenly they had the money.

Getting Trump into the White House was one of the most spectacularly effective international efforts the world has ever seen. The idea that it was a matter of a quaint hush money payment here or there is simply hilarious.

This criminal trial is a sliver of a very dirty iceberg.

The Saudis went almost directly from their meeting with Donald Trump Jr. in Trump Tower—where they asked the Trump family exactly how they could help illegally steal the election for Trump—to AMI, with whom they immediately developed a highly lucrative relationship (...for AMI).

MORE/ How do I know this, you wonder? Well, I’m glad you asked. I wrote all about it, with full sourcing, in a NEW YORK TIMES bestseller that was published five years ago.

Maybe people will care *now*? Or no? amazon.com/Proof-Conspira…

Yep.

Pretty left field, wasn’t it?

But, as it turned out... it wasn’t. Pecker was never going to help Trump for free, and Trump had the Saudis on the hook asking him to delineate through his agents every possible way they could help him defeat Hillary Clinton in November 2016.

This is a 60-second horror film. My God.

(📣) PROOF will run its big report on David Pecker, Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman—the narrative jurors should be hearing *right now* because it’s part of the case against Trump, but which they’re not hearing—Wednesday night.

⚖️🪴🇺🇦🌈🇮🇱 So in a nutshell Trump rigged the 2016 election, lost the 2020 election BIGLY but falsely claimed it was rigged!!

Trying to pierce Pecker's claim that the arrangement was mutually beneficial, ADA Steinglass notes that catch-and-kill of the alleged affairs didn't benefit AMI's magazines.

Q: The purpose of that component was to benefit the campaign?

Pecker agrees.

Saudi Arabia.

Once you understand that the arrangement between AMI and Trump was in fact an arrangement between AMI and Trump and MBS, you understand it all.

Trump is losing his grip inch by inch on the GOP with every hour of this trial. Don’t believe me? Ask Speaker Johnson.

This from Sen. Mitt Romney re NY trial happening: “I think everybody has made their own assessment of President Trump's character, and so far as I know you don't pay someone $130,000 not to have sex with you.”

Four years ago today, Donald Trump took to the WH briefing room and encouraged his top health officials to study the injection of bleach into the human body to fight COVID.

For our country’s sake, let’s not have this moron back in the Oval Office.

Nikki Haley dropped out of the race over a month ago, yet she is polling nicely in PA. Trump has no shot to win the presidency. Write it down and study it. And if you are with him: CRY.
