In recent testimony, David Pecker, the CEO of American Media Inc. (AMI), revealed details about Michael Cohen's persistent efforts to obtain all content that AMI had on Donald Trump in September 2016.
Pecker testified that Cohen was insistent on acquiring boxes of old news articles and files related to Trump, despite Pecker's initial explanation that the content was outdated. Cohen reportedly claimed that Trump specifically wanted these documents.
According to Pecker, Cohen made frequent calls to AMI's office in September 2016, urging for the delivery of the boxes to his office. Pecker stated that Cohen's motivation for obtaining the documents was to prevent their potential publication by others in case of unforeseen circumstances, such as Pecker being unable to oversee the content or the company being sold.
This revelation sheds light on the lengths to which Cohen went to secure potentially damaging information about Trump, highlighting the intense efforts made by individuals close to Trump to protect his image and reputation.
