Oh Dear, Oh Dear
Not the National Inquirer. Oh dear.
Well, come to find out the National Inquirer’s publisher David Pecker has flipped on Trump. Pecker was the guy who bought exclusive rights to the stories about Trump’s mistresses and then never published them.
According to a new report from Vanity Fair’s Gabriel Sherman, however, Pecker has now been granted legal immunity to spill dirt to investigators about allegedly illegal payments the president made to past mistresses during the 2016 presidential campaign.
It is said that Pecker will collaborate Cohen’s story about the illegal campaign contributions to cover up Trump’s hotsy totsy activities.
Here’s the fun part: one of Trumps unnamed allies is quoted: “Holy sh*t, I thought Pecker would be the last one to turn,” the Trump ally said.
Nah, that would be Melania.
Thanks to SGray for the heads up.
You saw the Huffpost headline:
1TRUMP LOSES PECKER
?!?
Well, it’s hard to keep track of something so small and negligible.
2Somehow it seems appropriate, yet ironic, that the Inquirer’s publisher would/should be named Pecker.
3Melania will be the one who turns out the lights. After she secures her share of the loot.
4wait for it….. wait for it…..
“Trump twitter spanks Pecker”
sorry Momma…..

collaborate, intransitive verb: work jointly on an activity, especially to produce or create something
corroborate, transitive verb: to support with evidence or authority : make more certain
Whoever she is quoting probably meant “corroborate”. “Collaborate” isn’t even a transitive verb.
6That sounds like good business.
Pecker should have the inside scoop on the story, so much so that many who have never bought an issue of The Enquirer featuring aliens, celebrities, and a giant demon all on a single cover, might finally be tempted to pick up a copy.
A big, single photo of Trump should be a sufficient substitute for the usual combination.
7Now that her parents are finally U.S. citizens, and Barron is turning into a teenager, and she is not getting any younger no matter how many make-up experts she hires, Melania might not wait out the fall out that is now occurring and due to continue. She is only openly happy when she is away from the White House. I have noticed from photos that when she is on tour by herself she actually enjoys life.
8I’m still waiting for Epstein to go public. Especially since Bannon was checking on him earlier this month.
9Wonder if Trump refers to his friend as “my Pecker?”
10Thank you. I’m busy.
11Hey, let’s not forget all of those shrieking Anti-Hillary stories during the campaign. Do those count as contributions? And was anyone feeding them those stories?
12It would be hard to discount someone like David Pecker-head of a major news outlet.
13Closet Optimist, that would be smearmonger Alex Jones & Co.
14Don’t worry. Trump’s got friends he hasn’t used yet.
But that number gets smaller every day. Can’t count on his Pecker any more.
15I’m a pecker, you are a pecker……heh heh
16Poor kids 20 years down the line who will have to learn all this pissy history.
Lots of men Donny’s age have trouble with their Pecker but Donny’s problem is serious enough to turn his entire wardrobe orange.
17Oh my…Trump’s got his Pecker stuck in his zipper.
18The problem with this little peckerhead is it can actually speak … not just dribble on the toilet seat!!
19It will be interesting to see just what Pecker will disclose!! 🙂
When can we RICO these SOBs?
20Previous comment: “Holy sh*t, I thought Pecker would be the last one to turn,” the Trump ally said.
or, ”
21the last to go soft on Trump,” the Trump ally said.
My oh my. I can’t wait to see what the late night comics do with this one.
22Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just think of the fun the late night comics could have if thid man first name was Richard or Dick.
23oops…should have been “this man’s…”
24I wonder what else Pecker has stashed away in his safe that he might/could share about Trump?
25Oh what a tangled web the Trumper weaves…
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/8/23/1790500/-AP-The-Enquirer-may-have-a-safe-full-of-damaging-Trump-stories
“The National Enquirer kept a safe containing documents on hush money payments and other damaging stories it killed as part of its cozy relationship with Donald Trump leading up to 2016 presidential election, people familiar with the arrangement told The Associated Press.
26The detail came as several media outlets reported on Thursday that federal prosecutors had granted immunity to National Enquirer chief David Pecker, potentially laying bare his efforts to protect his longtime friend Trump.
…
Several people familiar with the National Enquirer’s parent company, American Media Inc., who spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity because they signed non-disclosure agreements, said the safe was a great source of power for Pecker, the company’s CEO.
The Trump records were stored alongside similar documents pertaining to other celebrities’ catch-and-kill deals, in which exclusive rights to people’s stories were bought with no intention of publishing to keep them out of the news. By keeping celebrities’ embarrassing secrets, the company was able to ingratiate itself with them and ask for favors in return.”
What would be worth an ironic chuckle would be if the fear of a similar fate as Gawker weighed in as the final straw to maker that worm pecker turn.
27Like when Arthur Anderson closed shop over enron so does this appear.
Circulation has been dropping and with the information ( almost hate to use news when dealing with this group) that he has been running the National Enquirer as a publicity shakedown racket cannot help. Espiacially since it is the “deplorables” ( they truly are) of demented donnies base that ar probably the greatest demographic of his reader base and target for those running ads. How will they react when the tarnish on their tin god is even being noted by enquirer.
pecker Good Luck on your upcoming fundraiseing attempt ( Bond/ Stock/ finance bid for $400+ Million if memory serves)
My prayers and thoughts go out to your immenent banrupt activities.
Hair Furor has sadly experienced the stinging betrayal that a man of his age can find when his former greatest ally fails him. Through many wives, lovers, affairs, and gropings/assaults his Pecker has never failed him, always performing to Cheatolini’s satisfaction. But now in the face of serious criminal investigation, Pecker’s resolve shrank flaccidly…
28Were the shoe on the other foot, FNN would lead all its “news” programs with something like “XXXX – Countdown to Impeachment”
29@ Old Fart,
I think Rumpy is going to get the shaft…(wicked laugh)
30That safe full of “information” sounds a lot like the infamous files that J. Edgar Hoover had that kept him in office for so long.
31Equally interesting would be what other GOPniks have their buy-and-kill stories in that safe? Did it not seem strange how fast the Repub establishment hugged Trump, after spending months saying how he was completely unsuitable? Although the mind recoils at the thought of McConnel having an affair with some human.
Far more deadly (but less salacious) is Trump’s long-time money man flipping on him:

While Cohen might be the go-to guy to bribe women not to go public with stories of sexual sleaze, Weisselberg knows where the money has come from and gone to over the decades. This is the testimony that I’m looking forward to.
