Trump and Cohen Reportedly Came Up With a Great Idea to Buy the National Enquirer's Dirt in Bulk
The incestuous relationship between the President of the United States and the country’s premier gossip tabloid took another weird turn this week, with a report claiming that Donald Trump and Michael Cohen came up with a scheme to buy back decades worth of dirt the National Enquirer had gathered on the president.
According to the New York Times on Thursday, Trump and his longtime attorney-turned-federal stool pigeon Michael Cohen hatched a plan in 2016 to purchase the Enquirer’s cache of Trump-related gossip. The Associated Press reported last week that Enquirer boss David Pecker kept the incriminating documents in a safe, although the condition and location of the items is currently unknown. The plan, however, ultimately never materialized, according to the Times.
