Trump Personally Facilitated Hush Money Payments To Stormy Daniels And Karen McDougal: WSJ

President Donald Trump played a key role in silencing porn star Stormy Daniels and model Karen McDougal, who both claimed to have had affairs with the president.

Media executive David Pecker met with Trump multiple times to discuss using the National Enquirer tabloid to buy the silence of women he allegedly slept with, according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal . The publication said it spoke to three dozen people with direct knowledge of the payments.
