Why Trump is not attacking Pecker?

Because Pecker has a lot more evidence on Trump that he is not talking about. If he were to open up, it would be devastating for Trump.

Trump is very happy with what has been made public up to this point, in my opinion.

Because, he does not attack those that support him or those that can be of benefit to him or those that can possibly compromise him.

He attacks those that are not on his side or those that are in a position to threaten him in the future.

I have a hunch that Pecker has done a lot of favors for Trump that have not been reported?

1. Yep. Pecker is probably giving the bare minimum needed.

In order for him to comply with the plea deal he made.

Not going to cough up the really bad stuff about Trump.

And this person is being attacked by Tr**p. This person was used by Tr**p and then thrown under the bus. This person served time.

Tr**p's lawyers and Tr**p have labeled this person as a liar.

And who is that person??????

None other than Michael Cohen.

And I don't think that Cohen will hold back on anything in his testimony.

I just hope that after Cohen has had his turn testifying - that the prosecution can bring back Pecker - to maybe corroborate and verify some of the pearls of testimony that Michael Cohen reveals.

Cohen will stick to the case at hand.

And Pecker probably knows more than Cohen.

Pecker was friends and collaborated with Trump for a very long time.

Pecker was gathering Trump stories and had his ear to the ground for them.

The “red team” plays dirty.

They ALWAYS do. Cuz that’s the only way they can win. They don’t have enough votes from racists or anti-choicers or “great 13th-century minds of our time”.
