/”You tell me where,/” he said. /”We’re ready./”
Trump made the comments after his criminal trial had concluded for the day.
Earlier on Friday, former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker testified that he suppressed a story about an alleged affair to help Trump’s 2016 presidential bid, even though it would have boosted sales of his tabloid.
Testifying for a third day, Pecker, 72, agreed with a prosecutor who asked whether it would have been /”National Enquirer gold/” to publish the story of former Playboy model Karen McDougal’s claim that she had an affair with Trump in 2006 and 2007.
But Pecker said he opted not to run the story after paying McDougal for it, because it would have hurt the Republican Trump’s chances of winning the election over Democrat Hillary Clinton.
Pecker is the first witness in the case, which accuses Trump, 77, of falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
The defense has argued the hush money payment was made to spare Trump’s family embarrassment, not bolster his campaign. Trump denies an encounter took place and has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Rhona Graff, who worked as Trump’s business assistant from 1987 to 2021, testified that she once saw Daniels at Trump Tower before he ran for president. She said she heard Trump say he was interested in casting her on /”The Apprentice,/” the reality TV show he hosted.
She said the email addresses of Daniels and McDougal were stored in the computer systems of Trump’s company.
Trump shook her hand when she left the witness stand.
Trump is the first former president to face criminal charges. The trial, which is expected to run through May, could be the only one of his four criminal prosecutions to be completed before his Nov. 5 election rematch with Democratic President Joe Biden.
