Reporting from court | |
Pecker made regular mention of "the boss" during his testimony on Thursday, providing a mob movie quality to the whole affair. | |
Who is this alleged "boss" - the man Pecker and ex-lawyer Michael Cohen worked so hard for - at the centre of several alleged hush-money payouts and four hours of testimony? | |
It's the man at the defence table: Donald Trump, the former president. | |
Pecker has regularly used "the boss" title in place of Trump's name while testifying, and it has not placed the former president in a flattering light. | |
Pecker has alleged the following of "the boss": | |
"The boss" is the one who had Pecker pay $130,000 to a Playboy model over a secret affair. | |
"The boss" would definitely pay Pecker back, though he never did. | |
"The boss" would be pleased if Pecker could stop Stormy Daniels' claims from becoming public. | |
"The boss" would be angry if Pecker didn't do more to stop allegations of the affair from coming to light. | |
