During a recent legal proceeding, attorney Todd Blanche made statements regarding the Karen McDougal deal, clarifying that it was not a 'catch and kill' situation. Blanche emphasized that McDougal's intention was not to have her story published but rather to advance her career. This distinction is crucial, as it negates the notion that her allegations could have influenced the 2016 election.
Blanche highlighted that McDougal's lack of desire for her story to be made public undermines the government's claim of a conspiracy to sway the election. By asserting that McDougal had no intention of impacting the electoral process, Blanche aimed to debunk the allegations of a coordinated effort to manipulate the outcome.
