During a court review of a list of President Trump's most regular contacts sent to former assistant Madeleine Westerhout during the transition to the White House, prosecutor Rebecca Mangold has focused on two key names - ex-National Enquirer publisher David Pecker and former Trump attorney Michael Cohen. These individuals are central figures in the alleged hush money scheme being presented by the prosecution.
Mangold specifically questioned Westerhout about the relationship between Cohen and Trump during that time. Westerhout confirmed that they did indeed have a close relationship at that point in time.
