Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass has revisited the case involving Karen McDougal, a woman for whom Keith Davidson facilitated a hush money payment in exchange for her story of an affair with Donald Trump. Steinglass referenced a Wall Street Journal article from November 4, 2016, during the proceedings.
According to Davidson, he had multiple conversations with Michael Cohen, Trump's former attorney, who expressed significant distress over the publication of the article. Cohen was particularly concerned about the timing of the article and was eager to identify its source. He was reportedly upset about the proximity of the article to the 2016 election.
