In Trump's countless speeches he would always say stuff like "people are saying". Or "we are reading that". And then he would follow with some salacious, slanderous story about his political opponents and literally anyone he did not like at the moment.
Of course, he does this to excuse himself from slander charges and being called a liar.
With this testimony, we are learning now that Trump is the actual source of these false, slanderous stories that he fed to Pecker. He wasn't innocently reading and coming across these BS stories. He was creating them, feeding them to Pecker and causing them to hit the news stands.
He is arguably the most despicable public figure in history.
Now you know why the term "fake news" rolled off his tongue so easily.
