The former president was held in contempt of court for a 10th time on Monday.
The tape that almost derailed his bid for the presidency is key to understanding his criminal hush money trial.
Trump's defense attorneys will try to poke holes in the testimony of Pecker, who has described helping bury embarrassing stories.
With the former president on trial for allegedly falsifying business documents, his long and sordid history with the tabloid press may work against him.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
David Pecker discussed agreements involving Trump's former doorman and an ex-Playboy model.
At the helm of the Enquirer, Pecker oversaw the purchase of several potentially damaging stories about Trump during his campaign.
Under Pecker, the National Enquirer for years buried potentially embarrassing stories about Trump and other favored celebrities.
The journalist claims in his new book that the Enquirer's top editor ordered staffers to destroy sensitive Trump-linked documents before the 2016 election.
"Its time to kiss it goodbye," Paul Pope said of the tabloid that protected Donald Trump for years.
The tabloid is under fire for paying $150,000 to keep Karen McDougal quiet about an alleged affair with Trump.
