During an appearance on MSNBC's "The Weekend," the former executive editor of the National Enquirer admitted that during his tenure his boss was running the organization like a 'criminal enterprise" while working hand-in-hand with Donald Trump.

Speaking with the hosts on Sunday morning, Lachlan Cartwright claimed he was not privy to all the details of publisher David Pecker's behind-the-scenes plotting and that he had told friends he thought something seemed amiss as when they ended up burying potentially explosive stories.

After stating he discussed what he was seeing at the time with friends, he explained, "They would say, 'chill out, you could be a conspiracy theorist.' Now I'm hearing it confirmed by David Pecker in court. Now my friends are saying, sorry, you were not a conspiracy theorist."
