The New Yorker has published an investigation into President Donald Trump's history of clandestine affairs while married, and it alleges some shocking things about Trump's extramarital sex life.

In the report, Ronan Farrow claims to have acquired an eight-page document detailing an encounter between former Playboy Playmate of the year Karen McDougal and Trump that kicked off in 2006 while his youngest son Barron was just months old.

Trump, already a top TV personality at the time due to his decades as a public businessman and years at the helm of NBC's "The Apprentice," allegedly carried out several of these affairs that all fit the same pattern.

Using his considerable fortune and vast legal team, the New Yorker alleges Trump bought up stories of his infidelities from magazines to keep them from the public.
