Michael Wolff, author of the explosive Fire and Fury book says he can't be sure if parts of it are true


Libtards go mental over "fake journalism" because it validates their Trump hatred!

Authors of upcoming books are welcome to contact me about the deal Trump made with me!

The author of the explosive new book about Donald Trump's presidency acknowledged in an author's note that he wasn't certain all of its content was true.

Michael Wolff, the author of "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House," included a note at the start that casts significant doubt on the reliability of the specifics contained in the rest of its pages.

Several of his sources, he says, were definitely lying to him, while some offered accounts that flatly contradicted those of others.

But some were nonetheless included in the vivid account of the West Wing's workings, in a process Wolff describes as "allowing the reader to judge" whether the sources' claims are true.

Other people mentioned in the book have also disputed claims made about them.

Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who the book said warned Trump that he may be under surveillance from British spies, issued a statement describing the claim as "categorically absurd" and "simply untrue."

Anna Wintour, the longtime Vogue editor, also dismissed the claim that she lobbied Trump to be his ambassador to the UK as "laughably preposterous."

Other journalists have also urged caution. Some cited Wolff's track record — questions were raised about his 2008 book on Rupert Murdoch — and others compared his claims with their own knowledge of the Trump White House.

It's more Libtard fake news.

Even CNN admits it is nothing but a crock of shit. A work of fiction through and through.

Regardless, the book is just a money grab that doesn't tell us anything we couldn't already obviously see during the election: Trump is an incompetent, unstable man-child surrounded by unqualified morons desperate to keep him under control.

The book is obviously jerk-off material for liberals who've been unhinged since the election.

If it was purely an opinion piece I'd completely agree with you. But direct quotes from Trump administration insiders is a blow to the White House and I imagine we'll see some more heads roll there before the dust settles.

I think Trevor Noah put it best (I'm guessing you don't like him but please try to set aside personal feelings and consider his actual words), he said:

"I don't know how much of 'Fire and Fury" is accurate, but that's what makes it a perfect scandal for this White House. Bizarre, unverified, fraudulent claims is the world that Trump promotes. Millions of illegal votes, Barrack Obama born in Kenya, Ted Cruz's dad killed JFK, suggesting Joe Scarsborough killed an intern. The truth is Mr. President, you made your bed, now eat your cheeseburger in it."

For me this is right on the money. How many unverified claims has Trump made in the past? Can we feel any sympathy when he starts crying foul when it happens to him?

So you're literally gloating that Trump's people tend to be liars, and that they are noted to be untrustworthy.

What's hilarious is how you can't see that, because you think it makes Wolff look bad. LOL!

I love how you Trump worshipers bend over backward to defend the worst President that has ever been elected.

I also love how the Trump worshipers on these boards are so mental.

reply

I love how you fill up Trump's message board with raving posts, but then call others mental.

Comedy gold.

It's amazing how the pain from being ass-raped on election night has lasted for over a year.

I think you're intending to post that reply to someone else, because I certainly don't fill up this board with posts.

Bannon has yet to deny anything in the book.
