"Fire and Fury: Inside the White House of Trump", the most awaited of 2018 !!!
Hello friends of steemit ... how many are not like me waiting to know about Michael Wolff's book, that the fury is with them hahaha
Despite the White House's lawyers, they requested in a letter yesterday that the publication and dissemination of the book "Fuego y Furia: Within the Trump White House" be immediately canceled, executive Henry Holt and Company Patricia Eisemann, said that "Following an unprecedented demand, we have advanced the launching of all formats of 'Fire and Fury', by Michael Wolff, to Friday, January 5," although the date for the departure to the sale was on January 9. It details that Trump's goal was not to reach the presidency of the United States, but to enhance his brand, they explained the possibility that the book may encourage the invasion of privacy and defamations against Trump and his family.
Of the white house they have tried to discredit the book, indicating that it contains "false affirmations" and of sources "that do not have access or influence on the White House". However, Wolff says his book is based on more than 200 interviews with the president, his political and family circle.
Although what is written there is true or not, it has shaken the beginnings of 2018, since the publication of fragments of the book in New York Magazine and The Guardian, has provoked the wrath of Trump and has aroused doubts about the accuracy of its content, the reliability of the citations, the use of the sources or the veracity of some of the events that it narrates.
According to Wolff, the book points to the inability of the president to exercise his functions.
"My indelible impression when talking to them and observing them for much of the first year of their presidency is that all, 100%, came to believe that they were unable to function in their work," he wrote. However, the biggest controversy of the book are the statements of Steven Bannon (Trump's man), who said that a meeting that Donald Trump Jr., the son of the president, had with a group of Russian citizens near the Kremlin in June 2016, was an act of "betrayal" and "lack of patriotism." I find that the Russians offered him information to damage the Hillary Clinton campaign, a situation that led Trump to publish a hard statement in which he said that his former strategy chief had lost his mind after being fired.
Here I leave you 10 statements made in the book, according to what has been published so far.
Steve Bannon thought Trump's son was "traitor"
"The three senior leaders in the campaign thought it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government inside the Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor, without lawyers, they did not have any lawyers, even if you think that This was not treason, or unpatriotic, or stupid, and it occurred to me to think that's all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately. "Trump "perplexed" for his victory
"Shortly after 8 o'clock on Election Day, when the surprising trend was that Trump could actually win, Donald Trump Jr. told a friend that his father, or DJT, as he calls him, looked like If she had seen a ghost, Melania was in tears and not joy ... It was a perplexed Trump transforming into an incredulous Trump and then into a horrified Trump, but the final transformation would still come: Donald Trump became a man who thought he deserved it. and that he was completely capable of being the president of the United States. "Trump "angry" at the inauguration
"Trump did not enjoy his own inauguration, he was angry that the A-level personalities refused to attend the event, he was unhappy with the accommodation at Casa Blair, and he was seen fighting with his wife, who seemed on the verge of Throughout the day, he had what some around him call the golfer's face: angry and pissed off, with stooping shoulders, swinging arms, eyebrows and puckered lips. "
Trump found the White House "spooky"
"Trump, in fact, found the White House a bit irritating and even creepy ... In the early days, he asked for two television screens, in addition to the one already there, and a lock on the door, which led to a brief confrontation with the Secret Service that insisted on having access to the room. "Ivanka the president
"They had reached a serious agreement: if at some point in the future the opportunity presented itself, she would be the candidate for president." The first woman president, Ivanka was excited, would not be Hillary Clinton, but would be Ivanka Trump. who had coined the term 'Jarvank,' which is increasingly fashionable in the White House, was horrified when he learned of the agreement of the couple. "Ivanka teased her dad's hair
"She treated her father with a degree of detachment, even irony, going so far as to make fun of her hair with others, often describing to her friends the mechanics behind the hairstyle."The White House does not know its priorities
Katie Walsh, the deputy head of the White House, asked presidential adviser Jared Kushner (Trump's son-in-law): "'Just tell me the three things that the president wants to focus on,' he asked (Walsh). 'What are the three priorities of this White House? '... After six weeks of Trump's presidency, Kushner remained unanswered. "Trump's admiration for Rupert Murdoch (Media magnate, among which the Fox News channel stands out)
"'He is one of the greats, the last of the greats,' said Trump ... Without appreciating the fact that he was now the most powerful man in the world, Trump was still trying hard to curry favor with a tycoon. of the means that had always scorned him as a charlatan and a fool. "
Murdoch called Trump "idiot"
Murdoch suggested that taking a liberal approach to H-1B visas, which open the doors of the United States to selected immigrants, could be hard to square with his promises to build a wall and close borders, but Trump seemed indifferent, and He told Murdoch, 'Let's solve it.' Murdoch said 'What a fucking idiot,' shrugging as he hung up the phone.Michael Flynn (former National Security Advisor) knew that his ties with Russia were "a problem"
According to the book, Wolff writes that before the election, Flynn "had been warned by friends that it was not a good idea to accept $ 45,000 from the Russians to give a speech." Well, it would only be a problem if we won, "he assured them.
We'll see after today that all this is going, what we can be sure of is that Trump did not stay still
