You have no reson to denigrate Wolff so. He sensibly pointed out that staffers had lied to him, different people told him contradictory things, and highlighted the moral vacuum at the heart of the US government. That some cling to their vanished dream of sticking it to whoever they blame for their miserable existence by voting Trump, is only to be expected.

You better watch his interview....
 
I wait for the sequel. All the salivating will be fascinating to watch.

Agreed, Wolff came forward with the news that some/many of the stories in his book could be false, but then we're faced with the question of why he didn't track down the truth and separate it from rumor.

Asking for a little forgiveness after the fact isn't quite the same as writing with integrity.

Kind of like the kid who hands in the essay to his teacher and announces that he plagiarized some of it. Sure, he admitted it -- but his work is still lacking.

So the fact that I already am a Trump supporter and that I have a hard copy of Hillary's book. Kind of blows that bull**** out of the water already.

Hey, you have to have something to focus your pathological hatred on.

So no, your delusions that you’ve “blown anything out of the water” are nothing more than a dud.

I Have a copy of the book, and am reading it now. From what I have read so far, I believe that Trump will never be indicted for conspiracy with Russia because he expected to lose the election, and wanted to use his candidacy as a springboard to bigger and better things. Steve Bannon and others, however, did see the possibility of Trump winning, and worked very hard to make it happen. When the Mueller investigation plays out, there will be more indictments, but Trump's won't be among them as far as conspiracy goes. After reading the book so far, I believe that Trump is innocent on the conspiracy accusation. As for obstruction, I am now taking a wait and see attitude. IMHO, if Trump is indicted for anything, it will be for money laundering, and that will more than likely come out of New York, rather than from Mueller.

Agree. Trump is Russia's useful idiot. You can almost see the sarcasm dripping down Putin's face whenever he talks about Trump. Trump is too stupid to pull off a conspiracy with Russia knowingly. He probably doesn't even know where 90% of his money comes from (Russia). If he was smarter he would have gotten a clue when it was all happening around him, but he was too busy yelling at the TV.

It's clear from stuff from this book that Trump likes to live in his own world and most likely anything uncomfortable to him, he doesn't want to hear about it, nobody tells him about it, and he's none the wiser. People around him definitely colluded with Russia. They (his sons) probably told him, "Hey dad, these are nice guys from Russia," and that's about it. Trump not knowing he can't be associated with a foreign entity while running for President, doesn't care, also because he doesn't want to win. Says "Nice to meet you, I hope you get that dirt on Hillary," and that's it!

It could be pretty easy, even now for his sons to lie about the meetings to his father and then to say that they were business meetings and not related to the campaign. How often do you wanna bet that happened and is still happening? Yes, that's illegal too but nobody in trump world cares.

You're basing this off a blog. Yes, Trump did what every sitting president before him has done; he structured his public speech in a way that builds up his platform.

Is this unique?

Bill Clinton was frigging impeached for perjury, Obama lied about fighting terrorism, and Bush lied to start wars. Yet Trump's lies are things like 'obamacare is dying'.

Oh noes! Get a grip.

You just admitted that trump lied that Obamacare is dying. I wonder if you possess the intelligence to understand the significance of that admission.

There are two things Trump values.

1) Money.

2) His reputation as an intellect.

This books puts the latter to rest forever, which in a way, is worse than any criminal charges or impeachment could ever be to him.

Exactly. The book shows Trump to be a clown disguised as a court jester wearing the costume of a fool posing as the village idiot. And all the blue and bluster and self proclaimed findings of his own genius and stability can counter that.

I do what I can. :)

So much hype over a big nothing is hilarious. Six months for now, unsold inventory will be selling on the streets for $1.

I really hoped we would get some good info, not that Don and Melania sleep in separate beds. Like OMG she's a trophy wife. Yeah, that's revealing something none knew.

That's what the media claimed. Free publicity for the publisher. Hil should have tried that line for her latest book which sold how many copies?

It's a war of empty words.

Truth hurts eh? Great book, the DNC should buy a few million copies and send them out to voters in swing states, though going by the last two elections in VA and Red GA, it wont be necessary as the Dems will more than likely flip the House, and start with Articles of Impeachment. The Dems have shown they can get the black vote out, and they are not voting GOP:lamo If the GOP will not hold Trump accountable, the American people will elect someone who will in Nov 2018.:2wave: Lets make America great again in Nov 2018 !!

I agree. We need the new speaker of the House as President in 2019. Pence is dirty too.

The amazing thing is the lack of denials from the main characters in the book. It appears the gullible ones are the ones that don't believe it is pretty accurate.
