This Book And It's Claims; The Pee Tape....

It seems to me that it would be hard to fabricate or make up the claims about the Trump WH & Trump in this book - as some are so far fetched - that it would seem beyond the possibility for someone to be creative enough to come up with these claims in the first place and expect people to believe them.

So to me - what has been published in this book - is true - not made up falsehoods.

I feel the same way about this pee tape mentioned in the 'dossier'. Who would be so stupid to make something like that up and think that anyone would believe it - unless it is really true and it really did happen and it was being reported as such in the dossier.

Wolff has made up quotes and incidents that were soon disavowed by the people involved. Good for book sales but bad for your reputation. Russia has made up disinformation intended to discredit real intelligence or reporting.

I think the real tell is Trump's own reaction. Lewandowski's book a few weeks ago had some negative details about Trump. Trump said nothing, which means it wasn't true. This time he hit the roof, which means it is true.
