New book claims Trump called Sally Yates the c-word
By Avery Anapol - 01/03/18 03:26 PM EST
President Trump called former acting Attorney General Sally Yates "a c---" before firing her, according to an explosive new book about the Trump administration.
An excerpt of Michael Wolffs Fire and Fury obtained by MSNBC contained the anecdote.
Trump conceived an early, obsessive antipathy for Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, the book reads. She was, he steamed, such a c---.
One of Trumps first actions as president was firing Yates after she refused to have the Justice Department uphold his initial travel ban that blocked people from seven majority-Muslim countries.
Yates has since been an outspoken critic of Trump, condemning his attacks on the FBI and Justice Department. She tweeted Tuesday that Trump calling Justice Department officials deep state and suggesting they look into his political opponents is beyond abnormal and dangerous.

I'm sure he did, and she is probably not the only women he has referred to with that term.

He has repeatedly shown that he has zero respect for women.
