His new book makes some incredible claims. Among them, he claims Nikki Haley gave Trump a blowjob just before she left office.
I think we all agree that Trump is just plain disgusting and outrageous, but should we believe Wolff because we find what he says supportive of our view.
I don't know. Personally, I think he's full of shit a lot of the time, but very good at weaving fact and fiction into a readable narrative.

(6,212 posts)he most likely suffers from ED and always tries to come across as the virile macho man. He doesnt care if he ruins a reputation. He constantly refers to his sexual prowess that in reality doesn't exist.

(18,770 posts)...then that room should be renamed the "Oral Office off the Oval Office".
All kidding aside, I think his veracity has already come into question by his walk-backs about Haley and Trump in the past:
Nikki Haley controversy
While being interviewed during Fire and Fury's publicity tour Wolff told Bill Maher that he was "absolutely sure" President Trump was having an affair, and said that a close reading of his book could reveal who his partner was. Based on a passage from Fire and Fury, some observers believed this was a reference to Nikki Haley, the United States Ambassador to the United Nations. Haley denied Wolff's allegations, calling it "disgusting" and "absolutely not true". Erik Wemple of the Washington Post said that Wolff was engaging in a "remarkable multimedia slime job". The New York Post editorial board called Wolff's claim an "ugly, sexist rumor". Bari Weiss in The New York Times said that Wolff was "gleefully" spreading "evidence-free detail". After several interviewers pressed him about the rumor, Wolff later said that "I do not know if the president is having an affair."

(7,947 posts)She strenuously denied that too. I suspect this is something that women in politics have come to expect, that somehow they will be accused of being a slut or something.

(4,602 posts)Theres a lot of chatter that she and her husband have an open marriage. She was named in a divorce proceeding as the other woman iirc. So Im not prepared to chalk this up to sexism. However I also dont care. If she and her husband are happy with this arrangement...its fine. My problems are with her policies.

(32,633 posts)Just because Chump says these things, doesn't make them true. As a matter of fact, Chump saying them almost for sure makes them untrue, wouldn't you say?
Why is the POTUS telling stories that make himself sound like a 15-year-old boy (the star of his own sex dreams) who has no judgment or perspective in the matter? Because that's what he is, a mental teenager in arrested development and Michael Wolff wants the whole world to see it.
I don't know if I want to read this book, but I do understand Mr. Wolff's motive in writing it.

I could understand disgusted or sick to her stomach... But "enraged" sounds like it was forced. Strange choice of words.
