Michael Wolff’s book, Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, has just been released but has already caused quite a stir among members of the White House.
With some parts of the book being revealed in advance, the world can now read how a lot of White House officials allegedly laughed behind President Donald Trump’s back.
The title contains some scandalous and shocking claims about the first year of Trump’s presidency.
In many parts of the book, the author mentions many insults about Trump’s mental abilities from people like the media mogul Rupert Murdoch.
The list of high-ranked politicians goes on with Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and former White House chief of staff Reince Priebus calling the president an “idiot,” and Chief economic adviser Gary Cohn and National security adviser H.R. McMaster also questioning his intelligence.
All of them are working or have worked for the White House under Trump before, and are unreachable for comments.
Murdoch is also mentioned in one passage, with him questioning the president’s intelligence after a phone call between the two of them about an unsuccessful business meeting.
Apparently, the Secretary of State Rex Tillerson also slighted the president by calling him a “moron” this summer. Tillerson has come out to deny the part attributed to him in the book.
Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka is among the mentioned in the book too, as it is described how she often made fun of the president’s hair in front of friends.
After it was revealed that one of the key sources for the book is former chief strategist Steve Bannon and with the published passages in advance, the White House started issuing some defensive statements. An example is Trump’s lengthy tirade against Bannon, where he denies everything that Wolff had written.
It seems the part about Trump’s mental fitness provoked a lot of reactions among his supporters.
