Here's an aside that I cannot offer a link to.
'Cause I'm not exactly sure which publication I read it in.
These days, from my bed, I am devouring newspapers and news websites by the pound.
But I read this from some publication.
Halberman, of course, is writing a Trump book. After all, there is some amount of money to be made from this right now. Johathan Karl put out a highly acclaimed one. Famed writer Bob Woodward, and the New York Times, and Washington Week journalist, Robert Costa, are finishing up their joint book on the last days of the DTRump presidency. In short, Trump is a hot topic. And currently, his stuff sells.
And, it seems, plenty of former staffers wanna make sure the record is right, some may have an axe to grind, some may simply want their 'truth' to be recorded for posterity. I dunno all the motivations.
But one of the more prominent 'sources' who wishesto speak to these book-writers is......Don Trump. He has sat down for most any who has any prominence whatsoever. Karl, Woodward, Halberman, are not the only ones. He even sat down again with Michael Woolf whose other books really roughed up the image of DTrump and his White House. But he still sat down again with Woolf!
The story I read informs that DTRump's enablers are apoplectic about his willingness to sit down with authors who the enablers don't think will 'softball' him like Sean Hannity does. They specifically were adamant about sitting down with Halberman who has broke some unflattering stories about Trump that have always checked out.
But, DTRump rules at Mar A Lago. If he wants to sit down with a prominent reporter. He will. And the analysis is that he believes he is smarter than them and thus can finesse any questions or lines of inquiry they may throw at him. And he talks too much, says more than he should, about stuff he shouldn't. The smarter reporters let him roll. In sort of a 'here's-more-rope' tactic.
And when the book eventually comes out....Karl's, Michael Woolfs, Woodward's, or Loenning and Ruckers, whoever's.... it has unflattering stuff. And DTRump explodes.
And who gets blamed for it?
