Donald Trump was "befuddled" by his election win, did not enjoy his inauguration and was
scared of the White House, according to a new book.


Journalist Michael Wolff's Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House also purports

to lift the lid on Ivanka Trump's secret presidential ambitions.

The book details Mr Trump's regard for media titan Rupert Murdoch,

though the admiration was apparently not mutual.

The White House said the book was full of "false and misleading accounts".

Michael Wolff says his work is based on more than 200 interviews and that he took up

"something like a semi-permanent seat on a couch in the West Wing" following

the president's inauguration for a close-up insight into the fledgling administration.

Here are 11 of the book's revelations, with commentary from the BBC's Anthony Zurcher.

1. Bannon thought Don Jr meeting 'treasonous'

According to the book, former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon thought a meeting

between Donald Trump Jr and a group of Russians was "treasonous".

The Russians had offered Donald Trump Jr damaging information on Hillary Clinton at the June 2016 meeting.

Wolff writes that Bannon told him of the meeting:

"The three senior guys in the campaign thought it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government
inside Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor - with no lawyers.
They didn't have any lawyers. Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, or unpatriotic,
or bad s***, and I happen to think it's all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately."


Bannon reportedly said the Justice Department investigation into links between the Trump campaign

and Moscow would focus on money laundering, adding:

"They're going to crack Don Junior like an egg on national TV."

Anthony Zurcher: In just a few sentences, Bannon manages to detonate a bomb under the
White House's efforts to downplay the significance of that fateful June meeting in Trump Tower
and their attempt to dismiss Robert Mueller's inquiry as a partisan witchhunt.
It's bad, Bannon is saying, and even more unforgivably it was stupid.
Taking aim at Mr Trump's own family in the most personal terms makes it all the more biting.


2. Trump 'befuddled' by his victory
In an article for NYMag adapted from his book, Wolff describes the amazement

- and dismay - in the Trump camp at his November 2016 election win.

"Shortly after 8pm on Election Night, when the unexpected trend - Trump might actually win
- seemed confirmed, Don Jr told a friend that his father, or DJT, as he calls him,
looked as if he had seen a ghost. Melania was in tears - and not of joy.
There was, in the space of little more than an hour, in Steve Bannon's not unamused observation,
a befuddled Trump morphing into a disbelieving Trump and then into a horrified Trump.
But still to come was the final transformation: Suddenly, Donald Trump became a man who believed
that he deserved to be, and was wholly capable of being, the president of the United States."


AZ: This is decidedly different from what has been recited by the Trump circle since election night.
While campaign hands - at least the less-than-dedicated ones - may have been positioning themselves
for a soft landing after a defeat, Mr Trump and his close allies believed in their success.
A "horrified Trump" was never part of the script.

3. Trump 'angry' at inauguration
Wolff writes:

"Trump did not enjoy his own inauguration. He was angry that A-level stars had snubbed the event,
disgruntled with the accommodations at Blair House, and visibly fighting with his wife, who seemed
on the verge of tears. Throughout the day, he wore what some around him had taken
to calling his golf face: angry and pissed off, shoulders hunched, arms swinging, brow furled, lips pursed."


But the first lady's office rejected the claims.

Communications director Stephanie Grisham said in a statement: "Mrs Trump supported her husband's

decision to run for President and in fact, encouraged him to do so. She was confident he would

win and was very happy when he did."

AZ: These words tell the same story as the viral video clip of a stone-faced Melania forcing a smile
when the president looks her way. It also explains why Mr Trump was so insistent about the
success of his inauguration and the size of his crowds.
He felt slighted and aggrieved and was acting accordingly.

4. Trump loved 'pursuing' friends' wives

According to another excerpt from the book, obtained by US media, Mr Trump used to boast that

sleeping with his friends' wives made "life worth living".

"In pursuing a friend's wife, he would try to persuade the wife that her husband was perhaps
not what she thought,"
Wolff quotes a Trump friend as saying.

He would invite the wife to secretly listen on speakerphone to a conversation that Mr Trump

would have in his office with her husband, according to the book.

Mr Trump would allegedly engage in sexual banter with the husband in the hope

that he might say something indiscreet, asking questions such as:

"Do you still like having sex with your wife? How often?"


5. Trump found White House 'scary'
Wolff writes:

"Trump, in fact, found the White House to be vexing and even a little scary.
He retreated to his own bedroom -
the first time since the Kennedy White House that a
presidential couple had maintained separate rooms. In the first days,
he ordered two television screens in addition to the one already there, and a lock on the door,
precipitating a brief standoff with the Secret Service,
who insisted they have access to the room."


AZ: For much of his adult life, Mr Trump has lived according to his own rules,
as a real-estate tycoon whose wealth allowed his every whim or idiosyncrasy to be accommodated.Adjusting to the White House - which Bill Clinton
once referred to as the "crown jewel of the federal penitentiary system"
and Harry Truman called "the great white jail" -
must have been quite a shock.
 
6. Ivanka hopes to be president

Mr Trump's daughter and her husband Jared Kushner allegedly struck a deal that she might run

for president in future, according to Wolff:
_99457175_gettyimages-511450442.jpg

"Balancing risk against reward, both Jared and Ivanka decided to accept roles in the
West Wing over the advice of almost everyone they knew. It was a joint decision
by the couple, and, in some sense, a joint job. Between themselves, the two had
made an earnest deal: If sometime in the future the opportunity arose, she'd be
the one to run for president. The first woman president, Ivanka entertained,
would not be Hillary Clinton; it would be Ivanka Trump. Bannon, who had coined
the term 'Jarvanka' that was now in ever greater use in the White House,
was horrified when the couple's deal was reported to him."


AZ: The feud between Bannon and "Jarvanka" was no secret, and it certainly wasn't surprising.
In a way, the couple represented to Bannon everything he's fighting against - East Coast
elitism and entitlement. Yet, thanks to familial ties, they had the president's ear and -
this new book claims - harboured dynastic hopes.

7. Ivanka mocks dad's 'comb-over'

The US first daughter poked fun at her father's alleged "scalp-reduction surgery",

according to the book.

"She treated her father with a degree of detachment, even irony, going so far as to make fun of
his comb-over to others. She often described the mechanics behind it to friends: an
absolutely clean pate - a contained island after scalp-reduction -surgery -
surrounded by a furry circle of hair around the sides and front, from which all ends are
drawn up to meet in the center and then swept back and secured by a stiffening spray.
The color, she would point out to comical effect, was from a product called
Just for Men - the longer it was left on, the darker it got.
Impatience resulted in Trump's orange-blond hair color."


AZ: It wouldn't be particularly surprising if this is one of the anecdotes that Mr Trump finds
most irksome. The president is proud of his hair, and once notably let late-night host Jimmy
Fallon ruffle it to establish its authenticity. On windy days, Mr Trump usually wears a hat -
the origin of the Make America Great Again ball cap - to ensure there are no coiffing
malfunctions. The hair is as much a part of the Trump brand as big hotels and gold-plated escalators.

8. White House unsure of priorities
Katie Walsh, the White House deputy chief of staff, asked Mr Kushner, the president's
senior adviser, what the administration wanted to achieve.

But according to the book, Mr Kushner did not have an answer.

"'Just give me the three things the president wants to focus on,' she [Katie Walsh]
demanded. 'What are the three priorities of this White House?'
It was the most basic question imaginable - one that any qualified presidential
candidate would have answered long before he took up residence
at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Six weeks into
Trump's presidency, Kushner was wholly without an answer. 'Yes,' he said to Walsh.
'We should probably have that conversation.'"


AZ: It often takes a new administration a bit of time to find its footing. In Mr Trump's
case,the situation was particularly acute. Having campaigned on some clear policy
items - strengthened borders, renegotiated trade deals, a sweeping tax cut and
Obamacare repeal - prioritising was clearly a challenge. Once in the White House,
he allowed Congress to kick off with healthcare reform, and the difficulties achieving
that goal haunted the Trump presidency for nearly a year.

9. Trump's admiration for Murdoch

Wolff, who previously wrote a biography of Rupert Murdoch, describes Mr Trump's high regard for the News Corp media titan.

"Rupert Murdoch, who had promised to pay a call on the president-elect, was running late.
When some of the guests made a move to leave, an increasingly agitated
Trump assured them that Rupert was on his way. 'He's one of the greats,
the last of the greats,' Trump said. 'You have to stay to see him.' Not grasping that he
was now the most powerful man in the world, Trump was still trying mightily to
curry favor with a media mogul who had long disdained him as a charlatan and fool."


AZ: During the campaign, Mr Trump had at times feuded with Murdoch's Fox News -
fighting with presenter Megyn Kelly, boycotting the network and skipping a
Fox-broadcast primary debate. The president, however, is one of Fox News' biggest fans -
and the network has become his greatest advocate since his inauguration.

10. Murdoch calls Trump 'idiot'

But the admiration was not mutual, according to Wolff's account of a call between Mr Murdoch

and Mr Trump about the president's meeting with Silicon Valley executives.

Mr Trump is said to have told Mr Murdoch:

"'These guys really need my help. Obama was not very favorable to them, too much
regulation. This is really an opportunity for me to help them.' 'Donald,' said Murdoch
, 'for eight years these guys had Obama in their pocket. They practically ran the
administration. They don't need your help.'


'Take this H-1B visa issue. They really need these H-1B visas.'Murdoch suggested that
taking a liberal approach to H-1B visas, which open America's doors to select immigrants,
might be hard to square with his promises to build a wall and close the borders.
But Trump seemed unconcerned, assuring Murdoch, 'We'll figure it out.' 'What a f****** idiot,'
said Murdoch, shrugging, as he got off the phone."


AZ: There's sometimes been a disconnect between Mr Trump's anti-immigration rhetoric
and his action as a businessman, where his companies often relied on immigrant labour.
Perhaps the president-elect was reflecting his business sensibilities. Or maybe, in this case,
he was simply echoing the opinion of the last group of people who had met with him -
a criticism that has been lobbed his way on more than one occasion.

_99457257_gettyimages-883653676.jpg


11. Flynn knew Russia ties 'a problem'

Former US National Security Adviser Mike Flynn knew that accepting money from Moscow for a

speech could come back to haunt him, according to the book.

Wolff writes that before the election Mr Flynn "had been told by friends that it had not been a

good idea to take $45,000 from the Russians for a speech.

'Well it would only be a problem if we won,' he assured them."

Mr Flynn has been indicted in the Justice Department special counsel's inquiry.

AZ: Like Paul Manafort, Flynn was one of the members of the Trump campaign's inner
circle whose prior affairs were not ordered in a way that would, shall we say, stand up
to close legal scrutiny. If Mr Trump had been defeated, that probably wouldn't have mattered.
Like the protaganists in the film The Producers, however, their success was their undoing.

Was their intent to destroy our system of government?
Buchanan's complete ineptitude was moving our gubment in that direction.
Pierce love him some slaves. Bigly.

Both of those conservative assclowns were losers, very bigly.

That's not to say Drumpf isnt quickly closing in on the worst president of all time award, he just hasn't hit it yet.
 
tRUmp and his stooges have openly admitted that all his appointments were intended to destroy the departments they were installed in.
I agree with your observation, however, it hasn't happened yet. So far all that's happened is he's made the entire country the laughing stock of the world. The only "accomplishment" he's done is pass a tax bill that helps only the wealthy and take away programs that help the poor and middle class. Those can all be reversed in short order. The market is doing very well and unemployment is very low (thanks Obama).

Once shit starts falling apart, which I'm convinced it will in short time, I will be standing right there with you.

If we were to base his presidential rating on his maturity and intelligence, then I'd say yes, hands down he is by far the worst president the United States has ever seen.

A new book by Michael Wolff offers an insider look at President Donald Trump’s candidacy and first year in office, and reveals dozens of fascinating details about the administration.

The book, Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, was written after what Wolff claims were more than 200 interviews with the president and his inner circle. Trump, along with a representative for first lady Melania Trump and press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, has already decried some of the book’s allegations, saying they are untrue.

Here are some of the most explosive details revealed in the book, which will be published next week.

1. Steve Bannon, Trump’s former chief strategist, described a meeting set up by Donald Trump Jr. with a Kremlin-linked Russian lawyer during the 2016 campaign as “treasonous” and “unpatriotic.” “They’re going to crack Don Junior like an egg on national TV,” Bannon is quoted as saying.

2. Bannon reportedly said the president likely met with the meeting’s participants afterward, speculating that Trump’s son brought them up to his father’s office. “The chance that Don Jr. did not walk these jumos up to his father’s office on the twenty-sixth floor is zero,” Bannon said.

3. Trump didn’t want to win, and no one in his campaign thought he would win. “Well, it would only be a problem if we won,” former national security adviser Michael Flynn assured his friends about his decision to accept $45,000 for a speech in Russia.

4. Trump’s daughter Ivanka described Trump’s hair as a perfectly engineered hairdo that takes many steps to complete. “She often described the mechanics behind it to friends: an absolutely clean pate—a contained island after scalp-reduction surgery—surrounded by a furry circle of hair around the sides and front, from which all ends are drawn up to meet in the center and then swept back and secured by a stiffening spray,” the book says.

5. Trump wondered what a golden shower was after hearing reports of the intelligence dossier that alleges that Russian security forces have compromising details about the president. “Having dispensed with [CNN chief Jeff] Zucker, the president of the United States went on to speculate on what was involved with a golden shower,” Wolff writes.

6. Trump would speculate on the flaws of his staff after hanging up the phone with them. "Bannon was disloyal (not to mention he always looks like shit). [Reince] Priebus was weak (not to mention he was short—a midget)," Wolff recalls about Trump's reflections. "[Jared] Kushner was a suck-up. Sean Spicer was stupid (and looks terrible too). Conway was a crybaby. Jared and Ivanka should never have come to Washington."

7. Ivanka and husband Jared Kushner agreed that if one of them were to run for president in the future, it would be her. “They didn’t say that?” said Bannon upon learning about the deal. “Stop. Oh, come on. They didn’t actually say that? Please don’t tell me that. Oh my God.”

8. Trump eats at McDonald’s so often out of paranoia and because he is a germaphobe. "Long afraid of being poisoned, he would say that one reason why he liked to eat at McDonald's was because nobody knew he was coming and the food was safely prepared," the book says.


9. Trump asked Hope Hicks, the White House communications director who had dated former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, why she was worried about Lewandowski's bad press after he got fired. "You've already done enough for him,” Trump apparently said. “You're the best piece of tail he'll ever have."

10. Hicks and Trump had a very close relationship, and Trump's inner circle saw her as something of a daughter to the president. "[Hope] Hicks was in fact thought of as Trump’s real daughter, while Ivanka was thought of as his real wife,” the book states.

11. As a candidate, Trump had no interest in learning about the Constitution, which he knew very little about. “I got as far as the Fourth Amendment, before his finger is pulling down on his lip and his eyes are rolling back in his head,” said Sam Nunberg, a former adviser to the Trump campaign.

12. Trump used derogatory language to express his anger toward Sally Yates. “Trump conceived an early, obsessive antipathy for Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates,” the book reads. “She was, he steamed, ‘such a c---.’”

13. Trump didn't enjoy his own inauguration. "He was angry that A-level stars had snubbed the event, disgruntled with the accommodations at Blair House, and visibly fighting with his wife, who seemed on the verge of tears," the book claims.

14. Trump reassured Melania that he would not win the election. On election night, when it became clear that he would win, "Melania was in tears—and not of joy."

15. The travel ban was passed on a Friday so that people would protest at airports. Asked why the timing was on a weekend, Bannon said, “So the snowflakes would show up at the airports and riot.”

16. Trump never reads. “He didn’t process information in any conventional sense. He didn’t read. He didn’t really even skim. Some believed that for all practical purposes he was no more than semiliterate,” the book says.

17. Trump would mention getting in bed with other women. “Trump liked to say that one of the things that made life worth living was getting your friends’ wives into bed,” the book claims.

18. Trump offered to marry TV hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. “You guys should just get married,” Trump told them. “I can marry you! I’m an internet Unitarian minister,” Kushner said. “What?” said the president. “What are you talking about? Why would they want you to marry them when I could marry them? When they could be married by the president! At Mar-a-Lago!”

19. The president's lifestyle followed many unusual routines. "If he was not having his 6:30 dinner with Steve Bannon, then, more to his liking, he was in bed by that time with a cheeseburger, watching his three screens and making phone calls," the book says.

20. Trump would share private details about himself, then get upset when information was leaked. "As details of Trump’s personal life leaked out, he became obsessed with identifying the leaker. The source of all the gossip, however, may well have been Trump himself," Wolff writes. "In his calls throughout the day and at night from his bed, he often spoke to people who had no reason to keep his confidences."

20. Trump would share private details about himself, then get upset when information was leaked. "As details of Trump’s personal life leaked out, he became obsessed with identifying the leaker. The source of all the gossip, however, may well have been Trump himself," Wolff writes. "In his calls throughout the day and at night from his bed, he often spoke to people who had no reason to keep his confidences."

The only topics of interest were the first two. The rest are salacious details that belong in National Enquirer.
 
I agree with your observation, however, it hasn't happened yet. So far all that's happened is he's made the entire country the laughing stock of the world. The only "accomplishment" he's done is pass a tax bill that helps only the wealthy and take away programs that help the poor and middle class. Those can all be reversed in short order. The market is doing very well and unemployment is very low (thanks Obama).

Once shit starts falling apart, which I'm convinced it will in short time, I will be standing right there with you.

If we were to base his presidential rating on his maturity and intelligence, then I'd say yes, hands down he is by far the worst president the United States has ever seen.

Luckily he's a incompetent asshole in the throws of dementia that ruins everything he touches or our country would already be in ruins.
 
Shits getting louder.......day 2 :

Trump seen as a child by staff, says Fire and Fury author Michael Wolff

What is in the book?
The book cites former top aide Steve Bannon as describing a meeting at Trump Tower in New York between

a Russian lawyer and Trump election campaign officials, including Mr Trump's son Donald Jr, as "treasonous".

Both Mr Trump Jr and his father deny that any collusion with Russians to win the election took place.

However Mr Bannon is quoted in the book as saying: "They're going to crack Don Junior like an egg on national TV."

The meeting is being investigated by Special Counsel Robert Mueller as part of his inquiry

into possible collusion between Trump campaign officials and Russians.

The book makes many other claims, including that:

  • The Trump team was shocked and horrified by his election win
  • His wife, Melania, was in tears of sadness on election night
  • Mr Trump was angry that A-list stars had snubbed his inauguration
  • The new president "found the White House to be vexing and even a little scary"
  • His daughter, Ivanka, had a plan with her husband, Jared Kushner, that she would be "the first woman president"
  • Ivanka Trump mocked her dad's "comb-over" hairstyle and "often described the mechanics behind it to friends"
