Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, by Michael Wolff [View all]
My wife bought the online version of the book and I am starting to read it.
It's painful. I'm not sure I'll be able to finish it.
It struck me that Wolff paints the picture that no one on Team Trump, including Trump himself, thought that he was going to win the election against Clinton. They were certain of it. And then, when he wins, his response is not humility but to rub it in everyone's face, as if he was totally deserving of winning.
And then we have this: "Trump liked to say that one of the things that made life worth living was getting your friends' wives into bed." What. A. Guy.
It's nauseating stuff. I'm not sure if I have the stomach for it.
