    Women getting their panties in a bunch. I haven't read the book so don't know if you can draw a conclusion that Nikki is the affair in question, seemed like it was internet gossip and now Wolff gets to be the punching bag for anchors to have their feminist moment.

  2. What they give they can take away. Kudos to Mika. Dude made his money though and I don't think any refunds will be forthcoming for his book of fiction sold as fact. And that, Mika and company helped to do.

    Thing is kudos for what? Was the innuendo there about Haley or did people just run wild with speculation?

  4. Both I would say, but kudos to Mika for finally putting and end to it right out for everyone to see. I'll give credit where credit is due. The guy had a good thing going, took advantage of all the leftist anti Trump hysteria, had the media hyping his book of fiction, and then, being a leftist, did the predictable. He went over the top with an accusation for which there was zero evidence. Now you can do that with alleging Russian spies all day and night, no problemo, but you can't accuse a woman of whoring her way to a job without plenty of actual evidence. Not in this climate you can't. Doubt he's losing any sleep over it. He had his payday and some time in the spotlight.

    I'm guessing you read the book then?

  6. Didn't have to. The man who wrote it admits the book was fiction.

    In his prologue, Wolff writes, as Business Insider noted: “Many of the accounts of what has happened in the Trump White House are in conflict with one another; many, in Trumpian fashion, are boldly untrue. These conflicts, and that looseness with the truth, if not with reality itself, are an elemental thread of the book.”
    In other words: Take with a grain of salt, Dear Reader, what you read.
    So why did Wolff include the maybe-maybe not true statements?
    “Sometimes,” he wrote, “I have let the players offer their versions, in turn allowing the reader to judge them.
