As we all know by now, Michael Wolff’s “Fire and Fury” is riddled with typos, inaccuracies, and just plain B.S. But the only thing that matters is that it feels true, and he absolutely stands by it:
Michael Wolff tells @TheView he never doubted his book, and "the weirder thing" was that he had such access: "There can be no better proof of the basic thesis of the book: this guy does not know how to be president." https://t.co/ad53kbv2Cp pic.twitter.com/4cYOIARXAP

So, Wolff’s “proof” of Trump’s unfitness to be president is that Trump’s pissed about his super-sketchy book? Do we have that right?

The fact that Trump has a thin skin is a pretty tough one to dispute, but Wolff isn’t doing himself any favors here, either.

Ha!
You gotta admit, that’s not the worst argument.

It’s not totally wrong is the thing.
