Who said that? Aside from some Trump supporters?

You know who are having wet dreams right now? Michael Wolff and his publisher.

You cannot pay for better publicity than having the President’s lawyers send a letter threatening a defamation suit. The man just cannot let a controversy blow over. He has to respond. Even when it’s to his own detriment.

Best thing that could happen to this book. This will make it a best seller.

Yes. Yes he did.

Pro tip: When a book is about to come out making a mockery of you, whether true or untrue, don't give it legs by guaranteeing it dominates the next 48 hours of the news cycle.

I now plan in picking it up. If they are this pissed at least a good chunk has to be based in fact right?

More importantly who in the **** gave Michael Wolff unfettered access. Didn't someone there read the Ailes book?

Didn’t you hear the real deal from the resident Trumpettes? This is all part of Trump’s diabolical 46-part plan to confound and frustrate the libs and press.

Just get on board with the winning and enjoy the show

It's currently the #1 best seller on Amazon, won't be released until next Tuesday.

I wouldn't bet on the fact part. Wolff is apparently well known as a gossip monger. Rumor has it that he quotes a lot of people without fact-checking what they said. He doesn't claim that they are telling the truth, just that they said it.

I knew it! Trump and Bannon are working together on a false flag mission. Trump pretends to hate Bannon, and Bannon worms his way into the opposition camps and sabotages everything they are doing.

Murdoch book. Easy mistake given the close relationship. Gabriel Sherman wrote the Ailes bio. I didn’t read the Murdoch book but would highly recommend Sherman’s “The Loudest Voice In The Room” for context on the amazing Fox News phenomena.

Given the subject matter, it would have been a #1 bestseller regardless of the Pavlovian Trump stumbles.

But the access given to a guy with serious Page 6 cred is astonishing. You sleep with dogs...

No, in this case, it's "you let a dog sleep with you...."
