Wolff's "bombshell" book may reveal some fascinating individual threads in the whole cloth

we call Trump, but the disgusting nature of the fabric has always been clearly visible to anyone willing to look. In a general sense, there's nothing new here, but I'm sure this book will dominate the next couple of weeks of "news" and commentary-----while we ratchet towards nuclear war in Korea; while Iran explodes; while our allies struggle to make their way through a hostile world without us; while our global climate steadily worsens; while racism, misogyny, homophobia and "2nd Amendment Solutions" are given the green light by the White House.

And, what of our global adversaries? Just consider this scenario as an example: we wake up tomorrow t hear that China has decided to militarily enforce their decades-old claim to our ally, Taiwan. What will be the US response? Will Trump send a congratulatory tweet to China---or use his "big button"?

....family members of Trump, especially Ivanka, and of the Kushners (Dad and Son) and the structure of both family’s business “empires”.

Mostly it confirms what I have suspected on many levels about Trump and with no surprise. One in particular is how he loves to try to score with the wives of friends and would call the husbands up and have the wives on speaker phone to show what dawgs their husbands are (and presumably then get the women to want to be with him?)

Yuck....everything about these people is filthy, disgusting, repulsive. Immoral. Criminal
