Books don't make you brave - Trump administration officials should have spoken up when it actually

mattered instead of whining to authors after the fact

"I Alone Can Fix It: Donald J. Trump's Catastrophic Final Year" by Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker.

"The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir" by John Bolton.

"Peril: Trump in the White House" by Bob Woodward and Robert Costa.

"Front Row at the Trump Show" by Jonathan Karl.

These are all recent books that have been written about the problematic events that transpired inside the Trump White House.

-snip-

These books rely on details from former administration officials, many of whom are attempting to portray themselves as defenders of democracy and a guardrail to protect America from its own president. It's unfortunate that these officials chose to wait until after Trump left office to come forward and share with the American people and the world, through interviews with the authors, what they saw and experienced.

is where you Should Have Spoke The Fuck Up.

Not going to pay one red goddamn cent for what you have to say about it afterward.

I DO like those pictures of you coming to work at WH and finding yourself locked out, though. The only funny thing tfg ever did, besides trying to impress a porn star with his sexual prowess.
