[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone with a triple-digit IQ and the ability to read knows the Wolff book is true.  [/quote]

Do you mean some aspects ring true and confirm individual’s biases? Is this what you mean? And you must mean very low triple digit IQ: the author’s own note - in the beginning of the book - claims he presents conflicting representations and printed accounts of people he trusted more.

This man trusted BANNON — a man who lead a revolution and slit his own wrist during the power grab of governing. Honestly, thisfact alone shocked me bc I have NEVER even read about a strategist doing this previously in history. Learning about it in real time is fascinating palace intrique but, gossip.[/quote]

Precisely.  I'm embarrassed for the liberals who are salivating over what amounts to no more than gossip.  The author himself says it's for the reader to decide what's true.  So essentially, he's written a novel.

Exactly. [/quote]

Not exactly. The author said that there were places where there were differing accounts and he provided both to let the reader decide.

Trumpers having a really difficult time with this distinction. They also keep tipping their hand; I don't think there's a Democrat who's reading this book and not taking a jaundiced eye toward it all, using critical thinking, looking for themes.

[b]But I sense that Trumpers, like their dear leader, don't have a lot of experience with books, non-fiction or otherwise[/b].[/quote]

Funny.... nonfiction is most of what I read.  And, I am a Trump supporter. 
I can assure you that Wolff’s book is fiction.  Possibly in the fantasy realm.  [/quote]
And you haven’t noticed that half of what Trump says is fiction?[/quote]

I pay more attention to what he DOES than what he says.  Actions are what matters. 
I learned that during the Obama administration.   :D [/quote]

It's simplistic to assert a divide betweend words and action.  His tweets do things. They break down civil discourse.  They degrade us as a country. They divide Americans against each other instead of making us feel united. They embolden racists. They rachet up the buried ugliness of the American soul. They rile up both our friends, who worry about the sanity of the supposed leader of the free world, and our enemies, who are angered by his careless taunts.  They bring down our standing in the world, which turns to other countries for true leadership.
