Quick summation of all the recent tell-all books.




Unrolled thread here
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1308344403799560193.html

In case you don’t have time to read all the books, here’s a quick summation.

[THREAD]

1/ Peter Strzok: Putin has so much control over Donald John Trump that it’s a blinking red national security risk.

2/ Bob Woodward: Trump knew exactly in early February what the virus was & how it spread, but chose to sit on his small hands & let it spread because he thought it would help his re-election chances by killing voters in NY, NJ, and CA.

3/ Michael Cohen: Trump made “overt and covert attempts to get Russia to interfere in the 2016 election.”

4/ Mary Trump: Trump suffers from a toxic combination of mental health disorders and psychoses, and has been effectively institutionalized his entire life. If left to his own devices, he would not survive, because he can’t function in the world without lots of help.

5/ Andrew Weissman: the DOJ neutered the Mueller investigation by not allowing him to look into Trump’s finances, which is where the crimes are, and Mueller made this worse by not being more overt in the Report.

6/ Stephanie Winston Wolkoff: Melania is a grifter, too.

7/ James Comey: Trump is basically the notorious mobster Sammy the Bull.

8/ David Enrich: Deutsche Bank started off as the bank of choice for Nazis, and has not much changed its standards for clients since then.

9/ Sarah Huckabee Sanders: Trump tried to pimp me out to the only man on earth who finds me attractive.

10/ HR McMaster: [insert 800-page lecture on geopolitics]

11/ John Bolton: I was hoping to make money on what I know, but it looks like I will go to prison AND not make money. Oops.

Here's one better:

Trump is a criminal asshole. Everyone knows Trump is a criminal asshole. A little less than half of the country doesn't care, and a significant percentage aren't sure if being a criminal asshole should disqualify a person for the highest office of the land.

Yeah, me neither. Not a one came out in either term.
