Boy what a difference between Rachel's overview of Mary Trump's book, and Maggie Haberman's [View all]

overview on Anderson Cooper‘s show

Haberman really diminished the actions of trump and his family implying it is nothing new

Rachel and Suzanne Craig exposed just how bad the actions of the whole trump family are. In my view it is a bombshell, and why trump is doing everything to stop the book, and arguing that the SC should not allow release of his tax returns

If those tax returns are what the book lays out are valid, trump should be going to jail, and why it is becoming clear that trump will not go easy if he loses the election
