Donald Trump ghostwriter Tony Schwartz has been slapped with a cease and desist letter after calling out the wannabe President as a “sociopath,” the journalist said Wednesday.

“It’s nuts and completely indicative of who he is,” Schwartz — who co-authored 1987’s bestselling “The Art of the Deal” — told Rachel Maddow.

The cease and desist comes in response to Schwartz’s damning tell-all interview with The New Yorker earlier this week.

"I put lipstick on a pig," he told the mag. "I feel a deep sense of remorse that I contributed to presenting Trump in a way that brought him wider attention and made him more appealing than he is."
