Michael Wolff on Trump—”Every Time You Speak to Him, You Think: This is a Wingnut”
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/08/2018 6:01:03 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

It’s not exactly breaking news that Michael Wolff believes that Donald Trump is unfit to be President of the United States. That’s the entire thrust of his “Fire and Fury.”

But appearing on Morning Joe today, Wolff used a colorful phrase in describing Trump, one that epitomized his low opinion the man. Asked by Joe Scarborough whether Trump was “mentally fit” to be president, Wolff responded:

“Every time you speak to him, you think: this is a wingnut. There is something really alarming in ways that you cannot even begin to describe. It’s like you’re riveted to the seat.”

“He has such an intellectual way of speaking, lol.”

Interesting observation. I watched the entire, lengthy interview, and was struck by how much he stumbled, had difficulty speaking in coherent sentences, etc.

Michael Wolff is a student of Mary Mapes and Dan Rather "journalism".

Wolff is unfit to be a writer, or to write at all (like in a blog).

Sounds like this author is into auto-coprophagy.

Michael Wolff. Every time I see and hear him, I think “This is a faggot”.

Yep.

Goes right along with the "must have drama" of his statements about the book.

Saw him on CBS “This Morning” and frankly, for the first time, Norah O’Donnell appeared skeptical as this guy made a fool of himself. Frankly, he was so unbelievable that the “This Morning” folks appeared to question his lack of substance, and that’s saying a lot.

And every time you speak, mr. genius, I think: this is the guy who has already admitted that he wasn’t able to “source” most of his book - that’s tard propagandist talk for I based my book on made up gossip.

The guy looks like a wingnut - I’d wager he asked a homosexual ‘partner” to F his brains out and the guy performed and anal-entry brainectomy on him.

The “Wingnut” beat countless Republican contenders, including the Bush Dynasty. Then, “Wingnut” beat Cankles and her Billions of Foreign money.

I would conclude that is a condemnation of the professional political class

“Every time you speak to him, you think: this is a wingnut. “

Question: How many times has this guy ever spoken to Trump?

He’s a queer—well known. Staff writer for The Hollywood Reporter. The Feb. 2017 interview between him and Brian Stelter speaks volumes about what Wolff has been about— lying to get “close” to those he could in Trump WH, and that happened to be the very self important Bannon, now ousted and pissed off. Bannon August 2016, same time as Manafort. Placed there both by Mercers who had supported Cruz through the primaries. Quite telling CNN interview on that show of Stelter’s “informed sources” (how ironic).

A couple minutes of Glenn Beck today...”there is enough in the book that you should read it; even if only 50% is true”...

Glenn Beck...yep, wacko.

Because the ENTIRE, crazed left actually believe that stopping 0bama’s socialism, ending awful regulations, producing jobs, bringing jobs and corporate $$ back home and a safer America (muslim ban, border wall) is just downright crazy.

You’re picturing Wolff talking to Trump on his TV screen .. and then his imaginary friend, President Trump, answers him. Right?

Maybe ‘wingnut’ means ‘deplorable’... means that President Trump is NOT a phony blowhard ‘elite’. Means Trump is ‘one of the people’ - it’s a compliment.
