A new book from a familiar “So-called ‘Author'” had the president lashing out over the “total FAKE JOB” claiming to contain behind-the-scenes statements about Elon Musk and more.
Monetizing Trump Derangement Syndrome has proven to be a lucrative enterprise time and again for leftists and once again journalist Michael Wolff has turned his attention to the GOP leader. Of course, ahead of the forthcoming release of “All or Nothing: How Trump Recaptured America,” President Donald Trump had no qualms about sharing what he really thought of the “total LOSER” while he revealed a key issue with the newest claims.
“So-called ‘Author’ Michael Wolff’s new book is a total FAKE JOB, just like the other JUNK he wrote,” began Sunday Truth Social post. “He called me many times trying to set up a meeting, but I never called him back because I didn’t want to give him the credibility of an interview. Others in the Administration were called, they reported his calls, and likewise, did not talk to him.”
“I assume, however, he was able to speak to a small number of people, but not meaningfully. His other books about me have been discredited, as this one will be also. I am one who believes in commenting about FAKE NEWS, or made up stories, even if you have to ‘punch low,’ and shouldn’t be wasting the time required to do so,” continued the president.
Early reports on the contents of Wolff’s book included allegations that Trump had reacted poorly to Musk’s appearance at his second Butler, Pennsylvania rally.
“What the f*** is wrong with this guy?” the president was purported to have said about the world’s richest man who leaped for joy on stage as he fully endorsed the Republican candidate. “And why doesn’t his shirt fit?”

Trump continued to slam Wolff’s book in his post adding, “We had one of the Greatest Elections in History, and perhaps the Greatest First Month EVER, according to almost everybody, but Wolff doesn’t want to talk about that. He mentions the people that surrounded me during the Election, and in many cases now, in derogatory terms, but they couldn’t have been that bad because here I am in the White House, refusing to take his calls.”
“Wolff says he has sources, but he doesn’t have them, it’s a LIE, as is the case with many so-called ‘journalists.’ If he has sources, let them be revealed,” remarked the president. “Watch, it will never happen. He is FAKE NEWS, a total LOSER, and no one should waste their time or money in buying this boring and obviously fictitious book!”
Other claims from the book suggested Musk had said, “I’ve really no interest in speaking to a vice president,” with regard to Vice President J.D. Vance, and that Trump had brought up viral questions on the sex of former First Lady Michelle Obama.
“People call her ‘Mike’ you know. You know that don’t you?” the president was alleged to have said, continuing, “They think she looks pretty manly. Those very big shoulders. What’s that about? That’s what people will call her if she runs, ‘Mike.’ That’s the name she’ll have: ‘Mike.'”
Further claims were made about disparaging remarks toward Trump’s legal defense who have since been appointed to positions in the Justice Department.
In a statement to multiple media outlets, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung asserted, “Michael Wolff is a lying sack of sh*t and has been proven to be a fraud.”
“He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain,” he went on.
Similarly, 2024 co-campaign manager Chris LaCivita and White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Jason Miller stated, “Michael Wolff’s latest work of fiction is total garbage and should be completely disregarded. The scenes are imaginary, the conversations are fake, the dialogue is made up, and once again, just like his other books falsely attacking President Trump, nobody believes any of it. It’s been widely reported that Wolff’s previous works have been riddled with inaccuracies and copy-editing mistakes, and this is no different.”

Likewise, when serving as White House press secretary during the first Trump administration, now-Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that Wolff’s book “Fire and Fury” was filled with “mistake after mistake after mistake” and referred to his work as “tabloid gossip.”
“I think you have to look at this author’s track record,” she argued.
When challenged directly on claims and errors in a previous book about Trump, Wolff told Yahoo News’s Michael Isikoff, “Even if was wrong, I’m not going to admit it to you.”
