Is Michael Wolff the most dangerous man in America? Liberals are purchasing the author’s new controversial anti-Trump book in massive numbers, even as the author himself continues to acknowledge that he wasn’t certain if the content of the book was true. Is Wolff opening up the possibility of a third World War with his phony book?

Here’s President Trump’s most recent reaction to “total loser” Michael Wolff’s book:

According to the Business Insider, the author of the explosive new book about Donald Trump’s presidency acknowledged in an author’s note that he wasn’t certain all of its content was true.

Michael Wolff, the author of “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House,” included a note at the start that casts significant doubt on the reliability of the specifics contained in the rest of its pages.

Several of his sources, he says, were definitely lying to him, while some offered accounts that flatly contradicted those of others.

But some were nonetheless included in the vivid account of the West Wing’s workings, in a process, Wolff describes as “allowing the reader to judge” whether the sources’ claims are true.

Fox News host Laura Ingraham came out hard after the author, Michael Wolff when she highlighted a sentence on a page in the controversial book and tweeted it out with the following message: From Wolff book—this is TOTALLY FALSE. I was there! “Distanced themselves from Trump”?! Total fabrication.

In other cases, the media columnist said, he did use his journalistic judgment and research to arrive at what he describes “a version of events I believe to be true.”

Here is the relevant part of the note, from the 10th page of the book’s prologue:

“Many of the accounts of what has happened in the Trump White House are in conflict with one another; many, in Trumpian fashion, are baldly untrue. These conflicts, and that looseness with the truth, if not with reality itself, are an elemental thread of the book.

“Sometimes I have let the players offer their versions, in turn allowing the reader to judge them. In other instances, I have, through a consistency in the accounts and through sources I have come to trust, settled on a version of events I believe to be true.”

The book itself, reviewed by Business Insider from a copy acquired prior to its Friday publication, is not always clear about what level of confidence the author has in any particular assertion.

Yet today, a Chinese news source published the following passages from the controversial author that could be opening a can of worms.  Keep in mind, these excerpts are from a book written by an author who admittedly can’t confirm if his book is true…

According to the South China Morning Post:

An “all-encompassing” war with China was one of the earliest objectives of President Donald Trump’s chief strategist, Steve Bannon, according to Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, a controversial, behind-the-scenes-account of the US leader’s first year in office.

“The real enemy, said an on-point Bannon, careful not to defend Trump too much or to diss him at all, was China,” author Michael Wolff wrote in an account of a strategy session two weeks ahead of Trump’s inauguration.

“China was the first front in a new cold war,” Wolff wrote, summarising Bannon’s message to former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes at the meeting.

“China is where Nazi Germany was in 1929 to 1930,” Wolff quoted Bannon as saying. “The Chinese, like the Germans, are the most rational people in the world, until they’re not. And they’re gonna flip like Germany in the ‘thirties. You’re going to have a hyper-nationalist state, and once that happens, you can’t put the genie back in the bottle.”

Oh well, no big deal. It might be true, maybe not.

In the meantime, Channel News Asia is reporting that China’s Leader Xi Jinping is suddenly ramping up his military:

President Xi Jinping has issued a blunt call for China’s military to be ready for war and unafraid to die defending the country, as geopolitical tensions mount in Asia.

Xi’s exhortation to the world’s largest fighting force, parts of which were revealed only late Thursday, came during what state media characterized as a rare address by the Chinese leader to the country’s entire military.

Xi cemented his status as China’s most powerful leader in decades during an October Communist Party congress, and this week’s rhetoric and images of massed soldiers and tanks seemed designed to back up his new strongman image.

China’s military personnel should “neither fear hardship nor death,” Xi told thousands of military personnel during an inspection visit Wednesday to the People’s Liberation Army’s Central Theater Command in northern Hebei province, according to the official Xinhua news agency.

Xi only made these comments this past week at the same time that Wolff’s book is being released.

No wonder President Trump is so angry and wanted the book to be prevented from being released. –Gateway Pundit
