Reportedly trump sometimes orders two bigmacs, two fillet of fish sandwiches and chocolate shake. the question, why so much love? is it a, because he s a man of the people? b, because he likes to eat on a budget? or c, because he has a secret fear of being poisoned? and tonight, we can tell you the answer, folks. it is c, fear of being poisoned. that s according to michael wolff s new book. trump had a long-time fear of being poisoned. he also reports when trump took office, he imposed a set of new rules. nobody touch anything, especially not his toothbrush. he would let housekeeping know when he wanted his sheets done.
And back with my political panel. we re discussing this new book that claims to reveal the inner workings of the trump campaign and trump administration. endless anecdotes. let me share one, a very interesting excerpt. president trump getting used to his new home at the white house and the housekeeping staff. quote, he imposed a set of rules, nobody touch anything, especially not his toothbrush. then it says in parenthetical, he had a longtime fear of being poisoned. one reason he liked to eat at mcdonald s. nobody knew he was coming and the food was safely premade. i don t know if that s true. that sounds like a convenient excuse to say you like mcdonald s. i think it s a 3d chess that gets you into the white house. i mean mcdonald s food does poison you, it takes decades to do it, to kill you.
I want to go back to the book for a moment the spokesperson for the legal team believed the trump tower meeting on air force one represented a likely obstruction of justice. and ultimately he quit. that s my second part. how significant is that tidbit of information? i don t think robert mueller would accept anything in the book as necessarily true or it reaches any legal conclusions. but i think it could give him potential leads. the statements by steve bannon and others would rise to the level of robert mueller wanting to look through it. read through it and see if there is anyone in there that we might want to interview. then the part about the spokesperson who quit after the air force one incident, i think, again, it s not a legal conclusion. he s not a lawyer. nobody would be bound by those opinions. i would think robert mueller would want to interview him and
we should say the word yet. we should note that there was a win with 400 electoral votes. we re going to talk to a former federal prosecutor. and more bomb shells. including who he calls weak and cry baby he. plus, it may have been solved. ot anything. even a swing set standoff. and we covered it, july first, twenty-fifteen.
From. here are a few of the excerpts. in one, wolff writes that trump and the residents of the white house imposed a set of new rules. nobody touch anything, especially not his toothbrush. he had a longtime fear of being poisoned, one reason he liked to eat at mcdonald s. nobody knew he was coming and the food was safely premade. wolff writes more seriously of a presidential pact between first daughter ivanka trump and her husband, senior adviser jared kushner. the two had made an earnest deal, if some time in the future the opportunity arose, she would be the one to run for president. the first woman president, ivanka entertained, would not be hillary clinton, it would be ivanka trump. as for ivanka s dad, the actual sitting president of the united states, quote, some believed that for all practical purposes, he was no more than semi-literate, wolff writes. he trusted his own expertise, no matter how paltry or irrelevant, more than anyone else s. wolff adds that one staffer says, deal
