https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/25/politics/anonymous-trump-official-book-private-conversations/index.htmlWashington (CNN)The anonymous senior Trump administration official, who previously alleged that there's an internal administration resistance to President Donald Trump, plans to recount the President's conversations in their forthcoming book.
According to Axios, which first reported that the conversations will be recounted in the book, the anonymous official was a frequent participant in meetings with the President and had access to internal notes they plan to include in their new book on Trump, "A Warning."
"In these pages, you will not just hear from me. You will hear a great deal from Donald Trump directly, for there is no better witness to his character than his own words and no better evidence of the danger he poses than his own conduct," the book's back cover reads.

"The truth about the president must be spoken, not after Americans have stood in the voting booth to consider whether to give him another term and not after he has departed office," the book's jacket cover says.. "Hopefully others will remedy the error of silence and choose to speak out."

(16,616 posts)I say this because it's easy to be anonymous in 600 words, but not 350 pages, recounting specific meetings, etc. Think about how easy it is to figure out the sources in a Woodward book. I think this person may have left the White House and is ready to have his or her cover blown.

BULLY FOR ANONYMOUS.
that's precisely what we need. What good did those who quit and complained from the outside really do?
This is somebody who was trusted enough, dogged enough, clever enough to stay on the inside, not lose sight of the prize, and now is ready to pounce Just in time to give even more fodder to the fire that is raging around the monster.
Bravo!
