DJT certainly acted as though he believed what was said about bannon in the book; that’s why trump nuked him with that statement.
so, I’ll accept it from the horse’s mouth, thank you.
Yes, he did. To contradict Trump is to keep this whole thing going far longer than it needs to. If Bannon is still a friend he is going to want this story to die as quickly as possible both for the president’s sake and for his own.
