Fire And Fury author Michael Wolff flees Today interview after questions over Trump’s affairs

THE author of the explosive new Donald Trump biography Fire And Fury has taken his cue from the title and stormed out of an Australian breakfast TV interview.

Appearing in an interview with Ben Fordham on Today, Michael Wolff - crossing from London - was grilled on a range of topics relating to the US President, from gun control to North Korea.

But it was when talk turned to Trump’s alleged infidelities that it all went south.

“You said during a TV interview last month that you are absolutely sure that Donald Trump is currently having an affair, while President, behind the back of the First Lady. I repeat, you said you were absolutely sure,” asked Fordham, who was filling in for Karl Stefanovic.

Despite no technical issues beforehand, Wolff immediately insisted he could no longer hear the TV host.

“Hold on, I can’t ...” he muttered, as he fiddled with his earpiece.

“Last week, you backflipped and said, ‘I do not know if the President is having an affair.’ Do you owe the President and the First Lady an apology, Mr Wolff?” Fordham pressed.

“I can’t hear you. Hello?” Wolff responded.

.....

“You are not hearing me, Mr Wolff?” Fordham asked, as Wolff dismantled his earpiece and got up to walk away. “Mr Wolff was hearing me before, but he’s not hearing me anymore ... So the interview may be over.”

It certainly was — by then, Wolff had walked off set completely.

Later, the Today show revisited the drama, and played footage from the UK studio.

In the video, Fordham’s voice repeating his question could clearly be heard at Wolff’s end.

I tried posting this a few minutes ago. I don't know if I pressed the wrong button and didn't actually post, or if there was some sort of glitch, but it never seems to have appeared.

It's possible that it was instantly deleted - but it would have been extremely fast, so I am thinking a mistake on my end, or a glitch is more likely which is why I am reposting. But if there is a reason this post is being deleted, could the admin doing that please message me and let me know, so I know it's not a glitch, but some specific problem with the post.

Not to mention all of the losers that actually bought copies.

He’s a lying fag...?

Well, yes, but now he’s being used as a whipping boy for a press that now realize the public knows that more and more of them are lying their as$es off even WORSE than he is.

They’re making him serve in a diversionary role for them so THEY can keep doing what he was doing.

Let’s see how many went to book stores (they still exist) and are returned as unsold.

It must have been the questions.

Matt Lauer wasn't there to sexually abuse him, so it must have been the questions that made him uncomfortable.

It’s a trade site that you have to subscribe to (NOT cheap) called Bookscan that shows actual sales, not just “shipped”.

Can you look up Jordan Peterson’s book 12 Rules for Life:An Antidote For Chaos to find out how many copies sold? Thanks.

I don’t subscribe. My agent does. He usually only tells me my sakes.

Thanks naturalman1975. Wolff and Steele will either spend their final years in prison, or they won't have any final years.
