In his forthcoming book Devil's Bargain, Bloomberg Businessweek's Joshua Green writes President Trump didn't have a victory speech prepared on election night, per the Daily Mail. Also on election night, Green writes, Trump became enraged when Chris Christie suggested that Barack Obama call his phone when he reached out to congratulate Trump a move which contributed to their falling out. Christie's office says that's "complete fiction." Other nuggets:
How Trump reportedly chewed out then-campaign manager Paul Manafort: After reports that his aides went on TV to reach Trump, Trump reportedly yelled "'Am I like a baby to you? I sit there like a little baby and watch TV and you talk to me? Am I a f***ing baby, Paul?'" The next day there was a NYT report about Manafort's $12.7 million payday from a pro-Russian party in Ukraine.
Jared Kushner is the one who got rid of Manafort and Christie, per the book. When Manafort initially refused to resign, Kushner said they'd be putting out a press release in 30 seconds saying Manafort had resigned to force his hand.
Jeff Sessions, who would become Trump's Attorney General, reportedly told Bannon during the campaign if he endorsed Trump and Trump didn't win, it would be "the end of my career in the Republican Party," but Bannon convinced him to go through with it.
But I’m still not giving up my recently acquired Mosin Nagant
Far more interesting is the fact that drunken Hillary didn't have a concession speech ready that night and had to sober up the next morning to give one.
I’d rather not have a speech ready and win than have one ready and lose.
Unless Trump says it, it’s a lie.
Sedated? Hitlery was a raging drunk, throwing objects at anybody and everybody.
I wish someone had a camcorder and shared the images with the world!
and he prob’ly had chocolate cake with two scoops of ice cream...
Too many pronouns to follow who said what.
Well crap.
I ain’t either.
Can’t believe that thing is as accurate as it is...
Shot mine the first time just this evening.

Accuracy surprised me too. Not to mention what it did going through a 10 inch elm log and the destruction it caused behind it.
Did Hillary have a victory speech prepared?
I am guessing that some where there is a telephone recording of Hillary having her melt down... we wont see it till Hillary is declawed because you know that person would have a short life span if he or she ever released it.
sounds liwe a 12 year old wrote this....this is non sense
What election speech would he have needed to prepare? At that point, after a year of campaign stops, the lines just roll off your lips.
He just finished a campaign. It is not like he had never heard the pitch before.
LOL! Gotta wait a looooong time between fictional events and claims of them so it’s harder to debunk them - at least until the book sells its first 37 copies....
“Complicated business !”
And. . . .
The Witch didn’t have a concession speech ready either. LOL.
FAKE book.
Do people write books to “inform” the public or do they write books to “make money”?
Nuff said.
