How Trump Just Proved He's an Idiot: Wolff

Donald Trump’s biographer says the president’s wild autism claims prove something even one of his oldest political aides once admitted: the president is an “idiot.”

Trump boldly asserted a link between pregnant women’s Tylenol use and autism in newborn babies on Monday, an unproven theory swiftly dismissed by major health organizations and national governments.

Author Michael Wolff told the Inside Trump’s Head podcast that the bonkers announcement triggered a flashback to a revealing conversation he had with one of Trump’s earliest political advisers, Sam Nunberg, while working on his 2018 tell-all book, Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House.

At the time, Wolff said, he thought that Trump could be an “interesting president” who might do “the unexpected in a good way.”

But when Wolff floated the idea to “Trump whisperer” Sam Nunberg—who advised Trump in his early political forays before being forced out of the 2016 campaign when his racist Facebook comments resurfaced—he got a frank reply.

“He said, ‘You don’t get it, do you?’” Wolff recounted. “He said, ‘He’s an idiot!’ And at that moment, it all came clear to me because Trump is, in very classic terms, an idiot.”
