When pressed on some of these during media appearances, he delivered this line in one MSNBC interview: “If it makes sense to you, if it strikes a chord, if it rings true, it is true.” But at what cost? Because it became clear fairly quickly that there were serious factual problems with the book. So it’s no surprise he would continue churning out juicy, Trump-related books. Wolff’s book in 2018 sold millions of copies, netting the writer, according to estimates, tens of millions of dollars. “I’m not getting anything.” And then he walked off the live interview.ĭid his earpiece really stop working? Or did he just not want to answer the pointed question about a gossip claim he had raised surrounding his dishy Trump White House book? Was this just another of Wolff’s claims that bordered on a falsehood? “I can’t hear you,” he said, after having an entire interview with no audio issues. Just at that moment, Wolff claimed his earpiece stopped working. “Do you owe the president and the first lady an apology?” asked the host. During an interview on Australia’s “Today” show, he was pressed toward the end on a claim he made that he was “absolutely sure” President Donald Trump was having an extramarital affair. And “world” is accurate: Wolff became an international sensation. As author Michael Wolff makes the rounds this month, it’s worth looking back to February 2018, when Wolff’s first gigantic hit book, “Fire and Fury,” was the talk of the media world.
