Yesterday the Trump world was ready to put Jake Tapper on the trash heap of history over his interview with Stephen Miller that… didn’t go too well, let’s say.
But that reaction may have been too hasty. Because while Tapper and Miller may have sparred over who gave who how many minutes to talk uninterrupted, Tapper was baking another cake that came out of the over today. And man is it sweet.
Now, sure, he takes the standard MSM shots at President Trump and, to be fair, the shots are 100% accurate about Trump, but he also exposes in less than 4 minutes the utter unreliability and ridiculousness of author Michael Wolff and his book.
Let’s watch. (It really gets going around 2:20)
“The book is riddled with errors and rumors and in his marketing of the book Wolff made the unbelievable assertion that 100 percent of the President’s family members and top advisers have concerns about his mental fitness for the job. One hundred percent, that’s simply not true.”
He lists errors, cites Gorka’s column (here), and shows a few clips where Wolff looks like a total idiot who has no idea what he’s talking about.
Obviously this is presented as a “they’re both unreliable” but, and you have to understand this, being reliable is the only thing the book has going for it. It’s the only thing the author has.
Had.
With no credibility, with obvious lies, the book isn’t what it hopes to be, what every left hopes it to be. It’s not an expose. It’s a collection of rumors and things that are already exposed as false even in the MSM. In other words, it’s totally useless.
In fact, as a document you can trust for the truth, it’s about as credible as the Steele Dossier.
