1 big thing: Trump may sue Michael Wolff
Source: Axios
Axios has learned that, at Trump's direction, his lawyers may go after Wolff as soon as today.
Bannon wouldn't comment on the record, but "a source with knowledge of this matter" texted me that "more than a dozen wh staffers or colleagues of potus talked with [wolff] ... because the wh was cooperating with the book."
Reached for comment about the lawyer's letter to Bannon, Wolff told me: "I rest my case."

(13,340 posts)No he won't. Trump threatens to sue people all the time. But if he sues Wolff, Trump will have to be deposed. Under oath. No way he does that.

(23,155 posts)drumpf doesn't want to get deposed in front of unfriendly attorneys, his attorneys wouldn't let that bloodbath happen. He's always full of bluster, but there is no go in the current show, just totally empty threats. I hope he does sue, that he's really that demented. He will lose and could lose really big if the actual truth comes out. Hope Wolff and publisher hang tough and go ahead with publication and drumpf will be shown to be an ignorant clown or the same is shown in deposition that gets leaked to news and judge rules in favor of defendants and book comes out anyway. Only now there will be a lot more behind this and the total realization that drumpf can't be president, is mentally unfit.
