US President Donald Tramp's lawyer today announced that he would seek to prevent the publication of a new book on the US president in which he was portrayed as an ignorant about which his closest associates do not have a good opinion, the Washington Post reported.
Due to a book by journalist Michael Wolff "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House", to be released next week, Tramp has already angrily criticized his former chief guard, Steve Benon, who was also hacked citations in the book.
Lawyer Charles Harder sent a letter to Wolf and publisher Henri Holt and Co., which states that charges are being considered for defamation and a request to "stop immediately and stop publishing, publishing or distributing the book", its extracts or parts.
Parts of the book have already been published. The Tramp was presented in them as a boasting billionaire who did not even want to be a president, but with the presidential campaign to strengthen his brand.
The US president says he does not know much, he can not even comprehend complex problems, while quoting media mogul Rupert Murdoch who said that Tramp was "an idiot."
Benon harshly criticized Tramp's children in the book. For a meeting with Russian citizens during the campaign, on which Tramp's son was, Benon said he was "treacherous" and "non-patriotic".
Lawyers have already accused Benon of violating a confidentiality agreement, while Tramp told him that he had "lost his mind."
"Steve Benon has nothing to do with me or my presidency." When he was dismissed, he not only lost his job, he lost his mind, "Tramp said in a statement yesterday to his former associate who, as stated at that time, resigned , after which he returned to the right-wing Brybart News (Breitbart News).
The White House's response is a significant breakthrough since October when Tramp told Benon that he was his friend and understood his attitudes.
The Tramp was annoyed by the book for much of the day, officials and advisers said, while a White House spokeswoman said the president was "angry", the Washington Post said.
The US president shouted at the staff at the White House because they talked with Wolf, who during the first months of his mandate spent time in an unmarked White House work.
Wolf said that Tramp was familiar with his work and that he allowed others to talk to him. In an article published by the New York magazine, it is said that the author made more than 200 interviews "over a period of 18 months with the president" and members of his team.
