Trump Claims To Know Name Of “Anonymous” Author

Fox News reports:

President Trump on Tuesday claimed he knows the identity of the anonymous administration official who penned a scathing tell-all about his White House but said he won’t reveal the name publicly. “I know who it is,” Trump told reporters gathered at Andrews Air Force Base before departing on a trip to California.

Trump added that he can’t tell who it is, but he “knows who it is.” “People know it’s a fraud,” he said. “I know about anonymous and I know about the leakers too.”

The anonymous author, who also penned a now-infamous op-ed in the New York Times in 2018 claiming that he or she was “part of the resistance” to undermine Trump, published a book entitled “A Warning” last November that was highly critical of the president. It slammed him for mocking immigrants and challenging major public policy decisions.
