The #TrumpRussia collusion has always struck me as a bad conspiracy theory conjured up by those who couldn’t see him winning, as a mechanism to cope with the new reality of President Trump.

However, yesterday, when Michael Wolff published this story as a prelude of his new book “Fire And Fury, Inside the Trump White House”, things took a strange turn.

“Donald Trump Didn’t Want to Be President” By MICHAEL WOLFF

The book is portrayed as an accurate account of what was going on inside the Trump campaign during the last days of the election, the transition and the first months of the Trump White House, be that as it may, there are many problems with that assumption.

Let’s examine some:

“In the end, the best Trump would do is to loan the campaign $10 million, provided he got it back as soon as they could raise other money. Steve Mnuchin, the campaign’s finance chairman, came to collect the loan with the wire instructions ready to go so Trump couldn’t conveniently forget to send the money.”

In reality Trump donated $66M to the campaign: 660% more than what’s reported in the book.

Shortly after 8 p.m. on Election Night, when the unexpected trend — Trump might actually win — seemed confirmed, Don Jr. told a friend that his father, or DJT, as he calls him, looked as if he had seen a ghost. Melania was in tears — and not of joy.

How does the writer know what kind of tears Melania was producing is beyond anybody’s guess and no evidence for the claim is ever provided in the rest of the article. What’s true, whether they expected to win or not, is that having your husband become the president of the United States, against all the odds, must have been an incredible emotional ride. Especially for a family that was not one of a political pedigree. The writer is literally engaging in tears-reading to concoct his theory.

Trump said: “These guys (Silicon Valley) really need my help. Obama was not very favorable to them, too much regulation. This is really an opportunity for me to help them.” “Donald,” said Murdoch, “for eight years these guys had Obama in their pocket. They practically ran the administration. They don’t need your help.” “Take this H-1B visa issue. They really need these H-1B visas.” Murdoch suggested that taking a liberal approach to H-1B visas, which open America’s doors to select immigrants, might be hard to square with his promises to build a wall and close the borders. But Trump seemed unconcerned, assuring Murdoch, “We’ll figure it out.”

Although we cannot know for sure what was said between Trump and Murdoch in that meeting what we do know is that Candidate Trump promised to restrict H-1B visa and in less than 2 months after inauguration day President Trump directed Department of Homeland to enforce higher scrutiny on H-1B visa.

The article goes on and on with more assumptions and more speculations but what the writer really wants us to believe is, as the title suggests:

“Donald Trump Didn’t Want to Be President”

Many questions spring to mind but these 2 will be the funniest to watch Trump critics answer:

How did Hillary Clinton (the most qualified person ever to run for President) lose the election to somebody that didn’t even want to win?

But more importantly:

If Trump never wanted to become President, why did he collude with Russia? To lose the election?
