The author of a bombshell book about the Trump administration says Trump’s attempt to stop his book's publication is “proving the point of the book.”

Michael Wolff, the author of “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House,” said on the “Today Show” Friday that Trump’s attempt to block the book was “extraordinary.”

“Not only is he helping me sell books, he is helping me to prove the point of the book,” Wolff said. “This is extraordinary, that the president of the United States would try to stop the publication of a book.”

He said such a move “has not happened from other presidents, would not even happen from a CEO of a mid-sized company.”

"Where do I send the box of chocolates?” Wolff added.

Trump’s lawyers reportedly sent a cease-and-desist letter to Wolff’s publisher, Henry Holt & Company, to try and block the book’s publication.

The publisher then moved the book’s publication date up by four days due to high demand.

The White House has publicly attacked the book as “sad” and “pathetic.”

Trump also slammed the book in a tweet Thursday night.
