Michael Wolff, the author of "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House," included a note at the start that casts significant doubt on the reliability of the specifics contained in the rest of its pages.
Several of his sources, he says, were definitely lying to him, while some offered accounts that flatly contradicted those of others.
But some were nonetheless included in the vivid account of the West Wing's workings, in a process Wolff describes as "allowing the reader to judge" whether the sources' claims are true.
The book itself, reviewed by Business Insider from a copy acquired prior to its Friday publication, is not always clear about what level of confidence the author has in any particular assertion.
Those certainly read like the tweets of a genius.
OTOH, his tweets are somehow still more coherent than most of sailor's posts.
Lord knows I hate to go down the rabbit hole of dissecting a Trump tweet, but this wasn't his first time running for president.
My new go-to phrase, whenever I need a chuckle, is "very stable genius".
