The extensive discussion was as fascinating as it was entertaining. Its for you to decide for yourself what his credibility level is. After all he's just a guy who is only special because he had temporary intimate access to Trump at a pivotal time, including Jan 6th. I have not seen the documentary.
Here are a few selected questions and answers that were particularly useful to me, most being questions I have always wanted to ask someone:
For anyone interested, here's the link to the AMA where you can dive deeper: https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comme ... cumentary/
Q: How much did you get the sense that controlled chaos was a well crafted strategy, or was it truly a shit show with every day a new, unplanned catastrophe?
A: total shit show
Q: More specifically though, do you think the chaos was crafted strategy?
A: not crafted. total shit show.
Q: Based on your time with Trump, what do you believe his plans for the classified documents were? Selling them to the highest bidder? Organizing a coup? Something that is somehow more sinister or did he just do it for the lulz?
A: I think he just wanted them because he thinks they belong to him!
Q: If I may ask a follow-up to this, going off what he truly thinks; Do you think that he wholeheartedly believes the rhetoric he’s spitting out (anything from “Stop The Steal” to building the wall) or is he just saying whatever he can to get people riled up at the polls? Also, if the former rings true, do you feel there was ever a time where it was all an act?
A: there was a time when it was an act - but I think he has come to believe it. Which is terrifying.
Q: What was the vibe like for everyone in the WH leading up to Jan 6th? And after?
A: There was an uncomfortable atmosphere in the White House. President Trump’s staff came across as being very intimidated by him. They seemed scared.
Q: Are you under any NDAs that prevent answering certain questions about the former President?
A: No NDA's
Q: Do you think Trump is "all there" mentally?
A: I'm not a doctor but he is certainly a very unusual person.
Q: Does his energy come from pills? What was he like in the morning and how long did it take him to get that Revlon look?
A: So, he does his own makeup and I was told it took a couple of hours each morning.
Q: Does he actually believe the things he says, or is he just a masterful liar?
A: He is incapable of believing anything other than him being a "winner". He cannot accept that he lost and convinces himself that he won. It's pretty extraordinary to witness up-close.
Q: How fucked are we?
A: pretty fucked mate...but if there is one place that can always un-fuck themselves it's the USA. So, I'm hanging on to that.
