Trump went off on Secret Service over locks, bedsheets

Things are getting ugly at the White House, according to Donald Trump biographer Michael Wolff, and it’s all due to door locks and bedroom sheets, Knewz.com can reveal. Wolff, who wrote the 2018 book Fire and Fury: Inside the White House, claimed the president went off on his security detail and his domestic staff over his frustrations.

On an episode of the Inside Trump’s Head podcast, Wolff claimed Trump installed a lock on his bedroom door in the White House, despite the Secret Service not giving him the green light. The disagreement led to a “confrontation,” according to the author, who claimed the Secret Service “actually took [the lock] off, demanded that it be taken off.” Wolff also said Trump went crazy after the White House’s domestic staff changed his bedsheets. “[He] had a fit. What that’s about, I have no idea,” Wolff said.

That’s just part of it, as the businessman and former reality star is said to treat the Oval Office unlike any other administration has done. “It’s like a bus station. It’s just filled with people — 20 people, 30 people, more,” Wolff claimed of the current state of Trump’s White House office. “They bring in chairs. Almost anyone can come in and sit down, and Trump is behind the desk talking,” he said, adding that it’s like Trump is performing “a monologue.” Explained Wolff, “Sometimes it’s kind of funny. He’s trying to make jokes. … Everybody is sitting there pretending to listen. … One of the things [is] that when [Trump] speaks, what is inside the head comes out of the mouth. So whatever confusion, chaos, churning, past grievances comes out, and it doesn’t stop.” Wolff added that people will sit with the president “for hours” and “will never, ever, ever have a moment to say anything.”

Asked to comment, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung had the same response he always has regarding Wolff: Cheung called the author a “lying sack of s***” who “has been proven to be a fraud.” Cheung said Wolff “routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.” In response to Cheung’s comments, Wolff told RadarOnline.com, “None of this is new information. It was in my book Fire and Fury … and not disputed. Steven Cheung merely issues the same cut-and-paste denial and slur whenever my name comes up, no matter what I’ve said.”

This is not the first time Wolff has made wild claims about Trump. He recently alleged the president may have “snitched” on predator Jeffrey Epstein before the late financier’s 2006 arrest in Florida, which ended with Epstein getting a slap on the wrist. “Trump was aware of what was going on in Epstein’s house for a very long time. … He then used that against Epstein,” Wolff claimed. The two notorious figures were once close. According to Wolff, they fell out over what Epstein alleged was a money laundering scheme involving a Florida property, Trump and a Russian oligarch. “And at that point,” Wolff explained, “the investigation of Epstein began, and Epstein … believed that it began because Trump notified the police about what was going on at Epstein’s house, which Trump was fully aware of, because he was a frequent visitor to the house.” Epstein was arrested and jailed again in 2019, this time in New York on trafficking charges, while Trump was in the White House. He died in his cell before he went to trial.
