In "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House," Michael Wolff uncovers the chaotic environment within the Trump administration, highlighting how internal dissension often led to leaks of sensitive information. The most significant revelations, according to Wolff, originated from senior officials and even from the president himself, illustrating a lack of control over the narrative within the White House.

The book emphasizes that the president's compulsive sharing of information contributed to the erosion of trust and stability in his administration. This constant stream of communication, particularly from those at the highest levels of leadership, served to fuel speculation and controversy, painting a picture of a tumultuous and unpredictable administration grappling with its own internal conflicts.
