Trump Jr dirt on Democratic presidenti­al candidate Hillary Clinton and a meeting on this was held in Trump Tower. On this, Steve Bannon said: “Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, you should have called the FBI” Trump didn’t think he would be president "Shortly after 8pm on Election Night, when the unexpected trend – Trump might actually win – seemed confirmed, Don Jr told a friend that his father, or DJT, as he calls him, looked as if he had seen a ghost. Melania was in tears” Trump was 'angry' at his inaugurati­on “Trump did not enjoy his own inaugurati­on. He was angry that A-level stars had snubbed the event, disgruntle­d with the accommodat­ions at Blair House, and visibly fighting with his wife, who seemed on the verge of tears. Throughout the day, he wore what some around him had taken to calling his golf face: angry and pissed off, shoulders hunched, arms swinging.” Ivanka Trump struck a deal to run for president Trump's daughter Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner have struck a deal for her to run for president in future, Wolff says in the book Ivanka made fun of Trump’s hair-do She also made fun of her father's alleged "scalp-reduction surgery" and “comb-over” and treated him with “a degree of detachment, even irony” Trump found the White House 'scary' Wolff writes that Trump found the White House to be “vexing and even a little scary” and retreated to a separate bedroom. “In the first days, he ordered two television screens in addition to the one already there, and a lock on the door, precipitat­ing a brief standoff with the Secret Service, who insisted they have access to the room.”
