The author of an anonymous column in the New York Times in 2018, who was identified as a senior Trump administration official acting as part of the “resistance” inside the government, has written a tell-all book to be published next month. Trump lashed out at the anonymous author after the column’s publication. He also demanded on Twitter that the Times turn over “the GUTLESS anonymous person” to the government “at once.” The Times did not. Many senior government officials, including some who served in the Trump administration, have written books under their own names. “The author could have received a seven-figure advance for writing this book,” Latimer said.
