It doesn’t sound like Donald Trump liked some of the comments about him in Jonathan Karl’s new book, Tired of Winning: Donald Trump and the End of the Grand Old Party. There’s a particular section where the former president’s conversations with Kim Kardashian revealed just how complicated it was to ask him for a favor.
The reality star was seeking one last bid for sentence commutations before his administration ended in 2020. Donald Trump wanted something in return by asking Kim to “leverage her celebrity connections to get football stars who were friends of hers to come visit him at the White House,” according to an excerpt published by Axios. The SKIMS founder was fine complying with his request, but the athletes wouldn’t get near the White House since Donald Trump was considered “too toxic” by then. The former president also wasn’t thrilled with Kim when she posted her excitement about Joe Biden and Kamala Harris winning the 2020 election — their BFF relationship was over.
Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Wednesday to share his displeasure about Karl’s book and the Kim stories he shared in it. “In the ‘book’ he has the World’s most overrated celebrity, Kim Kardashian, supposedly telling me that she ‘would leverage her celebrity to get football stars to come to the White House,’ if I would commute the sentences of various prisoners. This story is Fake News in that she would be the last person I asked to get football players,” he wrote on the social media platform.
That’s when Donald Trump took one final stab at his Kim friendship and made claims about why he had her to the White House in the first place. “I did help with prisoner commutation, but only if deserving, and much more so for Kanye West than for Kim, who probably voted for Crooked Joe Biden, and look at the mess our Country is in now,” the former president ranted and raved. “Many other false stories in Karl’s very boring book, but nothing worth mentioning!”
It looks like Kim won’t be getting a Christmas card from Donald Trump, but it sounds like Kanye is still on his friend list.
