Donald Trump reportedly had doubts about ‘First Buddy’ Elon Musk during his presidential campaign that led to outbursts from the president, according to a new book.

Michael Wolff, a longtime author best known for Fire and Fury – his tell-all about the Trump administration, has written a new book chronicling the 2024 Trump campaign.

All or Nothing: How Trump Recaptured America recounts how Trump had doubts about Musk after the Tesla CEO jumped wildly with his fists in air as he joined the president at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

The endorsement from Musk was meant to be a confirmation that he was here to stay on the campaign but after he bounced around on the stage, Trump could only allegedly ask one question.

‘What the f*** is wrong with this guy? And why doesn’t his shirt fit?’ 

For his part, Musk was reportedly unimpressed after someone volunteered to introduce him to JD Vance at that same rally.

‘I’ve really no interest in speaking to a vice president,’ Wolff claims Musk said, with Wolff also alleging Trump staffers have said that the two titans will ‘invariably’ fall out at some point. 

Elsewhere, Wolff claims Trump repeated conspiracy theories regarding Michelle Obama’s true gender after it was rumored she would replace Joe Biden after he dropped out.

‘People call her ‘Mike’ you know. You know that don’t you?’ Wolff claims Trump said. 

‘They think she looks pretty manly. Those very big shoulders. What’s that about? That’s what people will call her if she runs, ‘Mike.’ That’s the name she’ll have: ‘Mike.’

Wolff also claims that while he was consistently bemoaning his ‘s****y lawyers,’ he admired OJ Simpson’s infamous ‘Dream Team.’ 

He was reportedly unsparing toward Todd Blanche, now Deputy Attorney General, after he was convicted in his hush money trial in New York. 

‘I don’t even know what you’re doing here? I told you to stop this…I paid you to handle this. But you’re blowing it…Why are you so weak? I don’t know why I’m paying you.’

He also referred to some of his other lawyers, including now acting U.S. deputy attorney general Emil Bove, asking: ‘How could you lose that? You were terrible. Now I get stuck with you.’

‘Michael Wolff is a lying sack of s**** and has been proven to be a fraud,’ White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told The Daily Beast in a statement. 

‘He 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.’

During the weeks leading up to the election, Wolff wrote for DailyMail.com that some suspected Musk was plotting a coup against Trump from the inside and despite his apparent disinterest in meeting him, Vance was his desired usurper.

‘Curiously, there is a belief that it is not so much Trump who the tech bros are supporting but his Vice President JD Vance, whose career has been nurtured by tech money.

Musk is said to have made his support for Trump contingent on Trump picking Vance, who is only 40-years-old, as his running mate.’

Wolff’s 2018 Trump biography, ‘Fire and Fury’ was among the first books to extensively document the ongoing conflicts in the Trump White House.

It portrayed a chaotic White House in Trump’s first year as president, based on extensive interviews with Trump’s former chief strategist Steve Bannon and others.

His first Trump book included a prologue that stated: ‘Many of the accounts of what has happened in the Trump White House are in conflict with one another; many, in Trumpian fashion, are baldly untrue. These conflicts, and that looseness with the truth, if not with reality itself, are an elemental thread of the book.’

‘Fire and Fury’ included lengthy quotations from private conversations, reported in a way that left readers wondering how Wolff obtained them. He also freely described the thoughts and feelings of people he wrote about. 

Trump claimed Wolff had ‘zero access’ to him or the White House and tweeted angrily about it – and even threatened to sue, which only increased interest in the book.

Wolff himself called his book an ‘international political event’ in an interview with The Guardian shortly after its publication.

‘I got to a truth that no one else had gotten to. Everyone around Trump thinks he’s a charlatan, a fool, an idiot and someone ultimately not capable of functioning in this job,’ he said.

He also said the president is ‘deeply unpredictable, irrational, at times bordering on incoherent, [and] self-obsessed in a disconcerting way.’

Bloomberg estimated that Wolff was likely to earn $7.4 million from Fire and Fury, a figure which his publisher never confirmed or denied.

He is the author of two other books chronicling Trump’s time in office – ‘Siege: Trump under Fire‘ (2019) and ‘Landslide: The Final Days of the Trump Presidency’ (2021).
