Trump biographer: Trump didn’t write any of his books
A biographer of President Trump hit back at Trump’s tweet touting himself as the author of “many best selling books,” saying that ghostwriters had written all of the president’s books.
“President Trump didn’t write any of his books. Ghostwriters on all of them,” author Tim O’Brien tweeted Tuesday.
Another one of those tweets that sure seem staff-written.
Regardless: President Trump didn’t write any of his books. Ghostwriters on all of them. https://t.co/IuWekRDnJg

O’Brien wrote the Trump biography “Trump Nation” and often appears in the media to discuss Trump.

Trump is credited as the author of more than a dozen books. Almost all of them acknowledge the use of a ghostwriter or co-author.
The president defended himself over spelling errors in his tweets on Tuesday, saying that he has “written many best selling books” and “somewhat [prides] myself on my ability to write.”
After having written many best selling books, and somewhat priding myself on my ability to write, it should be noted that the Fake News constantly likes to pour over my tweets looking for a mistake. I capitalize certain words only for emphasis, not b/c they should be capitalized!
