Anonymous Will Reveal Their Identity

November 26, 2019 · 9:06 pm ET · Leave a Comment

The anonymous White House official who has written a bombshell book about President Trump’s tenure says they will not remain anonymous forever, during a public interview on Reddit.

Said the person: “As far as anonymity is concerned, I will not keep my identity shrouded in secrecy forever. I am not afraid to use my own name to express concern about the current occupant of the Oval Office. Donald Trump has not heard the last of me. There is more to come.”

They added: “Other people who are currently serving, and who have left, are also considering adding their voices before votes are cast in 2020. We talk about this with some regularity.”
