Maggie Haberman: Just another person 'willing to let democracy die on the altar of a book deal'
New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman is again facing criticism for holding vital information related to national security until her next book comes out. This time, it was the knowledge that former President Donald Trump—more than once—told aides after losing the 2020 election that he would not leave the White House, CNN reported on Monday in an exclusive.
“I’m just not going to leave,” Trump is accused of saying in Haberman’s account.
“We’re never leaving,” he reportedly told another aide. “How can you leave when you won an election?”
