The ghost writer who penned Donald Trump ’s 1987 memoir “The Art of the Deal” thinks the US president will throw in the towel before the end of his term .
Writer Tony Schwartz tweeted that “Trump is going to resign ” before investigators probing alleged ties between the Republican ’s campaign team and Russia “ leave him no choice . ”
“The circle is closing at blinding speed,” the author tweeted. “Trump is going to resign and declare victory before Mueller and Congress leave him no choice . ”
“Trump ’s presidency is effectively over , ” he said in a follow- up tweet . “Would be amazed if he survives till end of the year . More likely resigns by fall , if not sooner. ”
While writing Trump ’ s best - selling breakthrough memoir Schwartz spent 18 months with the billionaire tycoon .
He spoke out last year against the real estate mogul during the presidential campaign , telling The New Yorker magazine that he put “lipstick on a pig . ”
“I feel a deep sense of remorse that I contributed to presenting Trump in a way that brought him wider attention and made him more appealing than he is . ”
