Montel Williams Admits Lying About Donald Trump

I’ve made my disdain for Montel Williams well known over my career. A friend of mine growing up lived in Montel’s neighborhood. Everyone hated him.

I’ve also, rightly, chastised many of you for praising him when he has momentary publicity seeking bouts of patriotism. Oh how quickly you all forget how he harassed and ambushed military families to oppose the Iraq War. But I digress …

Montel Williams is also a race-hustler, and a perpetual proven liar. His latest lie occurred when he appeared on (SURPRISE!) ‘it’s not news, it’s’ CNN.

During Montel’s appearance on Brooke Baldwin‘s program to declare that he was voting for Hillary Clinton, he went on about how he helped push Trump’s The Art of the Deal to number 1 on the New York Times bestseller list by allowing Trump to appear on his show. Go figure. He said he allowed him on his program because it was good for ratings.

But here’s the hard part: Trump’s book was published in 1987. Montel’s daytime talk show began in 1991.

Like I said, he’s a liar.

Montel’s people admitted the mistake, and are spinning it that Montel confused “The Art of the Deal” with “The Art of the Comeback.” Montel also said Trump was horrible to be around, and no one else would have him on as a guest back then, yada, yada. All of which has never come out until now when Montel, conveniently, is gearing up to run for office. There’s also no proof Montel having Trump on catapulted Trump’s book on the bestseller list.
