“I don’t think it was just him appearing at a rally on Jan. 6,” Boehner told USA Today. “He would be robbed of the comments that were made throughout the summer about the election, all the follow-up noise that came after the election: I kept looking for the facts.”

“What caught my attention, especially after the election, was, here are all these people loyal to Donald Trump and he mistreated them,” Boehner added. “She intensified her loyalty to him by continuing to say things that were simply not true.”

Days after the uprising, Boehner tweeted about the condemnation of the attack and denounced the Republican party, and sent an exciting email to an informal group of friends, allies and former aides whom he refers to as ” Boehnerland “.

Dozens of courts have also conducted lawsuits alleging that the election was not legitimate.

In his book, Boehner also recalled the first time he met Trump: during a golf game during a fundraising tour with two insurance executives at the Trump National Golf Club in Westchester, New York, USA.

Boehner, who at the time was the leader of the House minority, said he was told “out of nowhere” that Trump would be the fourth group.

“He was very kind, but in a similar way, to the way they talk in New York, to which he wasn’t at all accustomed,” Boehner recalled, according to USA Today.

“Direct, strong, intense,” he added.

He wrote that a young Boehner aide embarrassed Trump by giving the wrong name to one of the insurance executives, prompting Trump to dress him in a splendid run that Boehner called “dark.”

Boehner recalled that Trump called the assistant a “fool.”

“That was so much more than a New York retreat,” Boehner wrote, according to USA Today. “That meant real anger, for something very, very small. At the time we had no idea what that anger would do in our country.”

Boehner also wrote about calls Trump made at the beginning of his presidency to the former Speaker of the House for advice. Among other things, as reported by USA Today, Boehner advised Trump to stop tweeting.

When asked how history would judge the 45th president, Boehner wrote, “Well, I don’t think very well.”

Boehner’s comments come days before the release of his memoirs, in which the former Speaker of the House offered his comment on various actors in Washington’s power.
