Trump's book does not contain the specific warnings about bin Laden that he claims to have made in his interview.

Also, FactCheck reviewed Trump's book, and he didn't say any of this shit in it. This is the only mention he makes of bin Laden in the entire book. Quote, instead of one looming crisis hanging over us, we face a bewildering series of smaller crises, flashpoints, standoffs, and hotspots. We're not playing the chess game to end all chess games anymore. We're playing tournament chess, one master against many rivals. One day, we're all assuming that Iraq is under control. The UN inspectors have done their work. Everything's fine. Not to worry. The next day, the bombings begin. One day, we're told that a shadowy figure with no fixed address named Osama bin Laden is public enemy number one, and the U.S. jet fighters lay waste to his camp in Afghanistan. He escapes back under some rock, and a few news cycles later, it's on to a new enemy and a new crisis. That was his mention of something. But he's maybe lying about the context in this interview.
