Navarro has now admitted inventing Ron Vara, and – in true Trumpian fashion – says he’s glad people discovered it because it was a hilarious inside joke all along.
His co-writers have said they were not in on this “joke” and that Mr. Ron Vara’s quotes were provided to them as if he was a real person.
His publisher is not particularly amused by his hilarious joke and say they will be adding a disclaimer to all of his books, alerting readers that Ron Vara is fake.
