Vigeland argues, however, that people should be questioning President Trump's fitness for office aside from the details disclosed in Wolff's tell-all.

Hart Island is a mile-long patch of land in the Long Island Sound off the coast of the Bronx, which normally slips under the radar for most New Yorkers.
