President Donald Trump's biographer has claimed that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro's arrest may have been prompted by the latter mocking Trump's dance moves. Michael Wolff stated on his Inside Trump's Head podcast that Trump became upset when he saw Maduro imitating his signature dance moves in what appeared to be a mocking fashion.

The claims come weeks after Trump had Maduro and his wife arrested following multiple attempts to negotiate with the Venezuelan leader. However, the White House has dismissed Wolff's credibility, with Communications Director Steven Cheung accusing the author of fabricating stories about the president.
