There are explicit links between the two; firstly the core authors are former Trump staffers, secondly after the publication several have been invited to work in the second administration. These are links.
> despite his explicit denials.
Trump has history, both before and during his political career, of lying; promises he never carried through on, denials of things later shown to be true. From his apprenticeship with his slumlord father through until the present he has been a consumment grifter. All politicians lie, true, few have lied as much as Trump.
In short, the link exists and his denial carries no weight.
