Starting in late 1985, Schwartz spent eighteen months with Trump—camping out in his office, joining him on his helicopter, tagging along at meetings, and spending weekends with him at his Manhattan apartment and his Florida estate.

If ghostwriters only worked for people of upstanding moral character, they wouldn't work much.

Okay so then we shouldn't really care what any ghostwriters say? We already knew trump lies as much as he breathes. WaPo had that database documenting his lies with tens of thousands of fact checked entries. Not normal, even for typical known liars.

Because they spend a lot of time being very close to their clients?

Your comment doesn't make sense to me.

Because they help shitty people come off as good and sometimes that allows said shitty people to the ability to do a lot of harm.. ?
