About this ebook

For the first time, the full, explosive record of the unthinkable: how a US president compromised American foreign policy in exchange for the promise of future business and covert election assistance.

Looking back at this moment in history, historians will ask if Americans knew they were living through the first case of criminal conspiracy between an American presidential candidate turned commander in chief and a geopolitical enemy. The answer might be: it was hard to see the whole picture. The stories coming in from around the globe have often seemed fantastical: clandestine meetings in foreign capitals, secret recordings in a Moscow hotel, Kremlin agents infiltrating the Trump inner circle...

Seth Abramson has tracked every one of these far-flung reports and now in, Proof of Collusion, he finally gives us a record of the unthinkable—a president compromising American foreign policy in exchange for the promise of future business and covert election assistance. The attorney, professor, and former criminal investigator has used his exacting legal mind and forensic acumen to compile, organize, and analyze every piece of the Trump-Russia story. His conclusion is clear: the case for collusion is staring us in the face. Drawing from American and European news outlets, he takes readers through the Trump-Russia scandal chronologically, putting the developments in context and showing how they connect. His extraordinary march through all the public evidence includes:

—How Trump worked for thirty years to expand his real estate empire into Russia even as he was rescued from bankruptcy by Putin’s oligarchs and Kremlin agents.

—How Russian intelligence gathered compromising material on him over multiple trips.

—How Trump recruited Russian allies and business partners while running for president.

—How he surrounded himself with advisers who engaged in clandestine negotiations with Russia.

—How Trump aides and family members held secret meetings with foreign agents and lied about them.

By pulling every last thread of this complicated story together, Abramson argues that—even in the absence of a Congressional investigation or a report from Special Counsel Mueller—the public record already indicates a quid pro quo between Trump and the Kremlin. The most extraordinary part of the case for collusion is that so much of it unfolded in plain sight.

Ratings and reviews

One year later. So has anyone demanded a refund for this book? All I've seen in the review section is how every American needs to read this. Upon doing so I saw that this book proved nothing other than that the people who claim Trump is a Nazi, fell for the oldest propaganda tactic that was ironically created by Nazis. If you tell a lie over and over again, people will believe it. There was no collusion. It was a political tactic crafted in order to obstruct the President. Every five star review was used by those who dreamed up this bad Ian Flemming rip off of a conspiracy theory. You're no better than the ignorant morons who supported the invasion of Iraq.

Every American needs to read this this book! Alternative-facts are not actual-facts. Seth Abramson has been giving us actual-facts and showing us where to find them for ourselves for years! I follow @SethAbramson on Twitter so I already know most of this. I bought the e-book to show him support, and thank him for his incredible work! To Seth(jic): Spending Mueller-Day with you (and most of the night before) on Twitter was amazing, thank you for everything you do! YOU'RE A ROCK STAR ! P.S. I will be pre-ordering Proof of Conspiracy too ;)

I DON'T SEE ANYTHING THAT THE CLINTONS CANT KILL. AND YOU FORGOT TO MENTION THE ZIONIST JEWS RUNNING AMERICA. THEY DO COME FROM RUSSIA. BUT THE ZIONISTS RUN THIS COUNTRY NOT RUSSIA.
