About this ebook

#1 New York Times Bestseller

With extraordinary access to the West Wing, Michael Wolff reveals what happened behind-the-scenes in the first nine months of the most controversial presidency of our time in Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House.

Since Donald Trump was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States, the country—and the world—has witnessed a stormy, outrageous, and absolutely mesmerizing presidential term that reflects the volatility and fierceness of the man elected Commander-in-Chief.

This riveting and explosive account of Trump’s administration provides a wealth of new details about the chaos in the Oval Office, including:
-- What President Trump’s staff really thinks of him
-- What inspired Trump to claim he was wire-tapped by President Obama
-- Why FBI director James Comey was really fired
-- Why chief strategist Steve Bannon and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner couldn’t be in the same room
-- Who is really directing the Trump administration’s strategy in the wake of Bannon’s firing
-- What the secret to communicating with Trump is
-- What the Trump administration has in common with the movie The Producers

Never before in history has a presidency so divided the American people. Brilliantly reported and astoundingly fresh, Fire and Fury shows us how and why Donald Trump has become the king of discord and disunion.

“Essential reading.”—Michael D’Antonio, author of Never Enough: Donald Trump and the Pursuit of Success, CNN.com

“Not since Harry Potter has a new book caught fire in this way...[Fire and Fury] is indeed a significant achievement, which deserves much of the attention it has received.”—The Economist

Ratings and reviews

Trump Cultists are do predictably stupid. 1. They leave 1 star ratings with 1, or NO words. Because they have NO words, or thoughts to call their own. 2. They immediately use "FAKE NEWS" (their latest rationalization for being irrational), never taking a single moment to ever consider trying to verify or discredit facts on their own, because... See #1 above. 3. They confuse love of country with love of President. They have ZERO concept of what patriotism actually is. They are the literal traitors they pretend to abhor. In every movie that references the American Revolution, they are the Red Coat English nationalists, sitting at home, cheering for the other side, clueless to their true loyalties. 4. They shout about "Freedom" while crying and moaning about people exercising theirs, and not falling in line, bowing before anyone "projecting" authority. 5. Mindless, sad, pathetic, drones. The Walking Intellectually Dead... Easy herded and redirected with loud noises and red meat. #SAD

A compelling read. Even if most of it isn't new information. I understand the negative reviews, even from people who haven't actually read the book. **Spoilers** This is not a flattering portrayal of the President or any of the people that surround him and provides some opinion from the Author on the motives of this President. But, I believe it is accurate and there is no reason to think otherwise. Not until the Russia investigations are completed and I have actual 'facts' to correct any discrepancies. The contents of this book ring true with all of the news that has been reported in the last year. Even the news the biased Right Wing media reports. Everyone needs to read this book. It clearly captures the tone of the tone of the Administration and how things came to be. I suspect this book will become required reading in college.

Praise Michael Wolff for giving it to the little man with the little hands. For those of you hating this book, you're just jealous you didn't think of it first. But it's not too late to borrow a page in Mr Wolff brilliance. Making money off of Trump's name. We should all be writing bull, slapping Trump's name all over it, with a price next to it. It's just pure genious. I say this is one way Trump will make Americana great again. By plagiarize in his name and we the people profiting from it. As for the book, I liked it, that's why I paid for it. Michael puts a lot of his opinion in mixed in with the truth about Donald T. I can say the events really took place, how they actually occured is entirely Michael Wolff take on it. Brovo good sir, I tip my hat to you Michael.
