New York Times Bestseller
“Authoritative... A smart recap of the past four years,
punctuated by insider details about the investigations and Toobin’s
judgments on the lawyering skills and ethics of various players.
The author has no patience for James Comey’s sanctimony and “faux
humility.” ...Rosenstein is “disoriented and out of his depth,”
committing legal and political “malpractice” by letting Trump use
him to justify Comey’s firing. And Barr is “sycophantic,” a “toady”
who evolved from “principled conservative to Trump apologist.”
-Washington Post
"At some point in the future, it is entirely possible that the full
details of Donald Trump's business affairs, personal imbroglios and
political maneuverings will be laid bare to the public. Should that
happen, it is easy to imagine much of the world wondering how the
man got away with so much for so long. In that hour, readers may
well turn to True Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Investigation
of Donald Trump....This work is more than a journalist emptying his
notebook of all his interviews and insights. It is more than a
legal expert analyzing how the best work of talented and committed
lawyers could be frustrated by governmental rules and rivalries
within the executive and legislative powers in our federal system.
Perhaps its highest function is as a condensation of the best
evidence against the presidency and character of Donald Trump, a
summation offered up much as a prosecutor would do in seeking to
sway a jury."
