A review by alisarae
Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House by Michael Wolff

Basically just confirmation of what we've known all along: the White House is in complete chaos, with inexperienced power-hungry factions grabbing as much as they can before they are pushed out or (hopefully) imprisoned. Don't come to this book looking for analysis or new info; this is a chronological order of events with brief backgrounds on the main players. For an essential read-along with deeper analysis and criticism, see Seth Abramson's thread: https://twitter.com/SethAbramson/status/949330818056454145

The best thing this book did for me was crystalize the term "neoliberal" that I see thrown around so much (no discussion of this in the book btw; I was just thinking about it). Ivanka and Jared are the personification of this: progressive on the streets and same-old same-old in the sheets. According to Wolff, it was Ivanka's idea to trade DACA for the border wall, for starters.

So, meh, can be skipped, but good that it exists for posterity's sake.
