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

5.0

Is this a true account of the first nine months of Trump’s tumultuous presidency, or is it a case of alternative facts? I’ll leave that for you to decide, but I will say, it is a fascinating read if for nothing else than to document the facts of what his first year in office entailed. I’m talking about the explosive, rambling tweets, the showdown with the media, the child like speeches that he gives, the multiple staff firings, the Russian collusion investigation etc. These undeniable facts of his presidency, in the documented form of a book, makes FIRE AND FURY worth owning. I am sure that some (if not many) of the behind the scenes scenarios described in this book as these situations unfolded, are probably true. And also in some cases (if not many) only partially true. Again, I’ll leave that for you to decide. I am sure this book is going to be talked about for some time to come, but will it’s appeal last? That’s hard to say. Will it cause growing problems for the Trump administration? That is also hard to say, but I think the Trump administration in and of itself will continue to spawn growing problems from its own petulant and elementary design, regardless if this book disappears from the public conscience next week.
