Excellent. It gives you the story from inside and behind close doors. I read this Thanksgiving weekend and even though Donald Trump was not my candidate of choice, after reading this book, I was so thankful Hillary did not win the election for President.

This book gives the details we all deserve to know. I could not put this book down. Who could ever trust politics to stay out of the rule of law and real justice anymore? DC is corrupt to the core they all need to retire but a handful.

Mr. Klein must have the patience of Job to have done so thorough a job of researching Hilary Clinton's astounding catalogue of lifelong wrongdoings. Although I have no credentials whatsoever in psychology, I long ago came to the conclusion that Ms. Clinton is a very intelligent but also a very troubled person, She seems to say and do whatever occurs to her at the moment, whether what she says is true or not, or what she does makes sense or not. She lost the election, and has scarcely spoken about her loss. She just keeps plugging along as if nothing had happened. American voters did the right thing for the country and, oddly enough, for her as well.

This was a good telling of the corruption surrounding Hillary Clinton, her illegal email server, Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative corruption, and the lies and deception she used to avoid prosecution. Great read.

Maybe some new details not included in other books. I keep reading about Hillary's life, expecting to be able to agree with the media. But I do not understand why they want America to become like Europe. Socialism does not work. Some of the program's she wants will continue to bankrupt our country.

Clearly a very eye opening read! I knew the government was corrupt but this takes to a whole new level. Learned a lot about how everyone ties together and the hate amongst the Obamas and Clintons. The detail of the email scandal is really explained here. Scary path our country is headed down if Hilary wins this election!

A must read by all citizens. This book is so good that all ten copies disappeared from our local library and more copies from the university shelves before any were signed-out. They just "disappeared." Imagine that.

I wish everybody would be forced to read books about both of the candidates before placing their votes.
If the media would print one quarter of the truth about Hillary Clinton she would not have a chance in hell. Unfortunately the media works for the Democratic party which has been proven now.
I can only hope the American people are not as stupid as I fear they are.

On the political spectrum I couldn't be considered far right or far left. I'm one of those people who can usually see both sides of an issue. I like to try to dwell on the positive most of the time. But I do have a guilty pleasure. Sometimes I want a dose of gossip. And I feel that when it comes to politicians it's good to know as much as possible about how they operate behind closed doors. I am going to confess as at least one other reviewer did, that the details of the corruption involving the Clintons was sometimes hard to follow. I don't think I'm knowledgeable enough to be able to say whether all of Klein's allegations are factual or not. They seem well documented. But when I got to the end of the book I started to get suspicious. It started becoming obvious to me in those final pages that Klein is to the far right on the political spectrum. So being that he is writing about people who are more to the left politically, things start to get a little fishy.
Just for the record, I am a white Christian woman. I am an American citizen. The facts and statistics Klein has compiled in the final pages of his book might be interesting to those on the far right politically, but they are certainly moot points for people who would rather be considered non-partisan or moderate. Now I wish I could quote him, but would you believe my copy of his book has temporarily disappeared? Maybe I threw it somewhere in disgust! So I can't give you any exact figures, but he is concerned about the percentage of white Americans. Our numbers are dwindling! I remember many years ago when I first heard Pat Buchanan mention this. But if we are interested in the welfare of all humans, such percentages shouldn't matter. He also noted that the number of Christians goes down one percentage point a year. And so? What is your point, Mr. Klein? He noted that atheists and agnostics now make up about 25% of the population. Once again, Mr. Klein, what is your problem? Then of course he noted that our country's definition of marriage is changing. Okay, I'll admit here that there are good people on both sides of the marriage issue. I'll cut him some slack there. I might even cut him some slack on the transgender issue although I really am tired of hearing about our restroom problem! But I realize that we do have some understandable conflicts in this regard. But our dwindling white population and our dwindling Christian population are issues that we don't have control over (unless we force white people to start reproducing more or insist that more people begin committing to Christianity). This over-emphasis on demographics is strangely reminiscent of Hitler, I'm afraid, which is beyond scary. And then just to get people like me and Amy Schumer and all the women who are sick and tired of fat bigots really angry, he just happened to mention that we have become a more "coarse" society over the years. Why look at our women--some of them weigh as much as the average man weighed back in the day (I'm paraphrasing). Now coarse, according to the dictionary, means boorish or extremely rude. Weight may be a health issue. But how does it have anything to do with personality--how does it make us "coarse"? All of these things he lists in order to somehow prove that our society is in a "decline"--that we are "deteriorating." How scary is that? I'd like to let him know that I know some of the finest people imaginable who are in same-sex marriages, who don't believe in a deity but who are upstanding citizens in every sense of the word, and who are members of a variety of races, religions, and backgrounds. And I may not know any transgender people personally, but I have read many books (they say reading gives you empathy) and some of these people have an incredible amount of courage and strength of character. Perhaps, Mr. Klein, if you want to write books to expose the lives of those you consider corrupt, make sure that you don't color the books with your own prejudice.

I read Clinton cash before the general election and now this. I'm appalled how deep the river of corruption is, I hope Donald Trump seeks to bring justice to bear on the Clinton machine and restore faith in the system!

Revealing novel about the "true" Hillary Clinton. For all the hand-wringing and character assassination of who and what Trump is, this should bring a chilling realization of what we would have had if she were elected.

Very much enjoyed this book and couldn't put it down! It's refreshing to see a counter balance to the MSM which has protected and adored the Obamas and Clintons much to the detriment of this country. Hillary Clinton will always be synonymous with the words scandals and corruption. Thank God the moral majority in this country had the good sense to reject her!

I am a fan of Edward Klein. He always delivers a well researched tome, but with the dishy, page turning, "prime-time soap" aspects that keep me engaged yet never venture too far over the top. "Guilty As Sin" his latest in what seems to be an on-going series on the "Crooked Clinton" is his best so far. We have all seen the headlines about Hillary Clinton and her ruthless and reckless disregard for anyone or anything except HERSELF.
"Guilty As Sin" starts off with Bill Clinton exited his plane and boarding the plane of Attorney General Loretta Lynch for what has to be the most blatant act of corruption in history. From there, the author lays out the case with sections titled, "Bill" "Barack" & "Big Jim" and takes us through the story which, like many other books is so outrageous in its "you can't make this up but its true" aspect that you want to scream. I know I did. Several times I had to stop reading just to let what I just read process, feeling my blood just boiling. Hillary Clinton is, without any question, this book implies is a seriously mentally disturbed individual. There is simply no other explanation. The section on how the Clinton's and Obamas REALLY feel about one another rang true to my ears. It is all about money and power and scruples be damn. As the book wraps up in Part 9 "Running out of Time" you can feel the desperation of Hillary--and how she will say and do whatever she has to do to prevail. The footnote here of course is the newly released Wikileaks hacked emails which one can hope that not only will it end the reign of terror of this awful woman but be fodder for Mr. Klein's next book which I hope he titles, "Karma Delivered"
Guilty As Sin is riveting, page turning. And I highly recommend.

I like this book very much. Hillary is mean, evil, and willing to do whatever is necessary for the power, fame, and fortune she craves. The one thing that always rings true is that she let four Americans die in Benghazi so that she might have the glory and fame for which she strives.

I made a prediction back in May that the fix was in early on from BHO on down in the pecking order...this was further exemplified after Bill met with Lynch (according to both, this was not prearranged!) 2 months later. Thereafter, Comey announced he would not recommend indictment of HRC because she was "recklessly careless." The statute calls for "gross negligence". Recklessly careless = grossly negligent...to add insult to injury he made the bold assertion that no reasonable prosecutor would recommend indictment (this is patently false)
I believe the FBI director's position is one of trust with the American people and that he clearly violated that trust. He should therefore resign.

Clinton exposed for the liar and corrupt human that she is and thank God she is not our president. This is a must-read for liberals out there who idolize the Clintons without knowing a thing about them.

When Hillary ran for President it was the first time since 1968 that I did not vote for the Democratic candidate for President. Nevertheless I could not believe more than three quarters of the assertions the author makes in this book.This is because many of the most negative "facts" are ascribed to persons identified, for example, as close family friends etc. It isn't credible that such persons would engage in vicious gossip about a good friend. In sum, my advice to a potential reader is that if you want an anti-Hillary polemic and don't require substantive documentation, buy this book.

This book rips all the curtains away as to what is going on with the Clinton Cover up. Obama couldn't get Biden or Warren to run so even with a deep seated hate for Hillary and Bill Clinton, he is doing what he can to have all her crimes covered up in order to keep the White House in democratic control.
Comey is not the bad guy here, he wants to convict Hillary, in fact considers this the holy grail of prosecutions. But Obama, Lynch, and the powers that be tied his hands. But it's all unraveling now. A must read, it will answer so many questions.

An excellent recap of who we intuitively know (Hillary Clinton) is evil and capable of leading the further destruction of the USA. Klein can write with the best. The founders knew this would happen and designed our Constitution to prevent the loss of our freedom. The progressives or whatever you want to call them, are winning because we are outnumbered by moochers and idiots. Not idiots in the psychological ranking system but rather in their creed. Read this book and resist. Our opponents don't read, they only destroy. Prepare for the revolution.

Hillary has had a long history of scandals, beginning with Whitewater (1992), Travelgate (1993), Vincent Foster's Death (1993), Paul Jones/Monica Lewinsky (1994), Filegate (1996), Johnny Chung (1996), John Huang (1995), John Trie (1998), Pardongate (2000), Renting the Lincoln Bedroom, Benghazi (2012), Clinton Foundation (2015), and her Private Email Server (2015). There were others. For example, over half (85/156 --> $156 million) the private citizens granted access to Hillary while she was Secretary of State donated to the Clinton Foundation. Even Chelsea cashed in, getting a $600,000 salary from NBC, far greater than many of its other correspondents.
Klein asserts that her 'Fatal Flaw' is dishonesty - that she lies even when she doesn't have to. I'd hate to have to debate anyone to the contrary.
While Hillary was secretary of state, 65% of Americans had held a favorable view of her. Three months after launching her campaign, only 42% had a variable view and the trend was downward. Sixty percent of Americans considered her 'untrustworthy.

Absolutely riveting and factual. Ed has a repuatation of reporting from deep inside the Washington elites and he exposes the nasty history of the Clinton's and their 'in the gutter' politics. All Americans should read this book prior to casting their vote for POTUS.

I bought this book from BN.com so it will not show up as a verified purchase. If you want clarity of what is going on with Email-gate, Foundation-gate and everything that is being investigated and revealed regarding the Clintons then DOWNLOAD THIS BOOK TODAY! Very readable, informative and make the obtuse web of storylines and lies into a clear case. It is scary that this is what is going on in our country today and that the press covers for the Clintons to the extent that they do. It makes me sad that finding out the truth is no longer on the front page of our newspapers or our daily newscasts. Rather we have to find books like this to tell the story. Ed Klein is the closest thing we have to a Bernstein and Woodward these days. READ THIS BOOK.

This book makes sense of the FBI Director's decision not to recommend indictment of Hillary Clinton. Though I don't like unnamed sources there is a strong ring of truth in what Klein writes. I highly recommend this read.

Ed Stein has done another wonderful job of researching his "heroine" for this book. But, there really wasn't much that I learned about the lying, cheating, hateful woman, Hillary Clinton. And I am certain that most Democrats will ignore the facts, as usual and we possibly will end up with a mean spirited, filthy mouthed,lying, nasty person as our first woman POTUS. And I am sure I will get all sorts of nasty comments for this review. It is a real shame that the first woman POTUS has to have some of the most sickening character traits of any human being in government. But, it seems that's the way we roll in this country at this point in time. SHAMEFUL.

Generally, I vehemently oppose political literature as the writer and/or sources merely have a proverbial axe to grind; however, I was pleased with the extensive research, innate attention to detail, and overall direction with which this book went.

This book makes you wonder how the Clintons have continued to be involved in corruption all these years and we as Americans either weren't told or ignored what was going on. It makes you wonder about the justice system and all the cover-ups going on today. Will the Clintons EVER face justice. Two sets of rules , one for us lowly hardworking American's and the other for the corrupt people in politics. Sickening

As much as I dislike the Clintons, I am always disappointed in Mr. Klein's books. He never reveals his sources, never produces a "smoking gun". He has made a substantial living off hating the Clintons, but never comes up with anything we can't read in the newspapers or online. He compares himself to Bob Woodward as an author, but lacks in credibility. The title of the book includes the phrase: "Uncovering New Evidence..." but the book fails to produce anything new. I keep hoping one day he will produce some solid new evidence that can actually be used to convict Bill and Hillary of their wrongdoings. But all he gives us is hearsay and innuendo. I hope he's gotten paid a lot for his work. Now that Hillary is gone, who will he write about?

This is a great book and uncovers back story details about the Clintons. They are both guilty as sin. I hope anyone thinking of voting for Hillary, should read this book first. Awesome book from Edward Klein. Great book!

The previous book I reviewed was Hillary Clinton's It Takes a Village.
The last Edward Klein book I finished on Hillary was The Truth about Hillary back in 2007. Klein has now made a career cranking these books out. This one particularly focuses on why Comey and the FBI did not indict Hillary earlier in 2016. Klein always cites unnamed sources who are "close to Clinton" or "close to Valerie Jarrett" and who he interviewed "25 times" or "12 times" or whatever. In some cases, he gives clues about "friends of Hillary" that could only be boiled down to a handful of people. These well-meaning people are concerned enough about our country to leak quietly and anonymously to Edward Klein, apparently. There is enough hyperbole and insinuation that you have no idea what probability of truth to assign to any of Klein's statements. Anything he does not directly attribute to "a source" I consider to be completely false. For example, Klein's claim that President Obama doesn't really want to be on the Supreme Court because he enjoys being the rockstar in crowds with "swooning women" more than being an academic. Often, Klein's source is Klein's other books. Klein's stories of what happens behind closed doors are also too detailed to be true. He didn't see the arched eyebrow or slumped shoulders, but they're clear in his mind.
The author writes that President Obama initially supported the FBI investigation because he hates the Clintons and hoped his friend Joe Biden would get into the race instead. Valerie Jarrett has been the source of leaks about Hillary over the years, because she also despises her. Oddly, Klein has always maintained that Obama loves Joe Biden while Daniel Halper (Clinton, Inc.) claims the exact opposite. When Biden declined to run and no one viable challenged Hillary, Obama changed his tune but cannot legally sack James Comey. After AG Lynch began pressuring Comey to not indict, including after the uncomfortable visit by Bill Clinton on her airplane, Comey got his revenge with his press conference laying out all the laws Hillary did indeed violate before concluding he would not pursue indictment. Lynch angrily watched his conference on TV, thinking he was going to indict before he announced he wouldn't. Klein cites "sources close to Comey" that Comey believes he is the cowboy detective and Hillary Clinton is his John Dillinger. (Klein would probably say Comey's press release a week before the election was also revenge.)
Like many of the conspiracy theorists that write on the Clintons, Klein engages in various armchair psychiatry. Huma Abedin and Hillary may not be sexually involved, but they have a co-dependent relationship. Huma needs a figure like Hillary, and Hillary needs someone who knows how to keep her calm. Otherwise, Hillary sometimes engages in fits where she pulls out her hair, or throws a champagne glass or flower vase across the room. Hillary does much drinking, cursing, and throwing in these pages.
Besides the factual breaches of the law that Comey decided not to indict on, Klein cites other sources. A Foreign Service officer testified to the FBI that Hillary would mix Clinton Foundation business and State Department business on official trips, she maintained binders with labels for both organizations on airplanes. The hacker Guccifer alleges that when he was hacking Hillary's server, he saw IPs of others outside the US as well, and the Clinton organization shut down the server for a time because they knew it had been hacked-- contrary to what they'd stated. Klein opines that Clinton will likely be blackmailed or exploited as President because of what the hackers got.
Perhaps Klein's only good point comes in regards to Hillary's medical history. When the Clinton campaign team produced a doctor's claim that Hillary swims, does yoga, and other exercise and does not drink much alcohol, Klein asks where the evidence is. Why do we not have any reports of Hillary's exercise regime or even hear from someone who has been to yoga or the pool with her? Instead, we see stories in the New York Times and other publications (where Hillary has been endorsed) that Hillary asks a general for a beer, but never that she got her workout in. Klein cites a "friend of Hillary's" that she has frequent feinting spells, probably due to her proclivity to blood clots. None of that really bothers me. You get a dietician at the White House and the Secret Service basically forces some exercise (although Klein writes that the SS hates Hillary). We've had Presidents with polio, drug problems, and a debilitating stroke and survived as a nation. She's 70, and a cross-country 24/7 campaign is a lot different than governing.
Bill Clinton, meanwhile, gets foot massages from interns working at his Presidential library. The penthouse suite in the library serves as his "love nest" that Hillary does not sleep in when she comes to town. Bill sometimes calls the shots via telephone, although his aides worry that he is becoming somewhat senile and weak in his old age, and more of a liability. Obama was willing to campaign for Hillary simply because he hates Trump more than Bill, writes Klein.
What about Trump, who Klein urges the reader to vote for? Klein hangs out on Trump's jet and paints a picture of a man no more likable than any Democrat in the book. Trump is arguing with a television and constantly having conversations with everyone who comes on TV. He is going through newspapers and doling out criticisms and kudos. If Hillary is paranoid, so is Trump. Klein gives a brief recap of 2016 and all of Trump's offenses. Trump does not come across as any better than Klein's Hillary.
Yet, Klein devotes the end of the book to a very long rant about why the reader should only vote for Trump. He writes that a vote for Hillary is a vote for more tattooed people, lower church attendance, a drug epidemic, and a "rising body count" from Islamic terrorism on our streets, among other problems. Only Trump can "make America great again." I find it odd, then, that I see a lot of proudly tattooed people at Trump rallies on TV and I imagine there are a lot of oxycontin and heroin addicts around America voting for Trump as well as Hillary. Klein's own reasoning is inadequate to grasp that America's character and morality are not determined by who lives in the White House.
I give this book about 1.5 stars. It is entertaining (except the rant at the end), but I would be surprised if more than 20 percent is true. We'll never know. As it is, I recommend Hillary's books instead as they're far more interesting.

Klein opines that Clinton will likely be blackmailed or exploited as President because of what the hackers got.
Perhaps Klein's only good point comes in regards to Hillary's medical history. When the Clinton campaign team produced a doctor's claim that Hillary swims, does yoga, and other exercise and does not drink much alcohol, Klein asks where the evidence is. Why do we not have any reports of Hillary's exercise regime or even hear from someone who has been to yoga or the pool with her? Instead, we see stories in the New York Times and other publications (where Hillary has been endorsed) that Hillary asks a general for a beer, but never that she got her workout in. Klein cites a "friend of Hillary's" that she has frequent feinting spells, probably due to her proclivity to blood clots. None of that really bothers me. You get a dietician at the White House and the Secret Service basically forces some exercise (although Klein writes that the SS hates Hillary). We've had Presidents with polio, drug problems, and a debilitating stroke and survived as a nation. She's 70, and a cross-country 24/7 campaign is a lot different than governing.
Bill Clinton, meanwhile, gets foot massages from interns working at his Presidential library. The penthouse suite in the library serves as his "love nest" that Hillary does not sleep in when she comes to town. Bill sometimes calls the shots via telephone, although his aides worry that he is becoming somewhat senile and weak in his old age, and more of a liability. Obama was willing to campaign for Hillary simply because he hates Trump more than Bill, writes Klein.
What about Trump, who Klein urges the reader to vote for? Klein hangs out on Trump's jet and paints a picture of a man no more likable than any Democrat in the book. Trump is arguing with a television and constantly having conversations with everyone who comes on TV. He is going through newspapers and doling out criticisms and kudos. If Hillary is paranoid, so is Trump. Klein gives a brief recap of 2016 and all of Trump's offenses. Trump does not come across as any better than Klein's Hillary.
Yet, Klein devotes the end of the book to a very long rant about why the reader should only vote for Trump. He writes that a vote for Hillary is a vote for more tattooed people, lower church attendance, a drug epidemic, and a "rising body count" from Islamic terrorism on our streets, among other problems. Only Trump can "make America great again." I find it odd, then, that I see a lot of proudly tattooed people at Trump rallies on TV and I imagine there are a lot of oxycontin and heroin addicts around America voting for Trump as well as Hillary. Klein's own reasoning is inadequate to grasp that America's character and morality are not determined by who lives in the White House.
I give this book about 1.5 stars. It is entertaining (except the rant at the end), but I would be surprised if more than 20 percent is true. We'll never know. As it is, I recommend Hillary's books instead as they're far more interesting.

That this book was written by Edward Klein and published by the right-wing publisher Regnery Publishing will immediately indicate that this will not be a book Hillary supporters will wish to read, let alone buy. Her opponents will probably have read many of the stories before, but for neutrals (if there are still any at this time) this book is a fascinating collection of what goes on behind the scenes at the highest levels in American politics.
The primary character is the one whose face appears (behind orange bars) on the book jacket – Hillary Rodham Clinton. There is an interesting story of how she changed her name from Hillary Rodham to Hillary Clinton, to Hillary Rodham Clinton (with emphasis on the ‘Rodham’), and finally, to ‘Hillary!’
The main story about Hillary Clinton in the book is on the subject of her using her private email for official business. The slant in the book and the insinuations when one reads it in context is that Hillary Clinton had too many shady deals that she did not want recorded on government records and open to scrutiny. Klein writes that she deleted stuff as she pleased – which, of course, is not right if she was on government work. There is that ‘Freedom of Information Act’ too.
Another aspect concerns Hillary’s abuse of power, and how, together with Bill Clinton they managed to secure lucrative contracts and speaking assignments. The language, even when quoting others, is unrestrained (‘Hillary’s compulsive money-lust and her brazen indifference to normal rules’).
The book is not just about her. There are chapters on Joe Biden and how and why he was selected as Obama’s VP, and also on Donald Trump. That included an almost comical account of how his personal body guard, a former NYPD detective, carries a bottle of hand sanitizer, a can of hairspray, and a compact makeup for Trump.
There is also an account of the ‘blood feud’ between the Clintons and the Obamas, but that has to be read with Obama’s open support for the Hillary campaign, and Klein’s case that he ensured that Hillary was not charged for the private email saga. If one wants to know about Hillary’s health, there is also a section on that.
If the book was not so partial it might deserve a four star, three is the best a neutral can give.

I could not put this book down. Interestingly enough, I went to a Barnes and Noble to purchase the book. It was hidden from view. It took an employee 10 minutes to locate the book. It was on an end cap in the back of the store by the magazines on the bottom shelf with the covers turned to the back. If I had not known the name of the book and was persistent in leaving the store with a copy, I would have had zero idea that it was even available for purchase. Shame.

Democrats hate facts, but I find it refreshing. This book uncovers some truths that the media has been fighting to cover up. You can hope justice prevails, but whether or not crooked Hillary goes to jail, it's important to learn some truths via this engaging book. You'll be thankful Trump / Pence won the election, that's for sure!

Even though I knew a lot about Hillary Clinton, this book revealed issues I was unaware of, such her intense bouts of anger, her health issues and her unremitting tendency to lie. We are very lucky as a nation to have dodged a bullet.

Great read, very informative. It cleared up information about the Clintons I had already suspected and reaffirmed my extreme dislike towards them. We're living in a scary world when this type of person can run for president of the United States of America. It's a shame that these liberal sheep continue to praise her regardless of all the awful illegal things she's done...

Read this book. Whatever you think you know, you will find out more. No matter how dulled your emotions have become, you will be shocked and outraged. It's the best book Klein has done. The facts are judiciously assembled, and the narrative flows smoothly. It's true that you can't put it down -- except to call your friends.

Lot of good investigative work. I was amazed at the clarity of the connections between the Clintons, their foundation and the state department actions - rampant corruption exposed. Well written and well sourced.

This is a fascinating work of propaganda. If you want to know facts and get an accurate portrayal of the clintons, look elsewhere. If you just want someone to reinforce what you already believe, you found it

Very well written and researched by the master of facts- Ed Klein. Although these historical facts are not popular with today's media, they need to be part of our daily dialogue with friends, family, coworkers, etc. Highly recommended.

Another confirmation that this woman is one of the most corrupt, entitled, robotic politicians of all time.
The very personification of evil, this book provides evidence of just how far she has gone, and would have continued to go, to pursue absolute power.
Thank God for the truth tellers!

Nothing in this book is believable. Too many innuendos, quotes from "former FBI, friend who knew someone in conversation, friend who would know, etc. " Stupid book. I will never read another book by this writer.

Well this book was entertaining to say the least. Throughout out it I couldn't help but feel like bits of the truth were being stretched. It often read like work of fiction, although there is undoubtedly plenty of truth in the book. After reading more about Ed Klein, I suspect he may be up to his old tricks with this installment.
It was the epilogue that really rubbed me the wrong way. He spoke of moral decline brought on by the left, taking to moral high ground in a way that reminded me a lot of a leftist. Among what was cited was tattoos, legalization of marijuana, and the rise of the religiously unaffiliated. It was a sermon that the book could have done without and it was clear to me his political standings were nonsensical.
Overall, take what you read here with a grain of salt. Klein has a reputation of making s*** up to sell books.

Lots of anonymous sources, which makes the information seem less credible. The author mentions his other books way too many times, to the point where I'm thinking this book is just a summary of his other works. If you know anything about Hillary's email scandal from watching the news then there's no point in reading this book.

This is basically a Sidney Sheldon novel: great fiction, no facts. First of all, the Obamas and Clintons have a lot of respect for each other. Secondly, literally nothing in this book can be backed up with evidence. In other words, it's just pages and pages (and more pages) of soap opera bs wherein the author, who's a tabloid journalist and gossip columnist by the way, just makes stuff up.
It's past time for people to start using critical thinking skills rather than seek out "information" that caters to what they want to believe. Furthermore, if I was a Clinton or an Obama, I'd sue for slander. Point blank: The GOP has been witch-hunting Hillary Clinton ever since she was FLOTUS for the grave "sin" of refusing to be wallpaper. Thirty years of this GOP posturing yet nary an indictment. I'm sorry, but NOBODY is that smooth of a criminal; with all the Republicans who want her head served up on a platter, if they had ANY evidence AT ALL on her they'd have been used it. Instead they throw shade by forming senate committee after senate committee to harass her and question her every breath.
There used to be a time in this country when you could dislike someone's politics without falsely disparaging their character and motives. This is a dangerous game the GOP has been playing over the last few decades; eventually it'll come back to bite them in the unmentionables.
