Review:I loved this book. Although Trump can drive me crazy with his delivery sometimes, this book really explains how he has a full understanding of what is wrong with government today and he is going down the right path to fix it. He is on the money when he uses the term "fake news." The media is correct that what they report is mostly true but it is what they decide to emphasize. For example, in Today's paper front and center in Nation and World section-story about how only 53 of the 105 illega... Read more
Review:Hard to summarize this excellent book. Johnston has studied Trump for 30 years. It is clear Trump and his family are tied to the mob, and it appears the Russian mob too. They are using the highest position in our government to enrich themselves and at the expense of taxpayers. If he continues in power you can expect the GOP agenda of privatizing government services and products. Prices will go up and those services will go down it will be the theft of the property of American citizens. Trump i... Read more
Review:Excellent journalistic reporting. Well written. This book takes a close look at the connections between Russia and Trump players in influencing the election of Donald Trump. It exposes the corrupted outreach and influence that Russia has on our country as well as its attempts to control other countries as well. An informative and troubling read with regard to Russia and willingness of persons in our country to threaten our democracy for power and greed. Read more
Review:This book provides some useful web links, but it is very biased. Morris and McGann propose that what appeared to be Russian interference in the 2016 election was really a conspiracy by the "leftist" FBI, CIA, and British intelligence services to discredit Trump. The last sentence of the book is "He [Trump] is a very good president. Let's fight to keep him in the White House." That pretty much sums up their viewpoint. For a much more thorough, non-partisan analysis of the same issue, read th... Read more

The swamp needs to be drained and President Trump is working hard to do it and the career politicians can't stand it. This book points out how the career politicians and news media are fighting President Trump. Read more
Review:Published before the last presidential election, yet is just as up to date now as it was then. Trump is right on the mark. If you really care about America, give it a read and pay attention to this Patriot! Read more
Review:This book should have been published before the election. I am not sure if it would have made a difference, but it was a very great read. The chronological order of the the essays written for GQ in one book is great. Some of the things written about in this book I remember, some I did not. Good analogy of things Trump has done. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review. Read more
Review:After all of the publicity surrounding this novel, I found the content disappointingly non-stimulating. The character descriptions were good, but strange, and the plot was difficult and frustrating to follow. I would not read this book a second time. Read more
Review:Libertarians love to get bogged down in complicated policy debates, which, while undeniably fun, is not often helpful in converting others to the cause. What Kibbe has so skillfully done here, is succinctly stated the essence of the philosophy right there in the title. Don’t Hurt People and Don’t Take Their Stuff.
Personally, I’m hard pressed to see how anyone could disagree with two so evidently moral and straightforward principles, but the fact remains that many people still do. We have... Read more
Review:This book ties together historical threads which leads to the consistent notion of American exceptionalism. Are we truly making progress or do we simply recycle through the patina of individual liberty covering our desire for certainty and want for caretakers? Th carefully crafted explanation of the never resolved civil war which morphed into ongoing manifold terrorism both physically and verbally continues. The book is clear about this until the year 1968. The last 50 years are given short shri... Read more
