Summary
The instant #1 bestseller.

“This taut and terrifying book is among the most closely observed accounts of Donald J. Trump’s shambolic tenure in office to date.'
- Dwight Garner, The New York Times

Washington Post national investigative reporter Carol Leonnig and White House bureau chief Philip Rucker, both Pulitzer Prize winners, provide the definitive insider narrative of Donald Trump’s presidency
 
“I alone can fix it.” So proclaimed Donald J. Trump on July 21, 2016, accepting the Republican presidential nomination and promising to restore what he described as a fallen nation. Yet as he undertook the actual work of the commander in chief, it became nearly impossible to see beyond the daily chaos of scandal, investigation, and constant bluster. In fact, there were patterns to his behavior and that of his associates. The universal value of the Trump administration was loyalty—not to the country, but to the president himself—and Trump’s North Star was always the perpetuation of his own power. 

With deep and unmatched sources throughout Washington, D.C., Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker reveal the forty-fifth president up close. Here, for the first time, certain officials who felt honor-bound not to divulge what they witnessed in positions of trust tell the truth for the benefit of history.

A peerless and gripping narrative, A Very Stable Genius not only reveals President Trump at his most unvarnished but shows how he tested the strength of America’s democracy and its common heart as a nation.

Timely, well organized and documented. Frightening.

Gives a very poignant look into the three ring circus that was the Trump presidency.

I enjoyed this book a lot! I’ll be real prized this book is not made in to a movie! I listen to it in one week end because I couldn’t put it down!

Based on actual interviews with the people who worked in the Trump administration, this book gives us more depth than the news reports of the day. Students of history reading it years from now will get a terrifying sense of what was happening during the time the 45th president of the United States was in office. The narrator did a great job with a clear, concise reading of this book.

The book is ok but the narrator speaks way too slowly. It distracted me from the content of the book.
