Book Description
THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Michael C. Bender, senior White House reporter for the Wall Street Journal, presents a deeply reported account of the 2020 presidential campaign that details how Donald J. Trump became the first incumbent in three decades to lose reelection—and the only one whose defeat culminated in a violent insurrection. Beginning with President Trump’s first impeachment and ending with his second, FRANKLY, WE DID WIN THIS ELECTION chronicles the inside-the-room deliberations between Trump and his campaign team as they opened 2020 with a sleek political operation built to harness a surge of momentum from a bullish economy, a unified Republican Party, and a string of domestic and foreign policy successes—only to watch everything unravel when fortunes suddenly turned. With first-rate sourcing cultivated from five years of covering Trump in the White House and both of his campaigns, Bender brings readers inside the Oval Office, aboard Air Force One, and into the front row of the movement’s signature mega-rallies for the story of an epic election-year convergence of COVID, economic collapse, and civil rights upheaval—and an unorthodox president’s attempt to battle it all. Fresh interviews with Trump, key campaign advisers, and senior administration officials are paired with an exclusive collection of internal campaign memos, emails, and text messages for scores of never-before-reported details about the campaign. FRANKLY, WE DID WIN THIS ELECTION is the inside story of how Trump lost, and the definitive account of his final year in office that draws a straight line from the president’s repeated insistence that he would never lose to the deadly storming of the U.S. Capitol that imperiled one of his most loyal lieutenants—his own vice president.

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was the Iowa spokesperson for John McCain’s presidential campaign in 2007. The comprehensive immigration reform bill known colloquially by the political class as McCain-Kennedy and by Republican voters as amnesty for illegals was about to be reintroduced in the U. S. Senate. #2 I was extremely nervous and excited to be at the rally. I was hoping McCain would shine and give me some crowd-pleasing answers, but he didn't. He was hit with asperity after asperity after asperity. #3 Eight weeks into his presidential campaign, McCain had to downsize. The front-runner had faltered so dramatically out of the gate, anticipating the populist future. #4 McCain’s pivot on immigration was a minor sacrifice that foreshadowed the much more dangerous panders to come, from other politicians who didn’t share his prudence.

Why We Did It - A Travelogue from the Republican Road to Heal - A Comprehensive Summary A tiny group of Republican elites has controlled a significant portion of the political coverage throughout the Trump era. These Republican leaders are torn between their professional desire to appease the brutal champion chosen by their party's people and their personal disgust for Trump. It is quite justified to pay the Republican elites this kind of obsessive attention. The main factor determining whether a democracy can fend off an authoritarian challenge, according to Daniel Ziblatt and Steven Levitsky How Democracies Die, is whether the aspiring dictator's coalitional allies stay with him and reap the benefits of power or overthrow him and form a pro-democracy coalition with their ideological rivals. They have massively backed Trump and the movement he has created, which rejects the validity of Democratic political victory in any way, as we now know. These Republicans' thought processes have rarely been concealed. They have consistently leaked to the media, which explains both their disdain for the golfer-warlord of their party and their determination that they must continue to forward his agenda, at least in public.

Pages : 294
Book Description
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Former Republican political operative Tim Miller answers the question no one else has fully grappled with: Why did normal people go along with the worst of Trumpism? As one of the strategists behind the famous 2012 RNC “autopsy,” Miller conducts his own forensic study on the pungent carcass of the party he used to love, cutting into all the hubris, ambition, idiocy, desperation, and self-deception for everyone to see. In a bracingly honest reflection on both his own past work for the Republican Party and the contortions of his former peers in the GOP establishment, Miller draws a straight line between the actions of the 2000s GOP to the Republican political class's Trumpian takeover, including the horrors of January 6th. From ruminations on the mental jujitsu that allowed him as a gay man to justify becoming a hitman for homophobes, to astonishingly raw interviews with former colleagues who jumped on the Trump Train, Miller diagrams the flattering and delusional stories GOP operatives tell themselves so they can sleep at night. With a humorous touch he reveals Reince Priebus' neediness, Sean Spicer's desperation, Elise Stefanik and Chris Christie’s raw ambition, and his close friends’ submission to a MAGA psychosis. Why We Did It is a vital, darkly satirical warning that all the narcissistic justifications that got us to this place still thrive within the Republican party, which means they will continue to make the same mistakes and political calculations that got us here, with disastrous consequences for the nation.
