Politics & Power

The title is Trump's own word for an election he lost. Wolff's third Trump book covers the stretch from the 2020 election through Inauguration Day, including January 6 and the second impeachment, and by then the experienced aides are gone, so you're watching Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell carry the fraud claims.

Core ideas
  • Who was left: Seasoned aides and lawyers who wouldn't back overturning the result walked away, leaving loyalists to mount legal challenges in several states.
  • Coverage over governing: Trump comes across as more absorbed in how events were playing in the media than in briefings or governing.
  • Loyalty runs one way: In this account Giuliani ends up frozen out and unpaid, and Trump shows contempt for the rioters he urged on.
