Front Row at the Trump Show

Meer over het boek

An unprecedented account from a White House reporter who has known President Trump for over 25 years reveals the reshaping of the presidency. This powerful book offers a unique perspective on a norm-breaking, rule-busting leader, viewed as dangerously reckless by some and a necessary force for change by others. Jonathan Karl, having covered Trump longer than any other reporter, provides extraordinary access during the campaign and at the White House. His essential reporting and surprising insights capture the behind-the-scenes moments that define Trump's presidency, showcasing his unlikely rise and the struggles faced by those within the administration and the press. Karl takes readers from a TV set turned campaign office to the quiet of Inauguration Day and a high-stakes reelection campaign poised to alter the nation’s trajectory. He illustrates an administration rewriting presidential roles in real-time, while the press corps adapts to unprecedented challenges. This narrative is made possible by the complex relationship between Trump and Karl, marked by praise, conflict, and branding as an enemy of the people. This is a front-row seat to the extraordinary events of the Trump administration.
