About this listen

New York Times best-selling author of Fire and Fury and Siege completes the trilogy on the epic presidency of Donald J. Trump.

With Fire and Fury, Wolff defined the first phase of the Trump administration; in Siege, he wrote an explosive account of a presidency under fire. In Landslide, Wolff closes the story of Trump's four years in office and his tumultuous last months at the helm of the country, based on Wolff's extraordinary access to White House aides and to the former president himself, yielding a wealth of new information and insights about what really happened inside the highest office in the land, and the world.

I loved this book.

Excellent insider examination of the greatest idiot of our time. Frightening, hilarious, devestating, unbelievable reality that is The Apprentice....I mean ...White House.
2+2=5. Trump won. 7/11 didn't happen.

A fly on the wall of a flaming catastrophe.

A fascinating well written and somewhat terrifying narrative. The most amazing element is the obsequious following of Trump.

Riveting

There's pretty much two (very polarised) views on Trump by now. The view that he's an awful and incompetent person is one, and on the (diminishing) flipside, there are still people turning mental gymnastics in order to justify and re-author a narrative where he's competent.
I evidently fall in the first camp, but it's still hard to find the line between these two sides where the truth sits.
In this book Wolff has seemingly sourced a wealth of first hand material, and it's very illuminating and scary stuff. He doesn't try to pretend he's an impartial party, which both detracts a little from the book but also gives it a lift through some really barbed observations.
If even a portion of this book is accurate, we should all probably consider ourselves lucky that things weren't worse. By the end days the only people left were the panderers and maneuverers trying to ring the last drops of money and fame from this broken administration.
Sadly, this book will be preaching to the choir - I can't imagine a Trump fan finishing this book, or even starting it. Overall, worth a listen. At the very least you can be certain that it's not your normal, slightly dry political memoir - it's utterly bananas at times.

Scary stuff

like him or, like myself, loathe him trump is larger than life. could be a greek god - perhaps of vengeance, pettiness or disalllusion. cant get enough of these stories and leaking. no idea how he stays popular amongst his base. fingers crossed this extreme form of politics loses traction here in aus

trump lets wolff discredit him again

Glimpses into an unfolding situation involving a self centred, lonely, narcissist who surrounded himself with sycophants, traitors, desperates, social climbers and greedy self serving cockadoodles. It is horrifyingly fascinating but ultimately a great story.

Fascinating insights

I listened to the other Michael Wolff Trump books but for some reason I wasn't too enthusiastic about getting this one. maybe because I thought there want much more to say on the subject. I was glad I was wrong about that. The inside story was, once again, very interesting. The narration was excellent and the audio clips of real-life speeches really added to the experience.

Another interesting chapter in the story

It is clear from page one that Michael Wolff is not Donald Trump's greatest fan, but then neither am I so I was able to settle down in my own private echo chamber for eleven hours and gorge on an anti-Trump rollercoaster.

And what a ride! We get an insight in the mind of the world's most famous narcissist, fake news, alternative facts and sycophantic lackies.

Yet there is an element of compassion in there too. We understand that Trump was not necessarily the guy in charge during the fateful events of 6th January 202. Trump was as astonished as everyone else the way things turned out.

The real value of this book is that despite Wolff's antipathy towards Trump, he allows the reader to draw a middle line between those who worship him and those who believe he is the mastermind behind every evil act on the planet. (Trump's just not smart enough to do half the things he's accused of like planning an attack on China!)

Great entertaining book but not recommended if you are of the MAGA persuasion!

How does Michael Wolff get all this stuff?

I am only unsure of the accuracy Jan 6 run up. I am sure he researched it well, and the author's take is plausible but the evidence we all saw of the event, particularly Jr's selfie video of the party-like excitement of the Trump family backstage before the speech sending the mob to the Capitol, indicates that they all hoped for the results the got. no one gets that giddy over a normal speech. they knew and must have had more involvement than this book suggests. Update: the recent news about the attempt to get the DOJ involved in the coup attempt lends credence to my early thoughts that the author was not given accurate info on the WH involvement. I hope he is able to update the book when more news is uncovered.

a horror tale and a fantastic listen

I have read a lot of Micheal Wolff political books about trump and enjoyed them, this was no exception.
An enlightening account of the goings on inside the White House & amongst Trumps cronies during the lead up & after the 2020 election

I know this is an audiobook but I still call it a page turner. The reader was excellent. He reads it like he wrote it. I highly recommend this book.

Excellent. Page turner.
