About this listen

 In this “scrupulously reported biography” (NPR) Jordan documents how Melania Trump had discussing being First Lady nearly two decades before she landed in the White House and how she encouraged her husband to enter the race for president.

Based on interviews with more than one hundred people in five countries, The Art of Her Deal: The Untold Story of Melania Trump is “an extraordinary work” (Salon) that draws an unprecedented portrait of the first lady. We see that behind the scenes Melania Trump is not only part of President Trump’s inner circle, but for some key decisions she has been his single most influential advisor.

Jordan interviewed key people in Melania's close circle who speak publicly for the first time and uncovered never-before-seen photos and tapes of the tall woman with “tiger eyes,” as a judge in an early modeling contest said. The Art of Her Deal shows Melania’s ascent from a modest life, tracing her journey from childhood under a communist dictator to her complicated relationship with Donald Trump. The picture that emerges is “that the first lady is not a pawn but a player... and a woman able to get what she wants from one of the most powerful and transparently vain men in the world” (NPR).

And while it is her husband who became famous for the phrase “the art of the deal,” this is the story of the art of her deal. Art & Literature Entertainment & Celebrities Politicians Politics & Activism Women Celebrity First Lady Biography

An insightful book into a female Donald Trump which shows every relationship a transaction and no interests outside 'self care'. Melania Trump's contribution to the birtherism that surrounded Barack Obama should be her shame and only legacy and shows her to be a willing co-conspirator in triggering the deep racism threading through American culture. But at all times she looks after immigrants who do matter to her- her own parents -not dissimilar to many other immigrants hoping for a better life. This books shows that she 'really doesn't care' about anything much at all other than limitless self care and immediate family. The use of pressure points to re- negotiate her pre-nuptial was transparent self care and so Donald. A fascinating insight into an adult woman without need or interest in working, being financially independent or contributing to any human concern outside herself and immediate family.

Mary Jordan is such a credible author I thought there must be more to Melania than meets the eye....10 hours later I was sadly disappointed. Elusive or not there is simply no story here.....model marries rich narcissistic moron for money and security....yawn

As a boring a subject as I had assumed
