“A book historians will relish.”—Peggy Noonan, Wall Street Journal

"Must read. I've read every book about the Trump presidency. This is the best."—Bill Press

An account like no other from the White House reporter who has known President Donald Trump for more than 25 years.

We have never seen a president like this...norm-breaking, rule-busting, dangerously reckless to some and an overdue force for change to others. One thing is clear: We are witnessing the reshaping of the presidency.

Jonathan Karl brings us into the White House in a powerful book unlike any other on the Trump administration. He's known and covered Donald Trump longer than any other White House reporter. With extraordinary access to Trump during the campaign and at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Karl delivers essential new reporting and surprising insights.

These are the behind-the-scenes moments that define Trump's presidency—an extraordinary look at the president, the person, and those closest to him. This is the real story of Trump's unlikely rise; of the struggles and battles of those who work in the administration and those who report on it; of the plots and schemes of a senior staff enduring stunning and unprecedented unpredictability.

Karl takes us from a TV set turned campaign office to the strange quiet of Trump's White House on Inauguration Day to a high-powered reelection campaign set to change the country's course. He shows us an administration rewriting the role of the president on the fly and a press corps that has never been more vital. Above all, this book is only possible because of the surprisingly open relationship Donald Trump has had with Jonathan Karl, a reporter he has praised, fought, and branded an enemy of the people.

This is Front Row at the Trump Show.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Jonathan Karl gives us much more than program notes for The Trump Show in this revealing and personal account of his relationship with our 45th President. We learn what it is really like to be on the White House beat, about the peculiarities of dealing with the personality in the Oval Office, and ultimately the risks and dangers we face at this singular moment in American history." (Mike McCurry, former White House Press Secretary (1995-98), Director/Professor, Center for Public Theology, Wesley Theological Seminary)

"The Constitution is strict: It says we must have presidents. Fortunately, we occasionally have reporters as talented as Jonathan Karl—an acute observer and gifted writer—to record what presidents do. Karl is exactly the right journalist to chronicle the 45th president, who is more—to be polite—exotic than his predecessors." (George F. Will)

"No reporter has covered Donald Trump longer and with more energy than Jonathan Karl. It pays off in his account of what he calls the Trump Show with some startling scoops. What did the president scrawl across the rejected resignation letter from his attorney general? He tells us." (Susan Page, Washington Bureau chief, USA Today)

Truth

Thank you Jonathan Karl for continuing to bring us the facts in this chaotic time in our history.

Excellent!

Very insightful, narration by Jonathan Karl so meaningful, shocking that our President would act so u professional & be so self centered!!

Really Really Good!

When The Trump Team went into Prevent D mode & did not debate Ted Cruz & my conservative legends in my mind rolled over & endorsed Trump I turned off radio, tv, news for 3 1/2 yrs. Lost myself in books on history, health & fitness. I have learned alot more about history I am more fit, & have better health. When I felt I needed to know what has gone on for the past 42 months politically I jumped at this chance to listen to, Front Row & The Trump Show. Enjoyed it Immensely!

Best book on the Trump Comedy

John Karl got great advice from his stepdad...never stop writing! This book is a gem! It is easily the least biased, best written book on the subject of the Trump rule! I didn’t want it to end! Thank you John...keep ‘em coming! I loved it! I have read every book on the subject and this by far ranks 1st.

Judith Albarelli

An eye opening witness to the complete fiasco.

Loved it and struggled to stop listening to the fiasco that is happening at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

You can't make this stuff up!

Loved this. Jonathan Karl's narration was great. Highly recommend!
When I saw the title of this book it immediately grabbed my attention. As my caption reads, you really cannot make this stuff up! Pretty much everything I have thought about Donald Trump prior to and during his presidency was confirmed here. Thanks Mr. Karl for an enjoyable listen.

Extraordinary!

Well sourced! Well written and a frightening insight into the mind of the greatest threat our democracy has ever known.

Outstanding!

This was an outstanding insight to Washington and Trump! I recommend to everyone I speak to read it!

Fast-moving, engaging and revealing

A well-written insider’s view of the tumultuous Trump years. Karl writes with the clarity and objectivity of a reporter and the flair of a good storyteller.

Now this is fair and balanced.

Written objectively and with a healthy dose of first hand experience, the telling of this book provides a fascinating look into the nooks and crannies of the Trump presidency. It is decidedly different than other accounts of the Trump White House, as the angles it presents are many and told from the perspective of an “inside outsider.” Being a TV reporter, Mr. Karl does an exceptional job narrating as well.
