Resumen del Editor

This program is read by the author.

A probing and illuminating analysis of current state of American politics, focusing on Donald Trump’s lie about election fraud, by the White House Bureau Chief of Politico and the host of MSNBC's Way Too Early

Jonathan Lemire uncovers that “The Big Lie,” as it’s been termed, isn’t just about the 2020 election. It's become a political philosophy that has only further divided the two parties.

Donald Trump first tried it out in 2016, at an August rally in Ohio. He said that perhaps he wouldn’t accept the election results in his race against Hillary Clinton, that the election was “rigged.” He then mentioned it at more rallies and even at one of the fall debates. He didn’t have to challenge the result that year, but the stage was set. When he lost in 2020, he started the lie back up again, and to devastating results: an insurrection at the Capitol in January 2021.

Republicans are still wholly under Trump’s sway. From his retirement at his Florida and New Jersey clubs he meets with Republican officials, aspiring candidates, and advisers and demands loyalty to this twisted way of thinking. And Democrats still deal with him as their opposition party is driven by a blatant lie. The parties aren’t divided by the aisle—they’re on different planets.

In the more than five tumultuous, paradigm-shifting years of Donald Trump’s presidency and beyond, his near-constant lying has become a fixture of political life. It is inextricably linked with how his party behaves, how the Democrats respond to it, and how he remains relevant, even after a decisive loss in 2020. Jonathan Lemire brings his connections, profile, and dogged reportorial instincts to bear in his first book that explores how this phenomenon shapes our politics.

Written with sharp political insight and detailed with dozens of interviews, The Big Lie is the first audiobook to examine this unprecedented and tenuous moment in our nation’s politics.

A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books.

Excellent read!

I found Mr. Lemire's synopsis of the current events surrounding Donald Trump's four year presidential series of absolute continuous failures, embarrassing mistakes, criminal acts of treason and international black mail, dereliction of duty was all spot on and very enlightened. fast read.

Recent Past

It is a great over look of why our country became a mess. In a few words gullibility in the BS the the Trump team was shoveling. Now the next challenge to dig our way out.

Bitingly Honest

Many first hand accounts of one of the most dangerous times for our democracy. Yes, those times were much worse than you thought.

Great book, Great reporter

Gotten to know who Mr. Lemire is through the tv on MSNBC since the Trump fiasco erm Administration. Whenever he's reporting you can count on it being factual...unless he's talking about the Sox...but all of us New Englanders get it LOL.

Glad he narrated himself, that was a pleasant surprise.

Great read.
