Resumen del Editor

The world needs a strong America, and America needs an economic revival after the coronavirus season of shutdowns. Can the playbook that resulted in the greatest job market in history put Americans back to work?

From the first moments of his presidency, Donald J. Trump put US economic revival at the top of his agenda. Cutting red tape and slashing business tax rates made companies eager to locate in America again. A surge in corporate investment led to record numbers of US job openings.

But there was also another force at work at the start of the Trump era, and it’s impossible to provide a fair accounting of Trump’s governance without noting the unique obstacles he’s faced. The president’s critics styled themselves “The Resistance”, as if they were confronting a tyrant at the head of an invading army rather than their duly elected president. Much of the media establishment regularly - and wrongly - accused him of betraying the country. Most disturbing was the resistance movement inside government, formed even before the 2016 election, which unleashed unprecedented surveillance against Donald Trump.

The political and media warfare has never ended. Just as an impeachment case collapsed in the Senate earlier this year, the world was beginning to realize how large a threat the Chinese communist government had become - and what it had been hiding in Wuhan. The destruction caused by the coronavirus is the latest and greatest test for the Trump prosperity agenda.

Once again the health and wealth of the world depend on US leadership for economic revival. This is the story of the man US voters chose to lead in 2016 and will soon consider to lead again.

mandatory reading all elected officials

this is an eye-opening review of what we've all witnessed with Trump Administration as unorthodox as it seems to those who have been in office for years and years and years that is exactly what was needed
anyone who believes that Trump is anything other than a patriot has got to be wrong at least in this account of his administration

Great book. Only 2 months too late

Remarkable disclosure of all of what Trump did. Wish it came two crucial months earlier

Every citizen MUST READ THIS BOOK TO BE PREPARED FOR WHAT CORRUPT GOV AND MEDIA CAN DO TO CITIZENS

Every citizen needs to read this fantastically organized compilation of facts and the chronology of events that transpired during the dems trying to impeach and oust our President. The level of corruption the FBI And the Democratic Party did is ASTOUNDING. I used to be proud to tell my friends that my brother worked for the FBI .. now that formerly prestigious place is forever sullied. If they can do these things to a President and a General can you imagine the lies and things they can do to ordinary citizens. Money and power and corruption, this is why we must have term limits and special jail time for corruption, then it’s even more astounding that the mainstream media backed up all the corruption! I will never watch abc Cbs Nbc news again. THEY ALL LIE and believe their own lies. Maria Bartiromo has written with James Freeman a book that should be studied and listened to here on audible by everyone especially students in school so they can hear the TRUTH ABOUT OUR CORRUPT FBI AND DEM POLITICIANS, and especially the media we used to trust. I used to work for CBS AND I BELIEve THE FOUNDER, Bill Paley must be turning over in his grave today . There is no such thing now as fair and honest reporting in mainstream media, listening to MARIA NARRATE THIS BOOK WILL KEEP YOU AMAZED ANd ASTOUNDED AND YOU WONT BE ABLE TO STOP LISTENING. Thank you Maria and James.

How China has infiltrated US policy and politics

Maria reports how corruption in the White House negatively effects the US people’s economy and democracy.

Story unfolded masterfully

This story revealed itself logically, factually and was peppered with humorous quips and insights only an insider like Maria could share. Of course Trump told Xi about Syria over chocolate cake!

Awesome Book

Loved it ! Great facts, very informative and concise. People need to know the truth about all this. Knowledge is power!

Big Fan

I’m a fan of Maria and her shows. One of the few left at Fox that I follow. Good book!

Maria a class act reporter

Maria did a great job laying down the facts and assumptions. Good job on timeline.

Couldn’t put it down

I rarely, if ever, wish a book were longer than originally published. The Cost is the exception… Simply outstanding!
